[whirligiger32]

You must have been 10 years old then!

[musicbox193]

@whirligiger32 I was way younger.

Are you ever coming back to Seattle?

[musicbox193]

I've always liked these whirligigs.

They're displayed at the Seattle Center Convention Hall every year, right?

[newfoundland042961]

Amazing! Truly pieces of art! You are so right NOT to sell them and I'm glad they will be enjoyed by all!

[MateoJH]

I counted more than 6. lol

[SwampToons]

Superb!

[dragonfitter]

[Rodolfsk8]

bizarre, but really creative

[tlast2O12dude]

[whirligiger32]

Do you have a DVD available?

[whirligiger32]

YES, just make a comment.

[whirligiger32]

I DO HAVE A DVD FOR SALE

[bloosilir]

@whirligiger32 nice talking to your self forever alone

[threeque]

I just watched all of your videos. Loved them all. Sir Issac newton I think is my favorite. And the Figure Skating Pair gets honorable mention for its simplistic beauty.

[bentmd8]

Thanks for the nice comments. The Figure Skaters was the second whirligig that I ever made. It shows that mechanics are not that important. Do what appeals to you with your God given abilities. Why some antique novice made whirligigs sell at Christies and Sothebys auctions fetch $50,000. or more.

I'm also reading the book whirligig. These are amazing.

[shadyalien]

These whirligigs are all very, very nice, sir, but the kidwash one sticks out the most. It's the kind of toy that a person would fondly remember from his earliest childhood and still get a chuckle out of when he's 80. If I was even somewhat rich, I'd offer you $5000 for it. Your work is amazing.

[jameswsa]

These are great!

[kevbo7s]

Awsome!

[TVDOCTOR]

Very, very nice.

You should come to our Festival next year!

Check the video I have up of the last one.

[tandgdrywall]

Wow those are really neat...I'm actually reading the book Whirligig by Paul Fleishman for school, and I wanted to see exactly what kind of Whirligigs there are, so I came onto YouTube...nice work. I admire your talent :)

[proph3t0607]

im reading it too :)

[yakk13]

can't imagine how long it would take to make these

[whirligiger32]

They take about three months each or about 200hours. That's why I wont's sell them for a few hundred dollars, the amount most people are willing to pay. I hope they go to a folk art museum someday

[rdgkelly]

Great

[Huntsman43]

fantastic

[jkjk3264]

ahh i'm never going to get how people make it do that =(.

[StopMoColorado]

I love the mechanisms and carving in your whirligis - top rate whirligigs and automata! :)
