Wooden Christmas Tree
Christmas is coming!!
Made this with a spokeshave. Originally made to set on the fireplace mantle but can be put anywhere.

It was alot of fun and something you can be quite creative with making it.
Those are cool!
Ryan/// ~sigh~ I blew up another bowl. Moke told me "I made the inside bigger than the outside".
Thanks Ryan!
Very unique trees!

Thanks Jim!
That's a great idea! I met a carver two days ago who used shavings as the petals(?) of a flower. That's a whole lot easier than carving the waste away. I'll likely see him again soon, and I'll get a picture.

A cool effect. I've seen someone who did this but first turned the piece of wood into a cone shape. They managed to create really tight curls. It was a YouTube video but I cannot seem to find it now. I think that the guy was from Germany or possibly somewhere in Scandinavia.
--Nathan, TX. Hire the lazy man. He may not do as much work but that's because he will find a better way.
Thanks Dark_Lightning. I normally shape a point on the tree and sometimes I do this technique with dowel. There's alot of artistic license you can take when creating this.
Lazyman.... there's so much you can do with this artistic endeavor. Such a simple thing can yield alot of creativity in the making. I've made a 3 ft long board once with many trees on it. Some leaning, some straight, others broken, some short and tall. In the end it was beautiful.
