willie525 Posted July 1, 2007 Report Share Posted July 1, 2007 thats cool. how long did it take? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jrhopkins Posted July 1, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 1, 2007 not sure how long it took, i don't keep track of the time, i'm guessing about 8 hrs from start to finish. no template, just drew it out, carved the basic shape and added the details after installing the line and hook ties and ballast. tips? a sharp blade and bandaids:eek: it swims real good, i hope they try it out. got a postcard from them today saying thanks. pretty sure it was from their p.r. dept as the handwriting didn't match the autographs on the card. oh well, hope they get it and not some secretary's boyfriend:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
