Time Out Turtle

This piece was commissioned by a client who was tearing down some trees in her yard.  As she watched the tree come down and be cut she noticed interesting images in the rings.  She gave me the seat portion and I made legs for it out of similar reclaimed lumber.  The joints are a simple halflap with a large shoulder on the underside of the seat.  The height is low because, as a new grandmother, she has many little ones who may need to sit in time out.
