Giant Articulated Hands

In How To by admin

So I know weโ€™re all going through a lot right now. This whole distancing thing is really starting to wear on us and thatโ€™ll never be truer than during this holiday season. Thatโ€™s why I invented these. Stay 6โ€™ away from your friends and family while doing all the activities just like you used to. Itโ€™s almost like theyโ€™re not …

This giant mass of wood was then carved down freehand using an angle grinder …

Although slathered in facetiousness and irreverence, I feel like it still held some value where we discussed how money shouldn’t …

Each of the pallet slats is scabbed onto with an extra matching pallet wood piece to create the wave profile by freehand power carving each …
