Awesome! That panel piece is really cool McTiki. Like all the colors and small details. What type of wood did you use for that?

I can't believe you got that undercut on the branch in the upper section! In pine as well, super cool.

Thanks guys.
Not that these panels are rushable, but, I really have slowed down as a result of my wife's health. I have another panel right behind this one. Not as big though. The undercuts are so tedious that you have to get the tool inside then turn it on, and likewise for removing it from the work area. I have learned a great deal through painful scrappage. (Elaborate firewood)
Thanks again!
