GIANT 8-Bit Mario

This is how to make a giant wire stitched mario decoration made with wood squares.
It measures 29 1/" Tall x 22 1/8" Wide
This project is very tideous, and takes alot of patience and time.

You will need:
-Drill
-Plier's
-Wire
-Tablesaw
-3/8" wood
-Wooden block (to drill into)
-Spray Paint
-Sand Paper
-drill bit(small)

Using the table saw, cut strips of 3/8" wood, 1 7/8" wide, then cut them into squares
you will need 143 squares to make mario, making a couple extra never hurts
after sanding each ones edges you now have to
paint them as follows,
37-red
24-brown
7-black
2-yellow
42-skin color
31-blue

using a drill and really small bit, the same size as the wire you choose, drill your holes so they line up when you put the squares together

cut the wire into 2-3" sections bend them around the pliers making a U

put them through the holes

using a drill twist the wire's together and cut down, bend over using pliers or hammer.

I found it was easiest to make the sections corresponding to color, then you can easily put it all together after its all the sections are together

Using the piece of wood i drilled into, and all the bits of wire i cut, I put them in the holes and
whooa, pretty cool
