If he'd spin that fork around backwards he could work with Goofy at Walmart! :mrgreen:
Cool ornament, Donald was always my favorite, cool, calm and collected...NOT!

racedoug33 nice stuff you make. I can't imagine sawing something that detailed without it breaking.

Dave That's really cool. Let us know if it gets to stay.

Got this in the mail today. It's a 2008 Hallmark ornament titled "Oh What Fun!" and is Donald Duck attempting to assemble a bicycle. Note the handlebars and seat are flip flopped.

Cheers!

Yeah maybe they should have titled it "Christmas in the stock room at Walmart"

@kingsting that's an interesting ornament

I think this was the first bike ornament we ever got.

I have made these before, but these ones will be donated to the Boise Bicycle Project so they can sell. Some parts are from there and some from my stash. I plan on making more if these sell.

Here are some Chain Stars. I still need to put a ribbon on or something to hang them with. I made 17 of these for present toppers.

I made a few more of the Reindeer to take down to the BBP.

Chain Stars are neat. Never seen them before.

They are not my idea. My wife found a picture online and told me to make some . Who am I to argue about playing with bike parts. :wink:

Chain Star Recipe.
1. Find a nice clean chain or make it clean.
2. Cut 5 full links and reconnect into a circle.
3. Slightly tighten every other pin.
4. Star forming the star by pulling those tighten pins into the center.
5. After you have finished forming the star, slighty tighten the pins on the points.
6. Paint if you want.

Hahaha. SurlyGirl has the Etsy market cornered, I already looked. :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

Just Kidding. I like making them, they are easy and my wife told me to make them. How often does you wife tell you it is okay to play with bikes. Plus less gifts that I have to buy.
