October 29, 2025Oct 29 Christmas is coming soon!! I made this with a spokeshave. I originally made a much longer one to set up on the fireplace mantle but can be put anywhere. And any size with any arrangement. Be creative! Cheers! MrRick
October 30, 2025Oct 30 Very cool Rick. Do you apply any finish to these? Store them in a box or plastic container between seasons?
October 30, 2025Oct 30 Author Thanks @Grandpadave52 There's no finish at all on them! I store them in a separate cardboard box. If they get broken no big deal. They're made of scrap normally destined for recycling. I just crank out more. Edited October 30, 2025Oct 30 by MrRick

October 30, 2025Oct 30 Author Good on ya Gunny! Why wait? The longer you put off something you want to do, the more time there is for something preventing you from doing it. Never do for tomorrow what you can do today.

October 31, 2025Oct 31 Author Thanks aaronc ! I've made a number of them for Christmas. Always well received.
