How to make such wooden things from scraps
Greetings.
It's time to think about decorations for the New Year. Here various scraps can come in handy, which have been accumulating for almost all masters for years.
For example, very interesting pendants can be made from such bars.
To begin with, I drew identical shapes on both sides of the bar, so that I could cut them out afterwards. Marked in the center and indented from the edge. Why the indent is needed will be clear from the further story.
Through holes in the block are needed in order to insert a jigsaw file.
And then the drawn figures are cut out along the markup.
The block prepared in this way is installed in the lathe. And already on the lathe, the form that was previously cut out is played out.
By the way, for this, we needed an indent when marking the shape. There must be enough material left for turning up to the edge of the block. Scroll through the gallery.
Almost everything is ready with small touches.
The result is a suspension like this.
The idea is shown here. The inner and outer shape can be very different.
In a similar way, you can make not only pendants, but also candlesticks, decorative elements of furniture, chess pieces, in general, everything that has enough imagination.
