Largemouth
and Smallmouth Bass
Like the trout, these 'bass' puzzles are much more fun than the 'flat' puzzles. These fish puzzles would also be popular with the people who love fish and fishing. They're not as hard to make as you'd think, and you don't 'carve' him, just round him off with the sander. They take a couple of hours to make. The body is one of the easier animals to shape on a sander.
This is a maple wood
smallmouth bass 'stained' and mounted on a walnut plaque. Two
dowels hold him on, so he can be removed and taken apart.
Here is a largemouth bass mounted on a piece of plywood in a picture frame. I include plans for a 'straight' and a 'curved body, and you can position the fins however you like. Later I did more 'wood burning' on this one.
These plans for the largemouth and smallmouth bass, yes, 2 sets of plans,
run $10 postage paid in the USA. It
isn't that hard to construct, involves no carving, only sanding. I use
a 4 inch X 36 inch
sander and a dremel rotary tool. Also a drill press and a
bandsaw with a 1/8 inch blade, I'm sure a scrollsaw would work
too. Be sure to check out my how to do it for the Clamp Assistant.
These make great gifts and toys, kids love them. If you'd rather buy one already made, just click here.
