A Homemade Whirligig




My father has been making these ever since I bought him a $2 "how-to-make whirligigs" book at a garage sale. He carves them himself, and, frankly, I think they are exquisite! My father is a perfectionist when he does anything, so these are as perfect as you can imagine! If you want one, contact me!

The windmill portion spins, the woman's arms go up and down, as does the churner, and it also spins from its base, so it acts as a weather vane, as well! These things are spectacular!

Amy, wow those Whirligigs are nice!! Tell your father that he does a wonderful job making them! I can't believe he carves the whole thing, that's amazing! :)
