The length of this reindeer sleigh is 16". The reindeer are almost 6" long. The sleigh can hold a candle or other item up to 2 3/4" deep. I did not include a pattern for the base. It is optional and you can just free hand cut the base.
If you look closely at the closeup of the reindeer you will see that I placed a small metal ring in their nose. Once I find the appropriate reins I will tie them to the rings and over to the sleigh.
For a more impressive presentation you could cut more reindeer with a lead dear like Santa's sleigh.
This is actually a very simple pattern to cut. The hardest part is gluing the legs to the reindeer and make them stand up with all four hoofs on the ground.

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.
