Drill press and a 3/8" Forstner bit for the loops, the Bakuma 300 (that same pull saw we used at the boat building competition) for roughing things out, chisels for clean-up.There's a very slight a twist in the darker wood (I think it's Koa) 'cause my "hold it together, trace the tail section on to the pin, go at it with the chisel" method wasn't as precise as it should have been.
