Ribbed
Wood: Black Maire
Length: 170mm (6-5/8")
Finish: Danish Oil, Natural Beaut Polish
I posted a prototype to this piece some time back and thought it was about time I made a larger one. This one was the second attempt as the first was a complete failure. (designer firewood now) I think it was just luck that the prototype worked out.
I managed to keep the tips of the ribs intact by covering them in hot-melt glue.
I picked this piece of maire because it was half sap and half heart, I think it gives the piece more character.
