Well, it's been ages and ages since I did a youtube video tied to the carving designs project. But I have all along intended to get back to them. I'm still not quite ready to resume shop work yet, but getting closer all the time. But I did sneak in there, figuring I could do a video about the layout of a strapwork carving. I like to do this on paper for the camera - it shows up better than scratches from an awl or marking gauge.
I anticipate shooting several videos about strapwork - the next one will be cutting the pattern I laid out in this one. Then there's numerous variations, and one I expect about how to design a pattern rather than just copying the measurements from an existing one.
Meanwhile, I'm working on the page where these patterns are sold, with an eye toward offering the option for downloads versus buying the paper versions. I'm only marginally capable at that end of the blog so it will take me some tinkering.
Along those same lines, I have to get with it because the plans for the joined chest are nearly finished. Jeff Lefkowitz has done an amazing job. When I first approached him about this project, he had never seen one of these chests, but he quickly caught on and has out-done himself.
