Holly Cow, need help
« on: November 30, 2014, 07:31:51 pm »
I recently purchased the Sheila Landry pattern for the 5 reindeer and sleigh.  I completed the sleigh, and was going to start on the reindeer.  Showed the sleigh to my wife..... big mistake.... she says, she would rather have is a winter horse drawn sleigh than the reindeer.  Coarse my response was alright, I bet my niece will like it!  But thinking about it a horse would be kind of cool.  So has anyone seen a horse pattern, made the same method as the reindeer?   I cannot recall ever seeing one, nor could I find one.

Here is my sleigh.  Horse or reindeer to  follow.....

Great looking sleigh, Paul,

If you have the Holiday 2009 issue #37 of Scrollsaw Woodworking and Crafts, there
is a horse drawn sleigh in there. The horse is abt 9 3/4" Long.
If you do NOT have that magazine, I don't think it would take me long to make a
similar version from a silhouette or clip-art. Just let me know if you would like a
particular stance (Can't promise but, will definitely try to make it to your liking)
and let me know about how long it should be to be in a good proportion to the sleigh.

God Bless! Spirithorse

I just ordered the issue.  Even if I don't like the horse, it will give me a chance to see if I might like the magazine.  Thanks for the help.   

How is this one?

That's a nice one Bob, thank you.  I'm not sure I am smart enough to make it 3 dimensional,  but if the one in the magazine is not workable I will try to work with yours.  I like the stance you gave it.

Thank you

Paul,

You might try asking Sheila if she has a pattern.  If not maybe she would make one.
