Awesome. These will make excellent Christmas gifts but I will have to get my Dremel out. I'll post my Dremel version and see what you think. Keep on, keeping on!
I love this idea but I think one of the the dimensions on the pattern appears to be incorrect - the depth of the roof is shown as 1/4" which is half the size of the top part! Am I reading this wrongly??
Thanks for the question! The pattern itself isn't necessarily drawn to scale, however the dimensions are correct as shown. The roof isn't as deep as depicted in the picture. But I tried to get the hole symetrical and the base and portion under the roof are 1/2 inch. The slope of the actual lantern roof is less steep than what I show in the pic. Sorry that it may be a little misleading. Thanks for watching!
Thanks! I guess I meant easy relative to some of my other carvings I've done. I know it may not be easy for everyone. Thanks for the comment and thanks for watching!
Thanks going to do one

What did you use for a handle?
If you're referring to the metal rings, they are earring hoops. You can find them at most craft stores.

Thank you! @@fouroakscrafts7240
IT APPEARS TO BE A 4X4" RATHER THAN A 2X4" PIECE OF BASSWOOD??
It's a 2in X 2in X 4in long piece of basswood
@@fouroakscrafts7240your numbers come out to 4.5 inch block
Beautiful. But I don’t think there’s anything easy about it. Beautiful work.
