Bishop Posted January 6, 2014 Report Share Posted January 6, 2014 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 Homer & Carol lawson56, bobscroll and Doug 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
