This is a quest to make all the slides featured in the Whittlin Jim's "Slide of the Month" in Boy's Life magazine. (Hopefully without doing lasting damage to my hands or fingers.) Blogging my progress along the way. I completed my task in March of 2017 and now post my own designs along with some other "Slide of the Month" contributors.

Knot Slides
Sometime between 2012 and 2015
Time to carve: 3.5 hours
Finishing: 2.5 hour
Knot slides were an interesting addition to my woggles. Worn at the bottom of the neckerchief, in place of trying a knot like some do, these are a nice compliment to the "top" knot. Carved from bass wood during a Merit Badge University at UMASS Amherst and painted with craft. I finished them off with some clear poly.
