Another Oil Bottle Design
« on: June 04, 2010, 11:33:30 PM »
I have made a couple of octagonal oil bottles (and am making another right now).  However, while making some of the square ones up, I thought I would make one that looked like a little brass pistol barrel.  This one isn't done yet, but I like the way it's turning out.

 That is VERY impressive! :o  How long does it take to make a   barrel-shaped  one?

Beautiful work as always Dave.  I especially like the engraving!  Are you using a gravermax or something similar or are you doing it the old fashioned way with a chaser?  Just fantastic art.

Well Done.
