Giant Christmas Reindeer Made Out Of Scrap Wood.

Giant scrap wood reindeer. Time for something festive. I made one of these last year out of pallet wood. This year I wanted to make it out of several different types of wood. I used oak and pine pallet, two types of mahogany window frames and scrap beech.

That's the kind of project, where when you look at the finished piece, you just scratch your head and wonder: 'how the heck die they do that?' 👏👏👏

[@EpicUpCycling]

Thanks for the comment, Rara :)

[@debrarandall6913]

Well, now we know. We watched him make it lol. That was a LOT of work, and steps to do that deer. I watched him make a swing box from wood too...it is FABULOUS! My Mom has o e very similar, but not a big and nice as the one he made. I would LOVE to have that! He's a great woodworker. 👏👏👏👏🤛

[@raraavis7782]

@@debrarandall6913 Absolutely. I so wish, I had the option of getting deeper into woodworking...but I live in a small appartement, so having a workshop isn't an option. It's a marvelous craft.

Eric... this is so wonderful. Scraps turned into a thing of beauty. My brother and his wife have cut, shaped, sanded and beautiful painted wooden ornaments for many years. The populous called it 'shabby chic'... except they took they same care, devotion and skill you take. This is heirloom quality and I honour you for your skill, patience, time and love you put into each item. It's a joy to watch. Thank you xxx

I’m almost at a loss for words. I watched the video of what you made with the scrap wood from this project first. The checkered pattern from the different woods is beautiful, and I’m so happy that you used a lighter finish to highlight the pattern.

loved seeing this giant sized. almost made me think this is the best way to make this. HUGE!!!!!!!

[@1jmass]

Most people would look at the wood on your table and see an old window frame and some pallet pieces. You, on the other hand, see…..a reindeer! This is truly a labor of love. I am sure the repetition of glueing, clamping, sanding the dried glue, cutting, repeat, repeat, repeat must get a bit tedious and time consuming, but when that block of wood you ended up with becomes a stunning reindeer, it is all worth it. It is gorgeous. I got a bit confused when you drew the side view of the reindeer, and then you turned the wood around and drew the front view. I wondered how they were going to work together, but I should never have doubted that there was a plan. Another work of art to be treasured every year.
