lannon, I use a power jig saw and files. No milling.
Kevin, olive wood is pretty dense and very oily. It often has cracks, but if you use a piece that hasn't any, it is pretty solid. However I always use a core from a different material in oder to make it 100% safe.
Abu, no, I haven't shot it yet. Finished it during the week, but it is dark outside when I come back from work. Will shoot it tomorrow.
that looks really good! i like the core.

ReplyDeleteOh my gosh, that looks awesome!
ReplyDeletebeautiful work, how do you mill out your aluminum core, do you send it out and have it milled, or do you use a file and manual labor at home.
