I’ve been trying to get back into the shop and get a few things done. I saw a project in the last Woodcraft magazine called a “History Stick”. It’s made to mark your child’s height on it instead of on the door jamb. (so the record doesn’t disappear if you paint or move)
I thought it was a neat idea, and my little man is growing so fast, I figured it was time to make one.
I resawed a piece of curly soft maple I had and went to town. The scrolling is mediocre, and the carving could be better (much) but it was fun to try new things. Anyhow, I figure with a little practice, I may get good enough to make a few Christmas presents for family.
