Nice projects Lynn. I'm now getting caught up and I want to make me one of those bottle cutters. I have got to give it a try. Thanks so much.....Myron

Corey. Thanks. I'm trying to come up with new ways to do things. At the moment I'm working on a way to get a horse on the cork!!!

Good ones....the cowboy strikes me as a "trooper" for some reason? probably the bend of the hat? Do you put cork on the stoppers?

Yes. Bought some predrilled for the 3/8" dowel. I just allow for a long post on the neck and then whittle it down to fit the cork.

Lynn, It might take a whole truckload of carrots, apples and sugar cubes, but I bet ole Boomer will be hopping up on that cork with all four feet in no time. Just couldn't resist. I do thank you for all your doing here. Your teaching is helping more folks than you will ever know.

Believe it or not but Boomer will not eat carrots, apples or sugar cubes. My wife's horse gobbles them right up but old Boomer just turns his head.

I looked on your Blog but did not find the latest two bottle stoppers.

How big are the boots as I was wondering if I could change the base of the NA I am working on to make it in to a bottle stopper.
I would like to try the boots as they look great.Thank you.

They're about 4" tall. You could use the same pattern that I used for my Blog Boot project.
