Re: Carousel Build
The wife has been asking me to build one of these for some time now and I could not figure out the best way to do it until now! Looks like I have my summer project! Thanks for the great tutorial.

The gang's all here! Cut out the characters and first coat of primer. Next is a light sanding and another coat.

Re: Carousel Build
This is such a great project. Will you be publishing a how-to on this project with dimensions & drawings, etc.?

Even though the DIGWDF Store has been closed for two years, it's still awesome!
User guides, documentation and other files are still free and available for downloading.

I don’t think he can publish the plans because they’re something that he bought. I’m sure that he’ll tell you where he got the plans from though.

Re: Carousel Build
The plans are from Winfield Collections. I'm using them as a 'guide' and making some alterations as I go. For example, I'm planing on having 3 characters move up and down - not in the original plans.
Started painting the characters this week. I'll be posting pictures of them soon.
Thanks for the kind words!!!
