Cats

[Chippygeoff]

A fellow member very kindly sent me a picture of some cat like sculptors and my son turned them into patterns using photoshop. The are made in American red oak and the sitting cat measures 10 inches tall. I am very pleased with the way they turned out.

The cats look really good and stylish. What finish did you use, and are they varnished ?

Cheers

Very nice Geoff, I particularly like the LH cat design, and the finish on both.

Many thanks Guys for your kind comments. I dipped the cats and the bases in teak oil and left overnight. I then used Liberon black bison wax polish buffed up on the pillar drill. To hold the cats in place I screwed up from the underside of the bases into the cats and they are now solid.

Love these cats Geoff, don't forget I will be down in Wales soon, and am coming to steal all your patterns :wink:
