rjR Posted October 8, 2016 Report Share Posted October 8, 2016 Eyes do add; but you could have wood-burned them in and I (at least) would like them better that way! Many people will like them better this way though. They are very neat and well cut, I do like them smitty0312 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fab4 Posted October 8, 2016 Report Share Posted October 8, 2016 Hi Dan: You asked, so I'm sayin' When my thyroid acted up a few years ago my eyes bulged out of my head big time In time everything went back to normal Your reindeers seem to have a thyroid problem To me, the eyes are too big I kinda like the plain looking one - so no eyes for me If you stick with the eyes, give them a mouth too Still friends Dan???

DWSUDEKUM Posted October 8, 2016 Report Share Posted October 8, 2016 Very nicely done. The eyes help a lot. Perhaps the next size smaller? Thanks for sharing this with us. DW Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
merlin Posted October 8, 2016 Report Share Posted October 8, 2016 eyes are great.......may-be a size smaller..................... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucky2 Posted October 9, 2016 Report Share Posted October 9, 2016 Dan, the cutting looks great, but, I think the one with the eyes looks odd, The eyes are to large, and they look to be out of place. Personally, I think if you just cut the eyes out with the scroll saw, everything would look normal. Len Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Monk Posted October 9, 2016 Report Share Posted October 9, 2016 I really like the ornament. Nice job. I am not fond of the eyes. dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GPscroller Posted October 9, 2016 Report Share Posted October 9, 2016 (edited) Love the ornament, agree with what has been said above. Burn, drill or cut the eyes smaller. Jeff Edited October 9, 2016 by GPscroller Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scrappile Posted October 9, 2016 Report Share Posted October 9, 2016 Don't really care for that big of eyes, either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meflick Posted October 9, 2016 Report Share Posted October 9, 2016 Put me in the camp that while eyes may enhance the project, these appear to be too big. Plus, like others I think eyes you create by another means would be better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Debi Shipman Posted October 9, 2016 Report Share Posted October 9, 2016 Googly eyes are scary.. on anything. lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rdatelle Posted October 9, 2016 Report Share Posted October 9, 2016 Like everyone said, eyes are to big. I would probably drill the eyes but don,t go all the way through. Trail and error. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dgman Posted October 9, 2016 Report Share Posted October 9, 2016 Love the ornament Dan, but not the eyes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JTTHECLOCKMAN Posted October 9, 2016 Report Share Posted October 9, 2016 I too would have drilled the eyes. I do a couple different sized deer clocks and just drill eyes. Nice cutting though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phantom Scroller Posted October 9, 2016 Report Share Posted October 9, 2016 Like the design and as said before smaller eyes. I think you can buy animal eyes now as well if you wanted to go one better. Roly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newfie Posted October 9, 2016 Report Share Posted October 9, 2016 Nice ornament but i defiantly don't like the eyes on them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

penquin Posted October 9, 2016 Report Share Posted October 9, 2016 Looks good, not sure it needs the eyes. It is up to you which way you feel you want to go. jim penquin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frank Pellow Posted October 9, 2016 Report Share Posted October 9, 2016 I'm yet another person who would prefer the ornament with eyes -but with much smaller eyes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rockytime Posted October 9, 2016 Report Share Posted October 9, 2016 Got to go along with the eyes too big but the pattern and cutting are really nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wombatie Posted October 10, 2016 Report Share Posted October 10, 2016 I kinda like the eyes but they are too big. If you could find some smaller ones that would be better, if not do away with the eyes. Marg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
