Laojia, Yeah Don't like the checking but it was free so I can't complain.
Coconuttzo, Thanks. Took a few years but the chisel collection continues to grow. As far as the Oak sign It probably wont interest any one here when complete. It's for a local church.
Lake, Thanks. Yeah looking forward to summer, It's not that far away (I hope)
Eric, Thanks.
The Maori guy won the coin toss this morning so I did some work on him today.

Nice set of V-parting tool... The maori guy seem like happy to find his hands. For the sign, even for the local church, I will be interested to watch!

Yes I am. Been working on a few at once.
This one is getting under way.
Some of this...
And some of that.
And here is what is left of that big chunk of oak. Not sure what kind of oak this is, but it is by far the hardest piece of wood I have ever cut into. Got's a ways to go and whole bunch of lettering still to do. Luckily they started me early on this, It's due in September.
I think I might have another one in the works also?
