My little boot

[bigEd_H]

Here's a little old worn out boot I carved for a shoe repairman I know. I cut the blank out of bass wood on my scrollsaw and just started carving. It took me about an hour off and on. I stained it with red oak stain and used a sharpie for the sole and heel edging.

I set it on my notebook to take the pics.

very nice keep up the great work can you do cowboy boots.

Thanks. As a matter of fact, I was thinking about trying a cowboy boot real soon. I bought a 20lb box of bass wood from Rockler and most of it is rough, but the thickness is right for cutting out blanks for carving. I've done this boot and I'm working on a cat right now. I'm thinking of cutting out a dog as well.

That's a lovely old boot! Bet the cobbler will be well chuffed!
