Pattern for a mouse

#1 02-12-2002, 11:45 PM

I'm looking for a pattern for a mouse to add as a part of a grandfather clock. The idea is the nursery ryhme 'hickory dickory dock, a mouse ran up the clock ...'. Â*If anyone has any ideas I'd appreciate Â*hearing.

Thanks.

Well, at the risk of sounding like a smart a_ _ you could catch a mouse in a trap and take a few pictures of it. Then scan the picture and set your printer on colorbook or outline and print it. If the pattern isn't the right size go back and resize it.(or catch a bigger mouse)

Or you can just go to www.carvingpatterns.com

I went through the e-mail address list and couldn't find yours.
I have a carving of a mouse that sits on a shelf with its' nose
hanging down over the edge. I can't find the pattern for it,
but I could trace around it & scan it for you. I also have Tom
Wolfe's book on Santimals, but the critter in that looks more like a rat. Pineyknot
