This butterfly is 11" wide. I cut the wings from 1/8" baltic birch ply. The body is 1/2" dowel rod sanded to shape. The wings are inserted into small dados drilled into the body. Drill the wing dados at an angle so the wings are in the proper orientation.

Think Safety
Remember to keep the safety of yourself and others in your work shop in your thoughts at all times. Always wear eye and ear protection. Follow all the manufactures warnings that came with your power tools. If I demonstrate something on this web site that you don't feel is safe, don't do it. Your safety is your responsibility. Fingers are handy things, try to keep all of them.
