Kitchen hood front

[CarverRog]

This is my last commission piece. The contractor gave me the 8/4 butternut and a pattern to follow. All I had to do was carve it they are going to stain and finish it. My setup is a little different than some carvers because I stand while carving.

Very nice work. I have carved both standing and sitting and prefer to stand when possible. I notice you use the Pfeil Abegglen tool. How do you like it?

I really like it and used it to clean up in the tight areas between the leaves.

That is beautiful. You are very talented. Thank you for sharing with us. Paul

Beautiful work!

I only wish I could stand while carving. Too many football injuries to the knees to make that possible.

I remember in College the team Dr. told me " Well kid after that last injury you have two choices, you can continue to play, or you can walk when your forty, but it won't be both!"

Roger,

I have been an admirer of your carving since I first saw you chip carved masterpieces.
Now I am not sure what I admire more: your carving or your gouge tray assembly.
You are way too organized and disciplined man! ;-)

What a beautiful piece of art! You titled the thread "kitchen hood front", just wondering how it will be displayed?

I didn't word that quite right did I. It will be the front apron to one of those large oven hoods with the curved tops. I hope that helps.

Nice work and the tool stand if nice too, I would like to make something like that, but hinge and fold side over and have the top tray moveable drawer to go above bottom tray when folding. I am tired of digging out three different tool rolls to get tools then put them away to go into box. Just and idea.
