Sleigh and Reindeer Display
|
I used this picture as initial
inspiration for my design
Cutting out both sides of the sleigh.
I tried a rotozip, but the good ole
jigsaw worked much better.
Beginnings of the base and
runners for the sleigh.
One thing I wished I would have done before putting on the 1/8" fiber
board would been a top board to nail / screw the top edge of the board
to. The board pulled loose as I was curving it right away. Since the
inside of the board was wet from a fresh primer coat, I instead added an
aluminum angle to keep it in place. I did add a bottom piece to attach
as shown.
No reindeer for 2007.
Traveling for work reduced too
much time to even think about
getting to the reindeer.
Here is the family to give you a
better idea on the sleigh's size.
