Birdie's Biscuit Cutters

I've been asked many times to make biscuit cutters. So what I've come up with is a design that goes back to my childhood. When I was a young boy I spent a summer with my grandmother and grandfather. One of my fondest memories from that summer is of my grandmother, Birdie, making homemade biscuits to go with the strawberries or the apples that we had picked that day. It was one of my favorite things to do with my gram because she would let me cut the biscuits out of the dough using her wooden biscuit cutter. Picture a young boy covered from head to toe in flour and you're probably getting close.

That was a long time ago but I've tried to recreate that same biscuit cutter.  I'm also using special wood to make these. The wood that I am using are off-cuts from a baseball bat manufacturer from here in Maine. They aren't throwing the wood into the landfill and I'm making something beautiful and functional from not so perfect wood.
