Meeting with the Pretoria woodturners

Today was the monthly meeting for the Pretoria woodturners. I was asked to demo some texturing techniques so I included the "homework" (wall plaques) into the demo. The result being 2 plaques mainly using the Dremel, the Ryobi carver and the Dremel engraver. See the pics below:

This one is not complete but served the purpose for the demo

 
This included using inlaid copper wire. My wife said it reminded her of a car tyre. The grooves were done with an Arbortech wheel

The final pic is of an older piece which also had lots of carving and texturing
