Inspiring work Andy! Excellent detail and precise carving!
All that in 95 degree heat.
Amazing.
I'd love to get outdoors. Except that it is 38 degrees outside.
But your hard work reminds me that I need to get back to carving.
Again, beautiful work!

WOW
Amazing new work. I simply don't know how you reached this level of perfection but I think that's what makes it magical.
Since I've seen your favorite toy (the tormek) I am completly mad about it ! Thanks for sharing the website address too.

I was asked about size, this ought to give you an idea. Overall it's about 13" wide and 50" tall
This side is pretty much done, now i get to flip it over and start again.
