Fig. 6. Platform Bases.
GOOSE
This project may be made of 3/8" stock and fastened to a platform base ([Fig. 6]).
The platform is made of two rectangular pieces one on top of the other. The upper is 1-1/2" by 2-1/4"; the lower, 2-1/4" by 3". The grain in the two pieces should cross to prevent warping.
To fasten the goose to the platform, outline on the upper piece of the platform the position for the foot. Hold the goose with foot up. Drive 1-1/2" brads thru the upper piece of the platform into the foot.
On the upper side of this upper piece of the platform, locate points at each corner, 1/4" from the outer edges, and drive 5/8" escutcheon pins thru it into the lower piece of the platform.
Smooth all parts, and color the body white with black trimmings. Make the bill yellow, the feet red and the platform green.
