Chipmunk

[Denny Knappen]

I actually started this last week, but when sanding the base It went flying never to be found.  The pattern is by Jacob Fowler and found in CWWC April 2010.  It is made from 1/2" Red Oak with a 3/4" Ash base.  It measure approximately 7" high and 6" wide.  I used FD New Spirals #1 for the interior cuts and FDUR #3 for the remaining cuts.  Does anyone know if Jacob Fowler is still designing patterns?  Comments welcome.

Denny, he's a cute little fellow, the oak grain and texture even makes it look more like a real chipmonk.

"How well i know how easy it is for things to get airborne while sanding.I finally had to hang a blanketnup in the sanding area to catch all that flys from my fingers.So many folk relate to baby squirrels ,Good job!

That looks super, like the oak wood you used.  Color and grain pattern really  set it off nicely.

Thanks for all the comments.  I haven't seen chipmunks here in TN, but I know they are up in the hills.  Back home in MN at the lake home, we had them all over the place.  Almost a nuisance.

Very nicely done.  Love the pairing of the wood grain with the pattern.  Thanks for sharing this with us.

Thanks DW.  The red oak does have nice grain for this project.

That little chippy is nice especially how you did the cutting in oak.
