Caving

The main body was carved out using the Industrial Carver from Arbortech mounted to my 4″ grinder. I was lucky enough to win a Arbortech contour sander which has been invaluable to get the finished shape on this piece.
The entire piece is made from Red Box Burl (sourced from Mudgee in Sydney Australia) and is made in two pieces where the base is screwed to the body (very hard time trying to achieve this).
The resin has been highlighted with a Red Metallic Inlace and sanded back to 3000 grit. Overall sanding of the main body and base was sanded from 80 grit to 600 grit.
4 coats of Danish Oil and buffed with EEE cutting compound. The candle holder is a polished aluminium orb and can be removed from the base by simply lifting from the base. Hope some one out there can enjoy this.
