    Hello Slingshot Community friends
    Here's my latest natural frame, carved out from a veritable and proper piece of Portuguese oak (Quercus faginea)
    This time it was finished with linseed oil and some layers of shellac. Being a very dry and matured piece of oak, it took this finish very well.
    This one will be sent also as part of a trade, from which the recipient has no knowledge yet! :D Hope he likes it!!
    Thanks for watching!!

      Q, no termino de asombrarme con el gran trabajo de tallado que haces. Una pieza hermosa y felicidades a su dueño final, quien quiera que sea.

      Q, I am amazed at the great carving work you do. A beautiful piece. Congratulations to its final owner, whoever he is.
