EAGLE ON ARROWHEAD

EAGLE ON ARROWHEAD - PHASE 1

September 22, 1997

The eagle has been traced and cut out of the moose antler.

The eagle was sketched and photocopied, then the photocopy was cut to form the pattern. I smoothed the surface area of the moose antler to be cut with the Foredom grinder prior to tracing. The eagle was cut from the antler using a 16" band saw. (The quality of the blade makes a huge difference when using a band saw. The higher quality blades cut more easily and can take more twisting and turning.)

Note the wonderful colouration of the antler under the outer layer of bark!
