A tree for Frida

I made this tree for my daugther Frida. The original shape of the walnut plank was kept for the frame, which adds to the 'living' look.

Porsche logo

My friend Lars got a new Porsche 718 Spyder for his fiftieth birthday – I made him a complimentary logo using walnut wood and resin.

Map of Ulebergshamn

This was a gift for my friends Hélen and Arne. It is a map of Ulebergshamn where they have a very nice summer house. It is a long tradition to celebrate Midsummer’s Day there with many close friends.

Five stars

Here is a five star sign made out of walnut, gold leaf and clear resin. It is for my friend Johan, who always appreciate nice hotels.

K-sign

Me and my old friends are all turning 50 this year, and went on a trip together with our families to the Koster islands on the west coast of Sweden. We had a lovely stay at Pensionat Ekenäs. We call ourselves the ‘Kollektiv’ so I made a little ‘K’-sign for everyone to remember the trip.

Julia set fractal inlay

This is my first attempt on a fractal resin inlay in wood. It is made with two different colours and also some clear resin, so there are quite many steps involved. The fractal bitmaps are made with Ultra Fractal, and converted to G-code with my own programs. The wood is walnut of size 300x300mm. This was a gift for my father on his birthday.
