Snake finished
Snake finished
Finally finished my snake or at least as finished as I do. He is a diamond back but instead of a ball in a box for a tail he got a little plunger for a rattle. The main reason for that is I like to whittle plungers more than ball in a box. Knives used were primarily a case congress in cv and a flexcut. The baby showed up one day as I was waiting on my sweet wife to shop. Thanks for letting me share.

That is awesome! Love the Diamondback concept and that baby snake is fantastic too. Neat stuff!

Re: Snake finished
Oh yes, definitely. I have two #43's. One is a Half Whittler and the other is a "full" Whittler. I like the Half Whittler a little better but I'm very fond of them both. Thanks for asking.doglegg wrote:Thanks Railsplitter. Are you pleased with the S&M 43 1/2?

Re: Snake finished
Thank you Gentlemen for you kind words.
Re: Snake finished
I think I saw your post on your 43 and thought it looked like a very pretty and useful knife.Railsplitter wrote:Oh yes, definitely. I have two #43's.

Re: Snake finished
Cool project!
If I have seen further it is by standing on the shoulders of giants.

Re: Snake finished
As I fight with my first project its good to see others with real talent. My ball in cage is slowly devolving into a pile of kindling or maybe hamster litter.
Re: Snake finished
Redhawk it is usually a competition between the kindling pile and the band aid pile. Obviously I am not a carver like Olde Cutler or mrwatch but just a whittler. Relaxing, calming, fun and if something goes right then rewarding. I enjoy a lot of things more than ball in cage, my last one wound up a foot ball in a cage so stay after it and then try something else. Look at all you have learned so far! Maybe I should start raising hamsters on the side.Redhawk44357 wrote:As I fight with my first project its good to see others with real talent.
