Today In The Toymakers Shop - Handmade Flock of Wood Turkeys on the Workbench
I made the first turkeys for a preschool. The kids used the turkeys to make Thanksgiving decorations for their parents. I cut these by hand using a scroll saw. They are four-inches tall, but I can make them in any size. Custom orders are welcome. Please contact me with your needs. If you don't see what you want, ask for it. I may have just what you need.
These are very easy to make. There is only one hole to drill and no internal cuts. The only tricky part is gluing on the wings. They tend to want to move around. If I made a lot of them, I might need to make a jig to position everything, but the most I have ever made at one time is eight. Making a jig doesn't seem to be worth the effort.
The pattern is by Patrick Speilman, published in one of his many scroll saw books. I think I own them all.
