Latest Project: Merry-go-Round

Made on a Glowforge
1


This is my merry-go-round I just finished. All made on a glow forge pro. It has over 1200 separate pieces made with 96 separate cuts. It has 16 meticulously hand painted horses. Project took 5 months. Also has a removable top to allow someone to look at the gear system. In process of donating this to the Colorado Springs Colorado Children’s hospital. Really had fun working on this.
Have a great day!

When people “disappear” from the forum, some of us wonder if they have wandered off to another interest, fallen upon hard times or just moved on. I am always happy when they pop back in, but even more jubilant when they share a project they have been creating. This is a beautiful work of art and craftsmanship that will be enjoyed by many for a very long time. You will never know how many smiles this brings to patients, families and staff of the hospital. Thank you for sharing it with us first.
