Weblos is the highest level in Cub Scouts. Unlike the others, this rank’s symbol is not an animal. I see it as a simplified Fleur de Lis, a predecessor to the Boy Scouts of America symbol. Carving this year’s slide was more like classical woodcarving, a classic shape rather than a caricature. (Where do the eyes go on a carnivore?)
The young recipient is growing fast!
It is carved in Basswood and finished with acrylic, topped with satin poly.

I hate to point out the error, but the aWebelos rank is not the highest rank in Cub Scouting. The arrow of light is the highest earned rank in Cub Scouting.
Really cool slides, though.

Thanks Rob. I guess I need to carve an arrow slide too.
