The first things I made once I'd installed my jewellers peg.

My first saw cut for twenty odd years. I was so impressed with how long the blade lasted. I'd of had to replace it..

...at least once when studying, but I cut it out with the same blade. I was so impressed I took photos.

I used electrical wire for the ball of wool.

A little inelegant at the back...

...but this was the prototype..

The owl is an interpretation of a Dolce&Gabbana design. I think it was a drawing from a pattern.
