Noah's Ark for Christmas

it’s wonderful.
The two sections really make it a great toy for story-telling/play. Awesome

I have a nephew names Noah. He’s too old now, but that would have been a good project for me about eight years ago. It looks great.

Very nice, I think your safe…that ark is going to get lots of play time :>)

I really like your ark. I am sure your niece and nephew will treasure it

I really like your ark too, a wonderful toy to play with and enjoy.

Great job, There’s a toy for the ages, do all the animals fit inside?

The first moon roof, built for the giraffes. Great toy!

Beautiful toy. I made one of these as well. Yours is very nice!

Thanks for all the nice comments.
All the animals fit inside – if you push and shove a bit.

Great looking ark. My son borrowed a neighbors and now I have to remake all of the animals. We have the Ark, just nothing to put in it.

What a great project and learning toy/tool. Any reason you chose maple over gopher wood? :-)

-- Tim D. - Woodstock, GA

Great job. Not only will they enjoy playing with it, but so will their kids…

-- My favorite piece is my last one, my best piece is my next one.

Tim D – maple seemed the best timber at my supplier – originally I wasn’t going to stain it, but at the end of the project I decided this would be best.

When I read you were taking up carving, & I opened this posting, I thought WOW! can he ever carve.

Then I read that you bought the animals.

Nice job with the ark though.

That is a great looking ark. It is something that they can not only enjoy now but also later on they can let their children play with it as well.

I’ve got a ways to go before I’m ready or able to carve animals.
I finished a love spoon recently – I’ll post that in the next day or two.

Hi Dick

You did a beautiful job on the Ark. I am sure that your neice and nephew were pleased. Thank you for posting.

God Bless

Very nice. Now you have to make another for when they get older, or they’ll fight over who gets it for their kids…

-- Steven

Great idea, let me start looking for a toy store.
