I started this project on April 3, 2006 using the photograph below for reference:
The photo above shows the stack of carousel parts numbered for auction. This photo was used by my son Troy
Lawrence to produce outline drawings.
The photo above shows the outline drawing of the center panel that was produced by Troy.
The photo above shows the first pattern I used to start laying out the corner acanthus carvings.
In this photo I am holding the first carving I completed. Fourty nine to go!
In this carving I am holding several of the corner carvings that had been completed
up to this time. I would need to carve a total of twelve of these.
The photo above shows a note I made on the date I carved the last of the twelve acanthus carvings.
The date was September 18, 2006. One year later I would complete the entire project.
This is a photo of the two large acanthus carvings that will be located on each side
of the large shell carvings at the very top of the rounding boards. I will need to carve
six of these.
You have viewed the 1st page of photos in the progress of the completion of the rounding
board. There are 5 more pages to go. If you would like to see the next page click
