I run them across the router rather slowly to achieve my desired shape. The friction of the blade creates alot of heat and slightly burns the wood; however, if I push it through too fast it tends to splinter the wood. I could sand the burn marks off all the way, but I feel it ads charm to them 🙂

And yes, I do make the voodama dolls :wink:

You will be very pleased. The walnut wood is beautiful (smells nice too :D)-and the slim profile will feel great in your pocket.
