Last week I presented the materials for making 2 New Large Wizard Staffs. After cleaning-up the branches, it was clear there was enough to make a 3rd smaller staff. I have a supply of root bases from smaller Pride of Madera to provide a perfect top. A saw and measuring tape assisted with matching the…

Dinosaurs – Wizards & Stamps!
Dominic really likes my Wizard Staff. I have learned it’s never a good idea to argue with a T-Rex. So, I made another one for me. After selecting a Very Interesting Root piece for the Top and Liquidambar Branch for the Staff, it was time to get to work. A Brush assisted in cleaning the…
More Dinosaurs & Halloween
Max (Maximillian) & Dominic enjoy the T-Rex hatchling skeletons. Dominic loves my Wizard Staff. But It’s too large for Max and Jeffrey’s Raptor Staff is too small. Max needs a Staff that’s Just Right! That sounds like a familiar Story. Let’s make some Wizard Staffs. The root base from Madera’s Pride makes an excellent…

If you haven’t picked up your decorations you had better hurry before they disappear and are replaced by Christmas ideas.

The New T-Rex’s Perch & Fun for Halloween
This was previously where Dominic hung out. Dominic has moved to better hunting grounds. This spot had to be adjusted for the larger frame on this T-Rex, David. Six more buckets of sand, leveling and two more 15-inch x 15-inch stepping stones will do it. Jerome one of my greyhounds likes this spot too! When…
The Dinosaur Wizard
For Halloween I will become the “Dinosaur Wizard”! I found a Gandalf Wizard Costume on Amazon for $34.49 including tax. The Hat, Robe and belt are in this package the beard and staff are sold separately. This is ok with me, because I will be a beardless Wizard. Plus, the staffs are plastic and I…
The Prehistoric Landscape!
What was the Landscape like during the Age of the Dinosaurs and even before? As Pangaea the Supercontinent rose above the Ocean, lush soft wood forest – Giant Ferns, Cycadeoids – similar to Cycads of today, Ginkgoids, Conifers with broad leaves vs. needles, Horsetails & Rushes (grass like plants with hollow or pithy stems) spread…
