I'd like to make a number of those wooden spiral mobiles you see being sold at craft fairs and the like but I'm not sure how to go about it.

Do I need to get strips of wood, lay them out side by side, draw the outline of the mobile and then cut it out?

How do I stop the wood from moving around?

What kind of saw do I need?

What kind of wood do I need?

How do I drill a whole through the middle to insert the spindle?

So many questions but perhaps if someones tackled this before you could post the steps please.

- Thank You -
