FING-le

Project by rdlaurance posted 225 days ago 819 views 0 times favorited 17 comments Add to Favorites Watch

I needed a handle toggle latch for a new barn door I constructed, and not finding one, I ended up carving a FINGle instead. It is from a large piece of lilac wood, harder than all get out to carve, I kid you not! The second picture shows its size in relationship to my burly hand.

That is so funny. Would be great on an out house door. Great idea.

Thanks for the favorable comments. mtnwild, you’re almost prophetic! The ‘fing-le’ points to the compost pile… lol

My LOML wouldn’t be able to use the barn.
No way would she ”pull my finger” :)
