Red Oak Moebius

About 24 inches

I usually don't carve Oak because it is a bit stringy and has a predilection to check but it is soooo beautiful......The wave in the middle does allow some wood movement to minimize checks (not unlike putting a loop in copper tubing to prevent it from cracking) as well as of course  design  considerations. To see another piece  that carries the Wave theme further (as well as showing pine's particular phenomena), click  here.
