Tried cutting the host rock off of these Tee Pee's with not much success- they fracture fairly easily.
This time I just dremeled it down until I was satisfied, still learning and practicing before I get going on the one's I really like.
The first picture is the piece that I started with, it was wedge-shaped and I kind of had to do it backwards by grinding a ton off of the back.
Thanks for looking!

Thank you, they seem to take a pretty good polish in the rotary tumbler- we'll see how it turns out.

That's looking really nice, Mike! You are certainly becoming a Dremel Master! (yahoo)

Robin

"Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience."
~ C.S. Lewis

It's a long way down the rabbit hole, Alice. ~ Ren

Thank you, ma'am! I don't know about the dremel master part, but that's what I have to work with for now so that's what I do.
I think this one took me about an hour to shape.
I always considered myself a patient person but this hobby is taking it to a whole new level!

rocknrob: That was one heck of a windstorm that thankfully missed me. I guess Seatac almost hit 60mph gusts. I bet those were some fun landings Nov 20, 2024 21:55:16 GMT -5
