You have a nice touch Mark. Both of the pieces are really good looking. The Scot is impressive.

Blessings,

Mel:
Its in issue #3 WCI,but you drill all 4 side 2 times one above the other with a 11/4"bit.carve away all the excess,and then carve it,you may need to carve the back holes 13/8",I don't and soak it 30 min. in alcohol before popping in the ball.

Great carving Mark, and a great gift idea. What type of wood did you use for the cage or would any wood work?
