Hawks and owls revisited ...

[PuzzledMoose]

OK a few cuttings from the end of last week ... still need bases but they were easier to photograph flat ...

All half inch wood - the horned owl is English elm, the others the usual oak ..:-)

Cut with FD -SR #1s and 3s

Thanks, Gill. The owls are a present to me ..lol I've always liked owls and got quite a few lurking round the house from my travels..

I'm hoping to sell some stuff a little later in the year though .. well to try at least ..

Very nice work

Well scrolled Ian, you should'nt have any problem with sales not with the calibre of your work.

b.t.w Can you send our English Elm home please, i promise to look after it.

Gee, that middle one looks familiar. Sure it isn't an owl? Very nice work. Among the other items I'm getting ready for my shows, I'm also doing a Bald Eagle. Should be nice when I get it done.

LOL - did you get the message I sent you?

Hey - a question about that bald eagle. I've got that pattern too - assuming it's the Fowler's magazine one .. did you find any wood where the head was lighter than the rest? (If that makes sense?) I've been looking around but the only thing I've come across is red W cedar and I'm not sure it will hold up to those fine cuts ..

Very nice Ian.

Looks like a good day or two in the shop there, PuzzledMoose. Nice work.

When you attach those to the base, will you be using screws or just glue?

Thanks for the comments. Probably both, Unix. Was going to do it this evening - until I found I don't have any suitable screws. All the ones I have are either too short, too long or too thick. I think there is some shop law that says "However many types of screw you have you will still not have the one you need for a specific job!"

Great stuff! I wish I had the time to cut cut cut!!! Or, are you a super fast cutter, like 20 min a project? They look great! Dale
