MY earlier post on making a Paper Manikin is still up but the photos disappeared! So, I've posted the process on my Blog in case any of you want to know how I do it.

Thanks, Lynn! Wish my helper was close, but she's around 2800 miles away most of the time... Claude |

Lynn, I put together your paper manikin and it's great! Turns out to be about 8.5 inches tall. Just in case someone wants a shorter or taller manikin, I resized (and rearranged) your pattern for a 5.5 inch manikin and another about 14 inches tall. My computer monitor isn't big enough to resize one for Colin's chainsaw, though I posted them in the Tools and Sharpening Gallery. Thanks again for taking the time to show us how to make one of these. Claude Last edited by Claude; 10-18-2006 at 09:39 PM. |

Lynn: Thanks so much for posting the pictures and if you don't mind I would love to try and make one up based on a Santa I have in the thought stage.I have really enjoyed playing with my paper dolls as my wife said this weekend,but you can really work out some posses that your wanting to do in a carving.This seems to have opened a whole new level in my pattern making,I actually seem to be able to get some action in a pattern.
