Andries - he's amazing!   Very, very well done!   And yes - I'd recognize him anywhere!  Nice!

Thanks you all for the kind Input everyone, it got me thinking on my scrap wood toys i made treu the years, then the Moonshiner is mabee the piece du resistance, got a picture op from  half off a woodman i build as a windmill toy back in 1979 it still works after all those years outside ,only the propellors broke off in a spring hale not long ago,  been doing it for years come think of it , always saving left overs and scrap pieces  from all my wood builds, either it bee a CBG or a frame  or a cabinet a shed or what ever.Use to make masks aswell like in the Dogface, he still hangs on joppe's room the other once are sold or  given away! getting to nostalgic here ! thanks greeeettsszzz A.D.

Craftsmanship and Care, Andries.  So much of that and so much thought and went into the moonshiner.   I like my hobo jack.  He was fun to make and fun to show off.  But he was an easy knock off in one day.  Your guy took a lot of time and effort and so did the video.  I admire your work.

Thanks for the tips Andries. I'm launched into a carving myself. It just looks too fun not to try one.

That Dave is a treu the body wire ,bend at the end's so its loose in its movement, the paint is sticky and the joints stick up, and a verry thin thred was not availeble so i used old and new bike wheel spokes, they are rust free and verry strong,for joint connection, jep he danses , the trick is in the crank at first i had it a half a inch but that was still way way to steep and big!, so i tuned it down to 3 mm and maybee it still can loose a mm, but i leave it as it is, it suits me like this, every thing is in motion, just as i had hoped Thanks Dave Glad you Like it! greeeeeettssszzz A.D.
