Default Turkeys
This is one of those projects that got started, then set aside for a cold day. Well the cold finally got here and it only took me a total of 7 months to finish this one!

Just another attempt to "dress-up" an old gun.

Thanks for looking and please tell me what you think...

Steve

Thanks again! I mentioned above that this was a fun project... "Challenging" is another word that comes to mind thanks to the Birch wood!! It was almost too soft for any fine detail... I think I'll go back to walnut on the next one!! lol
