The Latest Work of My Handsome Carpenter

Oh my goodness - I do not know where I have been hiding lately, but it's been FOREVER since I've posted anything! So much has happened, good, bad, & ugly but it's been a great couple of weeks. Even the bad & ugly give me the opportunity to learn a little more & hopefully begin to trust the Lord a little more. But that's a topic for another post. THIS post is all about Michael's toy making. He has made a couple really fascinating things lately.

This is an elephant puzzle.

I think it's about the coolest thing I've ever seen & no, I don't think I can solve it.

This little guy is going to multiply & become at least two birthday

presents for family members who have a soft spot for pachyderms.

And this is Old McDonald's Farm. I think Michael is a genius.
Each little animal & the barn are a puzzle.

I watched him cut some of these out with his scroll saw.

I had no idea how he had to think ahead with where the blade would be

& how to get around corners, etc.

I was fascinated.

And now that your interest is piqued, come back soon for a pic of Michael's

most recently completed project!
