Project Information

This a project which I completed back in July, 2015. The Dragon was entered into the Orange County, CA Fair last year and it received a second place award. All of the woods are their natural color with the exception of the green. The green is bass wood with a green trans tint added. The teeth are made of white corian. I included a couple of photos before the backing and frame was added as well as one before the shaping and finish was added. The pattern came from a past Scroll Saw Woodworking and Crafts magazine. Thanks for looking.

Forgot to mention that the frame was also custom made from Maple with an inlay of Purple Heart.

Many thanks for the great comments. Bruce W., thanks for the design. It was a fun project but way too many hours in the overall completion but well worth the effort.

Douzki I believe there were approx. 170+ pieces overall. The backer board is a piece of baltic birch ply which I was able to arrange a body shop put an auto paint finish with a clear coat and this helped with the overall pop of the project.
