Default A few Celtic Knots

To keep my fingers nimble for the difficult stuff to come on the model ship, the rigging, I've been tinkering with a few variations of the Celtic Knots. Good for the brain too. They are all in Butternut, just a coat of Danish oil on them so far, and they are great fun to do. Simple really, but very satisfying.

Interesting variety of knots. You could sell those as Christmas ornaments.

Great work Bob. How big are they and what did you use to make them?

Very nice little carvings Bob. Did you design them yourself? And if you don't mind another question...are they carved on both sides or just one?

Well Dave, That is debatable that you are not beyond help!Talking If you think you aren't then you are past helping!
