| Re: Bob Bobblehead Great idea Windsong! What did you use for the spring and how did you attach it to the carving ( or is that asking to give a trade secret away?)?

| Re: Bob Bobblehead Thank you thank you !!! Eddy i carved him then i cut off his head { that don't sound good} I removed his head.I straightened out the hook end of the spring .I then drilled a little hole in the body .Next i stuck the end into the drilled hole that way i didn't have a big hole in the body that you could have seen. I cut the spring to length.Next i drilled a hole in the head big enough to put the spring into. I put a lead sinker up in the head before i glued in the spring the lead is to make his head shack more.{ DO NOT TELL MY SON I WAS IN HIS FISHING BOX!!!}The spring was from a rebuild kit that fits a Gearheart Govenor for a White Superior engine.You know you can't throw away any thing like a spring you may need it to make a bobble head out of Ha ha . windsong |
