Slide of the Month:Chain Slide


  November 2024

  Time to make: 3 hours

  Finishing: 1 hour

  Original design:  Whittlin Jim













This was the other slide I missed publishing from Whittlin Jim and what a great slide  to make!

Carved from a single piece of red maple, this chain and weight took a sharp knife, keen eye, and so much patience to release each piece from the others. Sanding took almost as much time as it did in carving. Finishing was also a challenge as it needed to keep each part from touching the others while applying the poly.
