Popular Post flarud Posted August 21, 2023 Popular Post Report Share Posted August 21, 2023 (edited) I was on vacation last week and still have a couple of days left before heading back to work. Decided to make some more jack-o-lanterns. I made some 3 sides, rather large ones several years ago, but I kept finding myself watching Travis' video tutorial on his versions and decided to make some smaller ones. I just made one today to see how everything went and will make more over the next day or so. I used some old Cedar fence boards that I kept after a hurricane knocked down my fence a few years ago... Oh, side story.... I needed to change the blades on my planer before sending anymore boards thru it. So yesterday I took it all apart and reversed the blades and cleaned/lubed everything up.. looks and operates like brand new! Back to Jack... I had some orange paint that I thinned out a little so that the grain and torch marks would show. I just need to order me some LED's to finish it. I made another one of these jack-o-lanterns and received some lights that I ordered. In a couple of the pics I have just some regular tea lights in the bottoms. Another pic I have the LED light strand that I ordered,, I like both lights but the LED's can flash a variety of ways.
