Enhanced Bark Edge Flower For Mother’s Day

Wood Flower

Please view this post here on this page. But, in case of technical difficulties, call a 10 year old for help or view on YouTube or FaceBook.

I have turned this style of flower before. However, I had purchased some Cold-Bend Hardwood and thought to use it to enhance my flower.

Plus I stabilized the wood with Cactus Juice to stabilize the bark to assist it to stay attached.

The wood is walnut, sassafras, bloodwood finished with shellac or mineral oil.

The bendable hardwood is still wet and too flexible at this diameter to turn on my lathe. I shaped it with a rotary rasp tool.

Enjoy.
