Ben, finished up that Tang & got an other one cooking.
Thanks Jimmy.
Grog, You know haw to make a guys day. I have arrived.
Tmec, You needed to move closer to pick up one of the
spirit hook guys. they are 200 lbs. Hard to ship.
Tgods, I can always use an other finger, thanks.
Both of the Tangs are practice for a log my bud gave me.
It's Florida oak & it's 2 ft tall & 18 in wide.
The first one I screwed up by putting the hands on the
outside of the legs, and ran out of room for the legs.
He's 10 in tall & would make a good lamp.
They are both mango wood.
The 2nd one is OK so far. I may start the big log next.

Thank you Benjamin.
