One of my college roomates is getting married next month in Phuket, Thailand. As a gift to him and his wife, I've designed, fabricated, and painted a pair of stylized Korean wedding ducks. Aside from being cute decorations, the ducks are a way to visualize the current state of a relationship: a happy couple points their ducks face to face while a not-so-happycouple points their ducks away.

Making these ducks made me realize how out of touch I am when it comes to working with wood and fabrication in general. Overall, this was an amazing experience to attempt a radically different project. I hope the couple keeps their ducks endlessly pointed at each other.

You can view the process in the photoset. I have to give a big thanks to Steve for providing the idea, guidance and resources that were necessary to achieve a tangible outcome.
