These Are Photos of My Latest Shells.
11/14/2009 - I have just added my new ebook, "Wood Shells - A New
Art Form" to my sale page. This ebook gives detailed instructions on how to make very unique wood shells like the
ones I have made. They are made using a scrollsaw and/or bandsaw along with a few miscellaneous tools for shaping, sanding,
etc... I don't think that anyone who has seen the construction process would say that it is difficult, but it does
take some patience. Lots of people have asked for this so here it is! This is not just the most basic technique, it
covers the modifications I have made to it over the years to include the advanced techniques used for the shells shown on
this page.
Here is a comment I got in my guest book
from a recent customer about my new ebook on making shells:

The shell pictured above is the result of a new experimental construction technique. The wood is Eastern Red Cedar
and I wasn't really expecting it to turn out looking this nice.
