That's exactly how most of the poorer examples are done (really over done). Not to say a draw knife can't be used to achieve good results (it's the craftsman, not the tool), but how Timber Runner did it is spot on. It doesn't look contrived or over-worked.


Thanks Brad, but you are giving me too much credit. I just wire wheeled it until my drill started slowing down. I did burn up an old corded drill early on. And an old belt sander working out the cupping. But it was a fun project.
