St. Michael the Archangel


  • The base is made out of a piece of mahogany and a piece of oak. Both pieces were sanded and the edges were routed over with a 1/8th round over bit.
  • The scrolled figure was done in Eastern White Pine with a Puritan Pine MinWax stain.
  • It stands approximately 10 inches wide and 8 inches tall.

This piece I made for my nephew as a Confirmation gift. His patron saint is Saint Michael. I didn’t like any of the wing configurations that I found so I actually used a set of dragon wings that I liked. The effect added a little bit more visceral appeal to the piece.
