Project Information
I made this as a wedding present for my good friends. I used a hardboard template to flush-trim the pig shape after I rough-cut it on the bandsaw. The pig's tail can be used to hang the board on a hook for storage or display. I regret adding the eye…it's pretty but in hindsight it looked better without it. If anyone is interested in the pig template I designed I uploaded it here.
