Sandblasted Redwood Panel Wins

$750 PRIZE

A panel of sandblasted Redwood in natural color, with a black border, a picture of which is herewith reproduced, rvon a $750 piano, first prize in a competition put on by the J. Raymond Smith Co. of San Francisco. Competitors were required to rearrange a group of jumbled letters, the prizes to be given to the most artistic and original entries submitted, and it is a great tribute to the artistic possibilities of sandblasted Redwood that the judges awarded the first prize to the Redrvood entry, out of the many hundreds of entries submitted,

Roy M. Evans, Petaluma Granite & Marble Works, Petaluma, was the prize winner and the man who did the work. He used a piece of 1x8 straight grain Redwood 30 inches long.

It is interesting to note that results similar to hand carving can be obtained by machine methods, and many other effects not even possible by hand tooling, such as driftwood effects.

Among many other uses, sandblasted designs are being used on candy boxes and other commercial fancy boxes, commercial signs, ornamental plaques and panels for interior decoration, and it is safe to predict a great future for this work, orving to the infinite variety of designs which are possible and the speed and ease with which they can be produced.
