Members, I saw some turned figurines on line and said, “Self, you could make that”, so, by George I did.  I tried very hard to make her tasteful, no Barbie Doll proportions and wearing a floor length natural edge gown.  The hat is part of the same limb I made the rest of it from, glued on at an angle. The wood is FOG, kind of looks like oak but the bark seems to not be oak.  Oak has a distinctive oder but I did not smell that.  Very heavy and dense wood that actually feels like oak when I put a tool to it.  Wet and some cracking did happen.
John
