Just another crazy spider. Spiders seem to be perfect for woodturning with their round bodies and spindly legs. This one is turned entirely from Gambel Oak with the exception of its 6 eyes and its fangs which are cocobolo.
15″ tall, about 12″ across the legs.
This is a lidded box turned from an odd shaped piece of Russian Olive burl.
Scrub Oak birdhouse, 12″ tall, 4″ wide
Maple birdhouse on a Padauk stick. The stick and finial are turned on several axis. 15″ tall.
l to r, Box Elder burl and Cocobolo, Spalted Magnolia and Walnut, Osage Orange. 12-13″ tall
This lidded box is turned from Russian Olive Burl. 13″ tall, 6.5″ wide.
A couple of small lidded pots, jelly bean jars, from Mesquite.
This was my first attempt as an entry to the Hogle Zoo’s annual (2008) Â “World of the Wild” art show. This was awarded the “Employees Choice” award. The spider is made from Osage Orange with small Rosewood points at the elbows and Rosewood claws. She’s also wearing bracelets (captive rings) on her front legs. The beady eyes and tongue are Redheart. She’s about 10″ tall.
