It’s going so much better this time! I made a stencil out of hardboard using a jigsaw and scroll saw. Then I routered it into oak. Now I’m using a chisel to carve out the pieces my router couldn’t reach, and to make rounded parts pointy. I have completed this bottom corner. Carving is my favorite thing about woodworking. I like to listen to podcasts and just be in my own little zone.
Looks really cool so far.
