My son-in-law is of Norwegian ancestry and he seem pretty proud of it. I saw this pattern and just had to do it to give to him. Hopefully one of these days he will have a "man den" to hang it it.

This was a difficult one, took me two months of off and on work to get it completed. It is done with 1/4" Baltic Birch. I wish I had done it in 1/2" oak, but, oh well, I am not going to do it again!

 
That is a total jaw dropper. I can't even imagine how you do some of those tiny, tiny details.

Excellent work. I can see why it took so long, there is lots of inches of "shore line". Whenever I did a complicated design I stack cut 2 pieces of 3/8 stock. One for sale and one to keep. Maple and Mahogany are my woods of choice.
