Basset Hound Whirligig

Basset Hound whirligig (body...11"L / leg span...9"L)

*** This is a made-to-order item. I do not have one in stock. I will make one to your specifications - just for you. Made-to-Order items generally ship about 10 business days after the order is received. However, if I have an order backlog, it could be longer. If timing is an issue, please contact me to find out my current schedule. ***

The whirligig's body is cut from 3/4" or thicker wood (plywood, pine, or whatever type of wood the artist deems as appropriate for the whirligig). The wings/legs are cut from finnish birch, painted with exterior acrylic paint, and sealed with Polyshield Hydrocote...a weather resistant protectant. I use brass hardware (screws, washers, bearing, propeller and pivot tubes). High quality products are used to make my whirligigs more durable. A 5-1/2 inch stainless steel nail and instructions for mounting are included.

**When you purchase a whirligig, you WILL NOT receive a whirligig post/stake. You will receive a 5" nail and mounting instructions ONLY. If you wish to purchase a ready-made whirligig post, there are several variations of posts for sale in my shop.

Some assembly is required. Wings/legs are not attached during shipping. Instructions will be included for attaching the wings/legs.

*Please note that each whirligig is slightly different-handcut and handpainted, with some variations in color shades and details.
