My first atempt at a feather blank.I made a lot of mistakes and this one is 4 sided to make it simple for me just to see if I had the idea.Comments welcome and appreciated.Don't laugh guys.

I don't think anyone will laugh at someone trying something new.   Your's looks a lot more like a feather blank than my first attempt    and if your experience was anything like mine I'm sure you learnt a lot.  Well done.

What materials did you use?

[rdunn12]

The blank was a pretty plain piece of Box Elder,some aluminum,maple and walnut veneers.

Certainly nothing wrong with that!! Very nice clean and crisp lines. I like it too.

I assure you it looks better than Eagle's first attempt!  (And I'm afraid to even try something like that.)

No laughing from be just admiration.

OK.. all these people talking about not laughing..
.. it's making me laugh. 

Seriously, nice work. I haven't felt confident enough to try it yet, either.
I got as far as getting some stock, looking at it and thinking about it.

.. and laughing
