I love a good play on words - but when I can combine it with woodturning, all the better! Have a Holly, Jolly Christmas!

That's funny! When I type 'burl' on my phone, it always autocorrects to Burl or 'hurl'. Hurl Ives is not as appealing for some reason!

That got a big "Awwwww" from my wife. That's a clever and well executed piece.

I keep waiting to hear him sing "Have a Jolly Jolly Christmas". Very cool. Great imagination.

Thanks everyone - it was fun to come up with an (as far as I can tell) original idea for once! :)

Steve, that is nice. My wife went crazy over it. Now she wants one.

really cool! Reminds me of school one of my teachers grew up with Burl Ives. He would come to school tell stories.

As someone who grew up watching those Burl Ives stop motion shows, I can tell you that your post made me smile! Thanks for helping me remember the fond memories of my childhood.

Just a seasonal refresh - I still get asked about selling this, but it's just for show. The old picture link broke, so I'll attach it this time...
