rjR Posted October 27, 2015 Report Share Posted October 27, 2015 Well I promised the picture of the finished article! Still wet, spray poly. If someone wants; my "sort -of a pattern" is available. It has 24 pieces of wood and about 40 screws! Might be more. Made from generic Lowe's pine/??. Even used the small turning lathe to make the handle. Eyes are seperate wood pieces too.

Gordster Posted October 28, 2015 Report Share Posted October 28, 2015 Ralph,that looks fantastic...Someone had one at the market here about a month ago.A toddler got on and it was magic..That little guy had a ball,and yes it was purchased..The father didn't have enough money on him,but the owner let him have it for what he had. I hope the child that sits on yours will be as happy as this guy. Might be the kid in me but I love it...WTG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
