Introduction

In this project the pattern was adjusted to fit the wood by eliminating a portion of it rather than shrinking it. The horn was elevated as well to add a bit more depth to the overall appearance. The reason for this is that the piece of walnut used here was the only wood we had on hand that would work with the design and could also be cut on a 20" saw.

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Lay out the board and pattern to get a feel how best the characteristics of the wood work into the flow of the esign. This particular board was good on both sides, but we wanted to the knot to draw the to the side in to give the illusion that there was more to animal. We tried the knot on both sides and directions and settled for the face shown here.
