Penguin-swing

[thehoghunter]

This was my backup plan (in case I didn't get my skating penguins done for Xmas). Found picture of it on a site that sells plans to build it - I didn't build it like they showed (different size - plus added the 'baby' penguin on it).

See pictures in post 21...pics from photobucket no longer showing up here


Front view



I made it by just looking at their picture, so it should be easy enough to copy this also.

back view



I cut a styrofoam ball into a broken egg shell shape and put the baby penguin inside (with a peg screwed onto it's back which was then screwed into the large penguin (from it's back) to hold it in place.

I attempted to update the original post that has all the blank photobucket photos by adding this pic, but could not get it to go in correctly...so I had to update here.
