card holder base pattern

[big dave]

here is the pattern for the card holder, i use two inch thick red cedar but you use what you want and you can use thicker wood if you need, you can make adjustments to fit your carving, the tall one is designed for self elves or you can adjust the height and carve a wood spirit or if you use bass or butternut you can carve a bust or full figure.

Hey, thanks Dave! Appreciate this so much! I don't recall seeing any pics of these posted by you... a couple with some shelf elves on them.. I'm sure others would love to see them.. they looked great in Charlotte last year!

Carve on...
