Whirligigs
Here are the latest versions of 2 whirligigs. The first was designed by C.J. Sale in the late 1980’s. He used pine, which didn’t last long outside despite a good paint job. I rebuilt it this winter using cedar.
This one is from a plan in “Scroll Saw Woodworking & Crafts” summer 2007. I modified it to a more appropriate 4-blade propeller and used a paint scheme that is similar to WW-II paint schemes.
