Sometime ago I emailed Luke Phillips about a piece of Mammoth Tusk a friend got me on his Alaska trip.
I was going to make a pen from it but Luke thought he might be able to do a little something with it.
I am glad I skipped the pen idea as the tusk had many cracks in it.
Luke did a "little" work on it. I thought he would laser it but no he scrimmed it with a very high speed tool and what he calls his needles.
Little does my friend know but thanks to Luke he is getting a true muesum quality piece of art work.
I do some laser engraving that some call art, but I think of myself as a tech type, no art ablity at all. On the other hand Luke Phillips is a true artist.
The tusk is about 4 inches long.
Thanks Luke for a GREAT job!
