Just thought maybe you folks would like to see my frames now that I have improved my skills a little bit. Let me know what you think !!! I know we are a pen turning forum, BUT everybody needs a break for the norm now and then and I think this is a cool break !!! The split head has 3 fangs !!! and the whole head has 4 fangs !!!!!!!!!!
Thanks

Joe:biggrin:

More than likely my ex wife ! or better yet that damn dog next door that won't shut up at night!

Seriously I think a picture of my son with his first Elk.

Thanks

The heads pictured are not glued on yet, they can be located anywhere the buyer wants, and I do have the rattles also, I just took pictures of the ones with some heads as I like them better, the frame pictured is for an 8x10 photo so the frame is actually 12" wide and 14" long and the split head is about 3" long, I have a Patent on them, now I just need to find a market for them, wish me luck folks!
Thanks
Joe
 
Joe I would think there is a market for those keep looking!

I love the way you wrapped the skin around the inside of the frame and your corners seams look clean

nice job in particular I like the bottom left corner seam the one without the overlap of the 2 patterns coming together

Do you apply a finish on those skins since they are not sealed in resin?
 
Thank you sir ! I try ! They are sealed with a spray Matte finish so that there are no loose scales, 2 coats along with the heads.

Thanks
