In this video I improved on my first snowman with the addition of some ebony buttons and eyes and a padoek nose

Great work John, nice to see the different ways others make & detail their's. I've had to stop taking orders on mine for this year, going to be collecting some hard wood for next years snowman crowd.

Well done John. I think the real skill level shows in the final image showing all the snowmen together. Excellent!

Thanks Stephen. I do enjoy making them and they are very satisfying

The tissue that is black...I would think was because the stain wasn't dry...it didn't look dry. Perhaps a hairdryer?

Great project. I wish your music was lower in volume. I turn up the volume so I can hear what you say but then the music blairs out too loud.
@JohnClothier4 жыл бұрын
Thanks for watching. Totally agree with the music. Hopefully you will have seen some of my more recent videos and hopefully will agree that my editing, especially with the music has vastly improved

I was watching Nick from NZ and he used Black Bog Oak. Nearly a quarter of the price of Ebony on Ebay :)
@JohnClothier6 жыл бұрын
Debbie Finlayson agreed that bog oak is cheaper but you use what you have. It's a good idea. I have some bog oak that would be good for next time. Think I may give it a go.
