Bet Your Dentist Isn't This Cool

Snowman Dentist

I carved this snowman for my longtime dentist and his wife.  I knew thew would get a kick out of it as they are also avid crafters and artists. 

The snow man is made in three pieces.  The body was carved from aspen.  The glove and tooth and glove and toothbrush were carved from basswood.  If I do something like this again I will paint it before I glue it together.  The painting turned out to be more of a challenge than carving.  Also a tip the nose and eyes for the snow man were carved from a bamboo chopstick.  I like to use bamboo for those as it is stronger for these small pieces than regular carving wood.

Go carve something.

Cool Snowman Ornament

This little guy was carved from a piece of 1x3x6 basswood.

Stylish top hat and sport coat.

What all the best dressed snowmen will be wearing this winter.  And as hot as it has been here in Dallas winter is sounding pretty good right now.

Go Make Some Wood Chips.

Cool Deputy Snowman

Here is one of my latest carvings and designs.  This little guy is a Texas Snowman complete with his deputy badge.

Sheriff Santa is still on the bench but should arrive in the next week or so.

He is basswood (Linden) and about 6 inches tall.
Go make some wood chips.
