Completed October 11, 2015 – entirely on Amtrak. Most of the work was done on the 2nd, a substantial amount by Jethro himself, the young Amish man who sat with me in the Zephyr lounge and built up the core, then blended the colors.

Unlike the two earlier salamanders, this one has wax only on the feet and the end of the tail; the body felted down smooth enough to pass.

He has a home of his own now, but you can write to the Salamander to discuss creation of someone similar for yourself.
