Arts & Crafts: A Rolling Thread

We very sadly lost the goodest of all good boys just before Christmas. Here’s my little portrait of him I made for my parents and sister. :heart:

Simple two-player stacking game. :slightly_smiling_face:

Rules:
Only the player with the dark pieces can score - they try to build as high as possible. The player with the light ‘point’ pieces tries to sabotage by stacking them awkwardly. The dark player can ‘bank’ the points and end the round by successfully placing the head piece on top. Double points if your stack survives a “Tumblin’ Tony Tail Twang!”

Made with beech, some felt and a spring!

This is INCREDIBLE! You should get in touch with some toys companies!

Haha, I’m SO bad at that side of things. Would happily just give the concept over to someone else to do all that sort of stuff for me. Always much more excited about what’s new and next!

Here’s one of the final films from my main personal project. :heart::telescope::heart:

Also added little sneak peek behind-the-scenes. :sparkles:

You can follow the whole project over on my insta: https://www.instagram.com/hellorangus/

(Think this is a somewhat dead thread, feel a bit silly always posting, but thought I’d share anyway. :upside_down_face:)

I think it’s only “dead” in that we’ve got other threads in use for some crafts, so don’t feel silly posting in here!

Just did like 16 lino prints and think I’ll need a fortnight for my shoulders to recover :see_no_evil:

Wasn’t even trying to do print quality pressing, so was going quite quickly and not pressing down so much but JFC I’d forgotten how hard it was. Wonder if the baren makes much difference (never going to do it enough to need a proper press)?

Just finished building my new portable woodwork bench. So happy with how it turned out! So excited about what it will allow me to do! :blush:

Should say, based on this excellent design!:
