CARVED WOOD WALL ART

I used an angle grinder to make a piece of wood look like fabric. It's easier than you think, I promise!

SUPPLIES NEEDED

CUT PIECES TO SIZE

Cut the 1X8 into 6 equal pieces

GLUE AND CLAMP ENTIRE BLOCK TOGETHER

With the glue still wet, clamp the ever-loving crap out of the wood block so that it will dry as one solid piece.

SKETCH YOUR PATTERN AND START CARVING

START SLOWLY

Once you get the feel of the tool, get more aggressive with your carving.

SAND AND SAND AGAIN

I highly recommend getting a 40-grit sanding disc to attach to the angle grinder as well.
