Hand Carved Basswood Bobber!

I have seen how to make bobbers out of styrofoam or cork but I wanted a challenge. I carved a bobber out of Basswood. Basswood is light and easier to carve than other woods. I used a Flexcut knife from Woodcraft. Then, I painted the bobber with acrylic paints and added a top coat of fast drying Polyurethane. The final piece was the 2mm eye that I superglued to the bobber. The parts list is below. I enjoy fishing for bass and other fish and it will be even more fun to try my hand using a bobber I fashioned. Enjoy #bassfishing #fishing #woodcarving #bobber

Hey sir I was going to say if you want to do that a little easier if you go to your local hobby lobby and buy one of their bead drill bits it drills the hole not on to mention it makes a round bead large small whatever you need
