Popular Post Denny Knappen Posted May 14, 2019 Popular Post Report Share Posted May 14, 2019 I finished this on Monday, May 13th, actually took several Mondays. The pattern is by Jacob Fowler and found in "Woodworker's Pattern Book". I used 1/2" Mahogany 8" x 12" with 3/4" Red Oak for the base. The base has a slot to hold the upright. I used FD UR #1 and #5 blades. The finish is three coats of spray Polyurethane Clear Satin. Comments welcome. ben2008, RabidAlien, FrankEV and 16 others 19 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim McDonald Posted May 14, 2019 Report Share Posted May 14, 2019 Lots (and lots) of fine work on the body of that creature. But--we have all come to expect that from you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Years ago we saw Bison up close and personal at Custer State Park in South Dakota. Of course we stayed in the car! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

koehler788 Posted May 21, 2019 Report Share Posted May 21, 2019 That is cool, It would also look good as a stand alone (on a base of course) without the ring boarder. Just my thought. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
