Maple Ambrosia Trefoil Knot, Figure 3

The original wood block was 2.5 x8 x8 , and the final piece is about 7.5 in diameter and 2 thick. The trefoil knot is formed by the raised edge which goes through the three holes, so this trafoil knot is embedded in a genus 3 surface. The curve, if seen from above follows the pattern usually used to draw a trefoil knot on paper, with alternating over and under crossings. It therefore shows the 3-fold symmetry of the trefoil better than if it had been carved as a (3,2) torus knot.https://orb.binghamton.edu/mathematical_sculptures/1638/thumbnail.jp
