The complex blend of comedy and threat in the mounts on early
American carousels still fascinates children and adults. For those
who want to create that antique animal charm, Dale Power provides
direct instructions and 267 color photographs illustrating all the
steps necessary to transform a simple basswood blank into an
impressive carousel goat like those that might have adorned
carousels built between 1860 and 1930. Dale uses a variety of hand
and power tools to complete his projects. Once the carving is
complete, wood burning, painting, and mounting techniques are
discussed which will bring your carousel animal to life. Patterns
for seven additional, uncommon carousel animals and a color gallery
are provided to further inspire carvers. With a combination of
straightforward instructions and full color illustrations, this
book will be a valued addition to the libraries of novice and
advanced carvers alike.
