Trace out a bottom
board at least 1/4" thick and cut it out.

Bottom board glued
on and the hard corners that need to be rasped off indicated
by the hash marks. Note I cut my bottom board rough, glue on
and then sand to fit on the sanding station |

Body finished. The
hashed out area is where the head will go and will need just
enough rasping to flatten for the head.

Scribe a pair of square
lines on the top and side to line up your pattern on. Transfer
the pattern and drill out a hole the size of the eye. (the Mike
Harde method) If you are not using glass eyes, drill a small
hole as a reference for eye location. Head patterns are on page
6
Note: The
heads for Frankenscoters focus on simplicity and durability.
This bills and simple shaping are what they are intended to look
like.

Cut the head out
top side first and then put a few drops of hot melt glue to reassemble
the head
