Outdoor Nativity scene
comments (2) December 25th, 2009 in Reader's Gallery
This is a nativity scene that was a gift from Genarp parish to its members. It is 4m long and 1.8m high. I built it in elm planks that I found forgotten in a barn. I drew the scene and made the long cuts with a jigsaw and finished up with japanese files. I let it soak in raw linseedoil to be able to manage the Swedish winter. I only got 20 days to finish and this was the design I came up with that could be done in this time frame. I was able to finish just in time and the people in the parish was pleased.
Design or Plan used: My own design
