Black walnut (left) and European beech to give good contrast on the finished piece.
Sometimes cuts are really easy. A line here, a line there… Other times, it’s ONE GIANT line! This spiral design has 8 pieces total (not many), but each piece (minus 4 easy ones) are suuuuper time consuming. Knotwork would have been much simpler – over and under = start and stop lines for each piece. Spiral-work? Ufda.
