I just realized that I had never posted this piece, the original “Current Global Issues”. I figured that since one of the optional titles for another piece i posted today is “Current Global Issues II”, I should post this as well. The figure is made from scrap mahogany, the backdrop is Buckeye, the base is Black Walnut and the globe is out of Basswood. The globe is a loose, nested ball in a cage. the whole piece stands about 10” tall

Nice work. Nice to see—in your “other” pics that someone besides me still uses a shave horse. Your work is very nice.
