Popular Post Ron Altier 7,997 Posted March 9, 2017 Popular Post Report Share Posted March 9, 2017 My daughter requested me to make a cartoon like owl for a very close friend who loves owls so much she even has an owl tattoo. I can't carve due to a condition in my hands, so I had to use my woodworking machines. I started with a pine block, cut the basic shape on the band saw and turned it down on the lathe. Then shaped with my spindle sander. I used a picture of a real owl for inspiration. She wanted it cartoon like, so I put spectacles and a hat on him. Hope she likes it. LarryS, Chips N Dust, Fred W.

Smallpatch 9,075 Posted March 9, 2017 Report Share Posted March 9, 2017 That would look good hanging from the review mirror. Or as a hood ornament. Grandpadave52 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
