This miniature Nativity set can be cut in just a couple hours. It's small enough to sit on your desk at work or just about any place with a few inches of space. I cut this Nativity from 1/4" Baltic Birch plywood. It could just as well be cut from different species of hard wood. I found it best to use a #2/0 blade to help keep the details sharp.
I have a confession to make. I idea to store all the pieces in the hut was an after thought. That's why not all the pieces fit. I'm going to change that by extending the walls and roof all the way to the front of the porch in the next one I build. I will work on the design changes tomorrow if I have time. If you want the update go ahead and cut the characters and I'll have the revised hut soon. If you don't want to wait you can easily change the depth of the walls and roof pieces.
I also wanted to pass on a note that I am way behind on email again. I do try to read all the email but unfortunately can't always answer them all. Please keep them coming and I'll do my best to keep up.
