Each Project Includes: Full size pattern • Color photo and general step-by-stcp instructions to guide you in cutting, fitting, contouring, and finishing your wildlife masterpiece. Make the eyes To make the eyes, first drill 1/4"-Dia. holes through the pieces of Osage orange and glue walnut dowels in place. While the glue dries, follow Fig. 2 to complete the eyes. When tracing the shape of the inner eyes, be sure both pupils are positioned exactly the same. If the eyes are looking in two different directions, your cougar will appear very strange. When you finish the eyes, cut out and fit each eye to the face of the cougar. When contouring, make the eyes slightly convex (see Drawing No. 1). Cut the small pieces Small pieces, such as those near the inside corners of the eyes, are easier to deal with if they are edge glued in place before cutting them out (see Fig. 3). Place a sheet of wax paper on a flat surface when gluing the pieces. After the glue dries, the pieces won't be stuck to the table surface. Once glued, the pieces can be cut and fitted as easily as one large piece. Muzzle, mouth, and teeth In making the muzzle and mouth, first fit all the pieces together, including the tongue (see Fig. 4). Using masking tape to hold the rest of the parts together, remove the tongue. Position the taped pieces of the mouth over the wood where the teeth were traced on, and draw a new cut line. Cut and fit the teeth to the mouth. Drawing No. 2 shows a side view of the various shims, Fig. 1. Trace a new, accurate cut line using the sand ed edge of the adjoining piece as a template. Trace the outer sections of the eye onto the piece of walnut. Position the outer eye sections over the inner (Osage orange) eye section and trace the lines. Cut arid fit the inner eye section. Cut out the center and glue the two halves together. Fig. 2. Making the eye sections. 'GORILLA WITH BAB?' 174 Pieces 32" * 32" #M-01-$14.00 "BULL MOOSE" 60 Piece: 32" x 27" #M-16-$9.50 by Robert J.
