Default Ironing Board Leg Carved

Im always buying old junk like one old wooden ironing board I bought.The board was burn'd bad but I wanted the old pine leggs on it to carve quick little carvings on.

This old man is smiling and a quick carving this morning. If I can get several done from the old ironing board legs,lay one on a table with the carvings and they will sell. Old time Santas would work also on the board legs.

Hes 1 inch wide and 3 1/2 inches long.

Hope you like him or we can iron something out if not! LOL

Forrest
