Another creature from the woods: Nellie the Elephant.
« on: June 19, 2020, 03:59:17 pm »
While walking my dog in the woods, I found another interesting piece of wood. Went back home to get a saw, cut it off, brought it home and let it dry for a few days. Then I sanded it using 400 grit sandpaper and treated it with linseed oil. Made a base from some leftover plywood scrap, sanded and oiled it.

The shape reminds me a bit of an elephant, so I christened it Nellie the Elephant.

Some pics:
