Those look great! Inside curves are tough to do and you nailed that one.

Those look great! Inside curves are tough to do and you nailed that one. Thank you, This was my first attempt at this shape. It was what the rock wanted when it broke as I attempted the drop test for hidden fractures. Very nice work! I REALLY like the second one and the shape. Thank you, I liked how it turned out too. Very nice. Good luck with challenge Thank you Nice! Especially like the Wamsutter algae. Very cool shape. Thanks Spectacular work. Looks like they were done by an expert. Hope you do great in the challenge. Thank you. I am far from an expert from all the great cabs I have seen on this forum I feel more like a beginner each time I see all the great cabs. |

shinarump - Seriously, that is a fantastic group of cabs! If the second picture is the Wamsutter algae, then I'll agree with Mel. That is a heckuva great shape, execution, and material itself! ...and in my opinion, your cabs here are right up there with some of the more experienced cab makers on the forum...

Quick question, if I was to make this into a pendent what direction would you mount this cab? 1 or 2? 1  or 2  |

Hey Scott! I'd set that pendant in the #2 position. I think it visually flows better in that position...at least for me. And again...that really is a killer cab! |
