I haven’t been able to get into the shop for a bit now but today, I had a few minutes to make something for a little one:
This one is mulberry wood on a cherry base with maple wheels – an old button to pull it with.
Happy making,
Jim

It has been to hot to go to the lake to get in any birdwatching. Whirligigs make me happy. So, there you have it – it had to be a new whirligig for the yard. Seriously, I love things that move and spin and whirl. This weeks shop fun was a little robin whirligig:
He is cedar painted with latex house paint and held up on a brass spindle.
Happy Making,
Jim
