Valentine day teddy bear

[Allen levine]

Not bragging about this simple pattern just showing it nearly finished

steve good download took me a bit over an hour to mill down hard maple to 1/4 inch and cut pattern out

im getting a little better at selecting blades used a 2 blade and had no problems even on some tight turns 

I'll stack cut 2 more tomorrow or this week when it's warm enough to get out there

I will spray lacquer from rattle can after red paint cures by tomorrow

Simple and quick and I'm having fun

Yep, cute!  You might consider rounding the edges of the various layers to give it a more sculptured look.

I'm afraid if I sanded it down smooth my daughter will ask me to make 15 of them

i started cutting his teddy bear box that includes a bit of intarsia also

It's a switch from building furniture as my back doesn't like me anymore and when I start lifting sheets of plywood or 12/4 boards my back yells at me

and these projects are like wood turning can finish something in one day
