Wooly must have x-ray vision. Not sure how one looks at a log and sees the bird/dog/bear in it. I see a log. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wooly Posted January 8, 2019 Author Share Posted January 8, 2019 Heading into the home stretch finishing up the eagle part of this one. Slapped on my 3'rd coat of boiled linseed oil and two coats of spar varnish so far. Got a rough tail cut out and attached before the rain started this morning and I had to pack it up.. Should be able to wrap up the bird part next time I drag the tools out and get my final coat of finish done. Then it's just a matter of dreaming up something for the base. That parts got me STUMPED for now (pun intended), but I have had a few ideas run through my head.. just not sure I can pull 'em off. Open to suggestions if anyone's got any. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chef Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 That is amazing! I would truly like to buy one of these from you one day.

TreeGuy Posted January 9, 2019 Share Posted January 9, 2019 So, I'll take my idea which was already said but two fold. Mountain on one side, American flag on the other. Sent from my LM-V405 using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
