	February 2017 - I saw this project in the Spring 2017 issue of Woodcarving 
	Illustrated and before I undertake the project which will be a 10 inch 
	plate, I chip carved this one on a 4 inch plate that I made on my Shopsmith 
	lathe. It is 3/8 inch thick and is finished with Watco Dark Walnut Danish 
	Oil. The face of this plate is actually flat but it looks 3D round when you 
	look at it. |
