Sorry to leave you hanging last week. 🙂 But, I could not pack it all into one video. Last week, we cut staves for a triple inside out project. That has now turned out – into a flame – one of my favorites.

With the base, the flame is about 2.5 inches by 8 inches. The base is walnut; the outer flame is maple; the inner flame is padauk. All are finished with shellac.

A triple inside out is similar to a quad or four stave. The difference in preparation is cutting the staves. A four stave is easily cut since all angles are 90 degrees. A triple requires a parallelogram with angles of 60, 120,60,120. So, last week, we cut the staves. This week we turned the flame.

This link goes to a detailed step description to successfully cutting the staves plus a diagram to explain the minimal calculations (2 of them) to get things right.

Enjoy.
