Good work in any case.

Middle of July - 14 months after four level back fusion and still not ready for chainsaw or large carving work yet. I continue to try and stretch the time I can sit and carve. As long as I can create art, no matter how small- it's the best way to spend the day.

Very nice and very sharp pendents. I really like the position of the hole for the cord. At first I didn't know what they were for until reading the rest of the posts because you can even see the hole. Keep up the great work.
