Boy Scouts wear neckechiefs, and for
almost a
hundred years we've carved little neckerchief slides to hold them.
The
modern Boy Scouts like to call them 'tie slides', and the shorter name
is
easier to type, but to me they're neckerchief slides. I've also
seen them called 'woggles', but I think
that is specifically the name for the turk's head knot used for
Wood Badge neckerchief slides.

Scouting.
Slides Carved By John Reynolds
These are
slides that I've carved.
Also, here is a step-by-step guide to making the matchstick slide that we present to
the new Scouts who join our troop.

Slides from John Alexy
A new contributor! John Alexy is a Cubmaster and Assistant Scoutmaster
in West Linn, OR.
John Alexy has also given me a spreadsheet of neckerchief slides from Boys' Life
and from sources on the web. John says: This is a list of Slide of the month
listing from Boy's Life Mag, listing month and year and page for many
Whittlin' Jim's Slide of the Month articles, plus other items I thought
were interesting from BL mag. I also have listed many other
slides from your website. I have never been able to find a
compiled list of BL Slide articles and a few years ago I discovered the
"Way Back Machine" to view Boy's Life Mags and articles. so ofer
time I compiles an index. I also have added a few other slides I
like and have found.
