Porsche 911 Carrera – Wood Carving
Using a 2″x2″x5″ block of bass wood and an X-acto knife, I decided to carve my teen-dream car, a late 80’s Porsche 911 Carrera. Janet helped me on the painting…
I used carving scraps for the outside mirrors, then glued them into drilled holes.A dowel was used for the wheels, cutting the lines of the 5 spoke Fuchs alloys in, then mounting each with a small nail. I varnished it when the painting was done, trying to simulate the gloss of metal…

The pictures don’t do this justice… At this scale, I am quite happy with the results!
