Still Cutting Out Little Animals After Forty Years

300 wooden elephants hand cut with a scroll from padauk hardwood.

 See My Itty Bitty Animal Collection

In the mid-1980s, I bought my first scroll saw and learned to use it by making toy animal cutouts from pallet wood. Forty years later, I still use a scroll saw to cut small animals out of wood. I am crafting elephants from Padauk wood instead of pallet wood this time. In this batch, there are over 300 elephants, which will eventually be turned into ornaments.
