Hobby What
I was asked to make some wooden toys recently so after some thought .Hobby horses and dragons would be traditional but with a twist.
They still need a lot of smoothing and sanding but you get the idea .A hazel shank will provide the stick part, this will look better than a brush handle. Hopefully I can find some thin leather strap somewhere to make nice reins for them all .Here are the dragons and horses so far (made with two good eyes again) :)

nice toys with a bit of charecter. i'm sure the children will love them. my daughter has a horse that is similar. it also has reins attached for a bit of extra detail. ken
