nicole Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 Hi All, I am working on a coffee table that will have sides that are basically a "swamp scene" and a top that will be made from local hickory. The bottom shelf will be determined.. I am thinking of using wavy 1/8 x 3/4 band stock that interlocks to create a water with ripples effect..need to try it and see how it looks. Here is one panel, in need of some cleanup but it shows the idea, It contains cattails, some fiddlehead ferns and some other things that I don't know what to call LOL. The cattails were made with some pipe fullered down to make sausages what were closed up around 1/4 rod stock..the fiddleheads were 1/4 rod stock scrolled up and scored with a chisel.

nicole Posted October 3, 2014 Author Share Posted October 3, 2014 Thanks for the feedback folks I have more or less gotten it together...not sure if I like the way I handled the shelf..painted deep blue to represent water with ripples..but this is v 1.0 and I just need to sit with it a bit.
