Heres a Short Update and
Flounderart:Thanks,Fantastic,way too much, OK, and Big yes..
I'm not sure this was the right oiece of wood to use on such a small carving, the grain is too difficult. Hopefully I can manage to clean it up enough.
One thing I had'nt thought about wasjust posting photos of my old work got a great response and now that I'm creating another piece, it's like will it be as good as my Old stuff. That fearcame up and almost stopped me from showing the thing. Oh well, there it is.

I hope others aren't holding back their new works, it's a big part of this forum's appeal.

Looks like carvin' is like riding a bike Diggin the details Benz. Make a couple more of thse things offer to the TC Ohana and you will have some chisel change in no time.

Thanks, but I need to keep it small. I definately will be butchering up some wood and anything I do, you guys get first crack.If I caan carve enough to sell and make enough money to break even then I;ll be alright. I'll need a Big first-aid kit to cover the band-aids ans emergencey room sewups. So far I've cut my fingers about 5 times and most were pretty ugly(no stitches yet). This is an aspect I had not really thought of that is painfully reminding me.
But I still loove it...GEt In Line.

It's hard to believe you took a 10 year hiatus, this carving is top notch. I'd love to see your other work!
Thanks for the pictures and keep updates coming.
