The hands are cut from paper and I got the hour hand glued down and the minute hand is glued to the reindeer motor. I have to turn the motor off and on a couple times to get it to run backwards.

I've got to look for that sound. Where did you find yours?

I love those moments. I like to wave at them as they pass by.
