Big Full Shell was cut from a 2x4 and finished with shellac.

Cedar Box made from aromatic cedar. The dimensions are 3 inches wide x 7 inches long x 1 ½ inches deep. The box was finished with shellac.

My SIL ordered these boxes for her coworkers. The dimensions are 4 inches x 7 inches x 1 ½ inches deep and has been flocked in a wine flocking and finished with lacquer.

The shell is really nice the grain really pops. The boxes look great also. What will they be used for?

The SIL boxes I suspect will be used for general purpose. The Ying - Yang symbol is the symbol of their State Social Worker division. She plans to give them to her co-workers.

Dw On your Shell what angle did you cut wedges How many weges Sure looks great i have got mine to turn like what u have done

DWSudekum · 05-19-2012, 01:12 AM

To tell you the truth Paul I do not know what the angle is that I cut this one. I took a 2x4 and drew a line on the end from the upper left corner to the lower right corner and cut that on my bandsaw. I believe it was 26 wedges that I cut.

As always, excellent work, DW! It was nice to have met you at the Cleveland scrollers picnic!

DW,
Great to meet you at NEOS... wish we could have spent more time.

As far as the angle, when the shell comes around like that without making a real large opening, that corresponds to lower wedge angles... see Steve Garrison's drawing that shows the shapes for various wedge angles. I'm only guessing, but I'm thinking about 18-20 degrees on that one.
What did the shell's overall size turn out to be?

Spence,

The over all size of the shell was almost 6 inches the ring it is sitting on is about 3 1/2 inches in diameter. It was great meeting you as well at the picnic as well.
