Made my trap shooter whirligig today,  I am real pleased with it.
thank you Ken Radz for allowing me to use your pattern.
Now I want to try one that moves.

Nicely done Lorace.  I have a Uncle that used to make whirligigs for Christmas gifts for the different families in our clan.  It was always interesting to see what the new year brought.  Thanks for sharing this one with us.

Its working good here,  but we have strong winds at times.   But even if it just rocks the target that is fine with me.
The man that sells them,  and allowed me to make one uses only two.   lol I used paint stir paddles.
