Woodturning - Ash Form Inspired by Tutankhamun.
Having recently attended another demonstration by Mark Sanger, I wanted to try and turn some green (wet) ash, dry it colour and finish all in one day. I believe the microwave drying technique that is underused as it can save the wait whilst wood seasons and also, reduce the chance of loss due to cracking and checking, especially with timber that is highly prized yet prone to cracking such as Holly.
I've long been inspired by the numerous beautiful finds in the Tomb of King Tutankhamun, especially the death mask in that deep blue and gold, this combination of colours work very well together.
The microwave drying process allowed the project to be completed in one day despite the fact that the moisture content was more than 22% at the onset.
I could have made a better job of the texturing, I need to investigate and acquire better tools for this. I used a diamond ball engraver on my Dremel which was OK for a while then started to burn as opposed to cutting.
Full acknowledgement to Mark Sanger for the design of the form.
