Default Laminated Rainbow Trout
I laminated 2 ½ “ boards together for the carving the wood was milled 2 months ago with my chainsaw mill and stacked and stickerd, it was pretty dry at the time of glue up.

The boards I ran through a planer to clean up the surface and a hand electric planer for the edges. It was clamped with pipe clamps for the edges and timberlock screws for for the faces.

I hope to eliminate most of the checking with this method

I will be painting it next with my airbrushes.
