do you ever trade out any of your sketches or ideas for others to carve?
i have some good ideas, but was just wondering.
i really admire your style and skill. too bad you're a hillbilly. ;-P
i have a nice 12" x 48" x 2" plank of cherry i need to do something with.
mahalo

I was a hillbilly by transplant at one point! Flatlander southeastern city slicker mostly, though! I do like Ralph Stanley...Hmmm...

BK,
I got the bone carving today. It is very cool. Thanks man. I tried to get it over my Maori's BIG FAT HEAD for a pic, but the line was too short.

Glad you like, G! These should stand the test of time well..I've enjoyed working in bone..it's a very heavy duty material and carves and polishes nicely..

BK, I see a while back you were in need of logs. If they are to your liking, the guy here has piles of air dried logs, 17'. Cheap. And anyone else driving in. Could be a chance to go home with good raw carving materials from Coon Tiki.
It'll be good to see chips flyin' in person from your chisels again.
I gotta scrape some dough together and get your talents working on the things on my list. The cannibal trio and the lodge pole half rounds for my entrance to the Hapa Haole Hideaway. Or maybe some knowledge, skill and drive will rub off on me while we're all together in a month and I'll do it myself!

Indeed.
Your stuff is incredible. I'm just looking forward to the day when I stop cutting myself. Not to mention making a "objet du art" someday. Very nice work. Unbelievable.
