RATTLESNAKE

[Bishop]

And now for something completely different.

The main body is made from Western Red Cedar, the tail is Cottonwood and the underbelly is Basswood.

We started by cutting the main pieces from 1 1/2" WRC.

All the pieces were shaped and then checked for fit.

The underbelly was glued in place and shaped.

The pieces were wood burnt and painted.

We glued together all the pieces and when it gets warmer we will clear coat it.

Thanks for looking

God Bless
