Making A Dragon In My To Makers Shop 980709962

  Completed wooden toy dragon ready to finish sitting on my Shopsmith belt sander table. I make this dragon to order. This dragon is my latest build. You can order one of these dragons in my Goimagine Shop . After collecting and cutting the wood to size, I attach the paper pattern to the wood and drill the required holes. I have learned that if I cut the body first and then drill the holes, and the bit catches, I can easily break the part. The dragon's original design called for holes drilled through the neck, which was too weak. I now drill the holes 1/4 inch deep and pug them with contrasting wood that I cut and sand flush. Now, there are inlaid spots instead of holes, and the neck is much stronger. After sanding the back so the pegs are flush, I cut out the body on my scroll saw. This dragon's wings will be a different color from the legs. I am curious to know what kind of wood this is; it came from a box of cutoffs a friend gave me. Cutting the legs for some 1/2" of da...

Dragon Clock Christmas Gift My First Clock

Image
I made two of these for Christmas gifts. It was the first time I ever made a clock. I had initially intended to cut this from solid wood, but the only piece I had was not flat enough to cut on a scroll saw. Flattening the board would take at least 1/4-inch off the wood, and I didn't want it to be that thin, so I decided to cut it from 19mm Baltic Birch plywood. Plywood is a much better choice than solid because it will not break easily. I bored the hole for the clock using a 2-3/8 Forstner bit as per the pattern instructions. I had never drilled a hole this size before. I had to drill with very light pressure to keep the drill press from stalling. At first, I thought the bit was slipping in the chuck; this was not the case. The drill press belt was slipping. I put as much tension o the belt as I could, and it would still slip. More tension helped, but it didn't stop them from slipping. My drill press has a link belt. Perhaps I should remove a link or two from the belts. The nex...

Made To Order Dragon With a Broken Neck

  Wood Dragon Body With A Broken Neck From Drilling Etsy Listing https://www.etsy.com/listing/980709962/ Dragons https://www.etsy.com/shop/odinstoyfactory?search_query=Dragons I usually drill all my holes before I cut out the parts, but this time, I had packed the patterns tight, and I decided to cut the dragon pard first and then drill the holes. After all, it is hardwood and much stronger than pine. Not drilling the holes first was a mistake. While drilling the largest hole, the drill bit caught for just a second and broke the dragon's neck. I will not be doing that again. Fortunately, I was making more than one this time and did not need to start over. I lost the time sent making that one body plus the cost of the wood.  All the parts for one wood dragon. Four legs, two horns, and a pair of wings. #odinstoyfactory #handmade #woodtoys #madeinusa #madeinamerica #dragons
