These little wooden elephants are a fun and simple project made from scrap wood and cut on the bandsaw. They’re perfect if you’re just getting started with the bandsaw or if you’re looking for a quick, satisfying build using offcuts you already have.

I designed these elephants to be beginner friendly, with smooth flowing shapes that are easy to cut, sand, and finish. They work great as shelf decor, nursery pieces, gifts, or just a practice project to build confidence on the bandsaw.

I’ve made these plans completely free so anyone can give them a go.
