You have just enough time to make a few before Christmas.

That's cute. It's convenient too since I have some basswood 1x1 pieces! I'll have to give it a try!

thanks for posting it!

Rick, Great job, thanks for thinking of us, many times we sit and ponder 'what to carve'? Now, we all can do something with those small scraps of wood around the shop.

I for one will be giving it a try.

Rick,

I have one question. If you cut your wood to 1X1X4 as the instuctions say and print the pattern at 2X6 like the picture says couldn't that cause a small problem? ???

Besides, I just did 4 'icicle santas' by hand for my Mom and siblings and NOW you give us a pattern. GRRRRR LOL
