Made from plans in a book on scrollsaw dinosaurs, it stands around 2′ high, and was made with a combination of the scrollsaw and bandsaw. A video podcast briefly covering the construction will be available shortly.

To finish, it is currently being glued up, and then will be sprayed with a grey undercoat, and then a stone finish spraypaint to give it a bit of (in my eyes) a fossil look. All up, total construction (including finishing) time is approx 5 hours.
