do you sell these? I think yours is so cool! I want one. I bought one at a festival but it doesn't look as cool as this one.

At this time I don't sell them. That is the only one of that type I have made and it was a special gift for the wife of the man I used for the model. We have recently gotten more woodworking tools, so maybe in the future when I have the time. Thanks for the comment!

Awesome! Nice Jack.

[dulciquilt]

Thanks! He was a lot of fun to make, but even more fun was seeing him dancing on stage with the man who was the model. You can see that in my video called Lord of the Limberjacks. this jack (Dana) is the second from the left being played by his wife, Judy.

I'm not sure what you mean about not being able to hear him dancing. The clacking sound that is the rhythm behind the vocal is the limberjack. On my computer the dancing sound is quite loud.

Wow! That's totally awesome!

Unfortunately, you can't hear the sound of the limberjack dancing, which is the main purpose of the limberjack - it's a percussion instrument.
