Construction Process

I began with a fairly large block of wood. Then I cut the outside curved shape that I wanted. After that I took a small layer of wood of each section and increased the amount as I went to the bottom. While receive lots of criticisms at first, asking if this was my final piece, I wasn't positive, it was the correct move to make, but I stuck with it because I knew I could create what I was imagining. 
Once I started sanding and rounding the edges, I decided that I made the right choice. After 9+ hours using the sander, I managed to complete the rounded edges. 


I then created the base, which required more sanding and rounding. To attach the base to the tornado, I drilled a hole in both and glued a dowel rod inside of them. I also thought it needed another aspect, so I added the tray for the bracelet.
