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.

Tarascan Indian Mask
Sometime between 2012 and 2015
Time to carve: 3.5 hours
Finishing: 2 hour
One of my favorite pieces! Carved from red maple it was made using a rotary tool with a saw bit and my knife. Lots of sanding in this one too. A couple of coats of clear poly and a wooden loop glued to the back.
Some good information on the Tarascan Indians of Mexico can be found here Purepecha-Tarascan Indians
