I called it "Stud Hoss" for the gallery. All the information is included in the comments under the photo.
It's Charlie's horse from Steve's catalog.
Give it a look,

Great job Gabby!  It really looks nice. The weathered wood frame just adds to the project.  :)

Well Gabby I can't say more than I've read above.  You did a outstanding job of cutting that stallion.  It is on my list to cut.  And I just LOVE looking at your frame and thinking about my Gram ma n Grand papa's house way, way back yonder and I remember that wood looks real, real close to what I remember their old house looking like.  Later....  Danny  :+}

Nice cut on the horse. Charlie is one of my favorite designers. Hope the neighbors don't miss that piece of fence you used to make the frame. lol Thanks for letting us see your work. Bobby

Looks great Gabby.
After seeing the frame I cant help but think I should be putting the pile of old fence palings I got the other week to better use, I have been breaking them up and putting them in the fireplace .. I might have to see how they'd look as a frame.

Thanks for the nice comments, I appreciate them, kind of makes the whole thing more satisfying when folks who know and do the same sort of thing give you an ATTA BOY.
Old Barn wood has become quite a thing with interior designers and such and probably costs an arm and a leg. They like it weathered, wormie, discolored, distressed just about any way you've ever seen it. That could be pretty expensive kindling wood you have there. The neighbors fence is too new, I'll give it a few more years. LOL
Sheila I'll check out your comments as soon as I post this.  :-* LOL
