Futterbly

My daughter is getting married a week saturday, and the theme is butterflies, she likes them , so I made this as an extra suprise for her, its about 18" square...

That's lovely. If I show it to my wife, maybe she'll allow me more time in the garage! :-) Sadly, I'm not talented enough to produce something like that in a long time! :-(

Hi Duncan ta for the comment, lf I can put my mind to make this I bet you can too, go on have a go :-)

What method did you use to cut the hole shapes in the wings ?

 

[ChrisJ]

A hole saw for the big end, then a small drill at the narrow end, then a 1mm cutting disk, and a selection of hand files...
