I think this is the first time I painted anything that I've turned.

I have been wanting to make one of these for a while and finally sat down and figured it out.

He is 5 3/8" tall and 1 3/4" wide and my wife likes it!
So, I've got that going for me.

This is the fifth addition to my annual Christmas Ornament Videos.
You can view it on my website. Left click on my name above, and go to my website. Click videos, and you will see the nutcracker. Click him for the video.

We will see if my Web Host can deal with it this year...

I hope you like it.
Merry Christmas!

Larry

Larry, that is really nice. Brings back fond memories of watching my daughter, when little being in the local nutcracker production each year. Even though she gave up ballet when she got to the teens she still went every year to see it no matter where she lived. I may have to attempt one of those to give her. Thanks for posting.

PS I have watched your videos many times over the years. Thanks for them also.

Thanks Paul,
My daughter performed in the Golden State Ballet Nutcracker for several years. I made some of their stage props. I really miss being a part of that. It helped usher in the Christmas season.
