Well this is the the plate that I turned for my niece. She drew me a nice pic & to say thank you I made this plate & had the pic she drew laser engraved in it for her. It's made from Maple & just 3 coats of BLO to deepen the color a tad.


Not bad for $20 for engraving


Mods, I forgot how to add pics so please adjust it if you have to.

I think this might be my favorite of all the pieces you've turned, Chuck. Without the laser work, it looks superb. The engraving is icing on the cake, and I'm betting our niece will love it. :clap:
 
Thank you very much for all the kind replies. I* wanted this piece to be perfect so I planned the whole thing out before I turned it. I'm very happy with the results. I'll let you know when she gets it. I mailed it today on my way to work & it should arrive in FL Mon or Tue.
 
Well, I got a call from my niece she loves the plate. (I'm excited about that) she's going to take it in to her Art teacher at school & show her. I told Ariana to tell her teacher it was a collaboration between a gifted natural artist & her Uncle a wood turner. :D
