My Snowmen

[Lee Koepke]

After seeing Bernie's snowmen, and my LOML's love of snowmen ... I had to give one a spin. The larger one was from a branch of some white pine I had (which apparently wasnt as dry as I thought .... ) the other is maple.

My wife did the painting for me.

Good looking snowmen Lee. People love those things. Be careful because if they see them it can get out of hand. Just ask me.

[Lee Koepke]

Thanks!

The larger one cracked :mad: ... I thought the wood was dry when I turned it but oh well, she still likes it.

I 'presold' 5 already for the girls at work, I am gonna turn some more for a Craft Show we are setting up for first week of November.

The tall one is about 6" tall x 2.5" , the small one is 3" or so.

Lucky for me the large one cracked on the back side so you dont see it. When I am sure its done moving, I may fill it.

Looks good! Will make some nice gifts.

[Darci Sowers]

those are really cute.

As an avid snowman collector, I think I might have to "borrow" your design. :D

Careful, Lee! I hear when the lights are out, these things have a way of multiplying and taking over your lathe!:D
