The season's not over yet! It's still the Eleventh day, right?

This is my second entry in my Iron Builder round vs. Carl Merriam.

I've never been much of a technically minded person, so the mechanism to make the teeth chatter is crude. The wind-up motor turns the gears, and on the last gear I have a part attached that strikes the top twice a turn.

My tenth build in my Iron Builder round vs. Carl Merriam using the white seed piece.

This is another result of me fiddling around and making up shapes and then trying to find a purpose for it. :)

Back off, frog. This is duck territory!

My third build in my Iron Builder round vs. Carl Merriam.

I didn't originally set out to intrude on Carl's territory. I was playing around with the seed piece, and found that I'd made what looked like (to my demented mind) a duck. A scene started developing in my head. I was thinking of adding a dog and a shotgun, but I decided on a different route...

For those questioning the look of these, the ducks are loosely based on Mallard Ducks, which are the most prominent species of duck around where I live.

Right from the start of this, I wanted to use the piece to build ship sails. I don't know why. Maybe it works, maybe it doesn't. In any case, I hope I've gotten it out of my system, now.

This is my fourteenth build in my Iron Builder round vs. Carl Merriam using the white seed piece.
