The "blank" was turned on a toolroom lathe, (top knot, head, neck, outside dimension of arms, curved surface of toes) then the rest was done on a v-mill.

Thanks! It was sort of an experiment to see how small was practical.... I'm confident I can go smaller, but not for a while.... my eyes, neck, & furrowed brow need to recover first.

Very cool. And perfect presentation. When I saw the first pic, I thought to myself, "Neat. Looks really good." Then I saw the second picture, and my jaw dropped! You DEFINITELY made an impression with this one!

Well done! smile.gif
