Contributing Member Ferg Posted March 11, 2011 Contributing Member Report Posted March 11, 2011 There was a lot of interest in the 1776 photos etc. in 1975/1976. I obtained a photo from a library to do this. Made that old frame in my wood shop. The leather was about 8 oz. Veg Tanned from Tandy. Took me several days as I remember. The paint/stain was from Tandy, I don't remember the name of it. Pretty good shape for being 36 years old Thought some folks might like to see it. I would probably do a number of things differently, doing it today. ferg Quote
Timd Posted March 11, 2011 Report Posted March 11, 2011 I did one back then of a Minuteman and the Liberty Bell from a Tandy craft-aid. Certainly not as nice as yours, but you're right about the interest back then. Quote

She is lead designer of the magazine, "Patriots of the American Revolution". She thought I had thrown the carving away. Since she just bought a home it is going to be displayed in a nice spot I am sure. ferg Quote
