The Carousel

It has been figured out! Jmjtat figured it out on Craftree. I am going to try to make the carousel from the book by Ineke Kuiperij. I need to finish the "doily" so I know how big to make the substructure for the floor. The doily will be the floor. I plan to 3d print the parts I need to hold it together. Ineke used wood and a metal dart board frame. This will take a while though. I was trying not to say so if i got discouraged or it didn't work out, then I could duck and cover. Ha ha. Told you if anyone guessed, I would admit it. So now you know.






Does anyone know if anyone else has attempted this? I have not seen it anywhere.

  2. I made a hot air balloon once and thought that was ambitious. This is really a stunner! Can't wait to see your progress!

  3. I just saw someone on Instagram trying this unless it was you. I saw it once long ago and wanted to make it but could never find the book. It is a mega project but a wonderful end result. 🌹😄🌹
