Free Pattern: Christmas Buck
By Judy and Dave Peterson
Unlike most of my patterns, this project comes with a lesson. I developed my original deer pattern many years ago, and it wasn’t very successful. A couple of years went by, and I signed up for a wildlife art show where my booth attracted quite a few woodworkers. One of them identified himself as a taxidermist. I asked him what was wrong with my deer pattern. He looked it over carefully, and said, “The legs are too short.” His occupation allowed him to put the problem into words! At home, I added 1/16” (2mm) to each leg above and below the knee, and my deer puzzle was successful.
Cutting the Puzzle
This puzzle is pretty straightforward:
Attach the pattern to the blank
Cut the pieces
Sand everything smooth, round the edges slightly with a flap sander,
Finally, seal the project with clear Danish oil
