Smallest tiki carv'n so far , Yellow cedar shift knob, this guy was fun but some smaller chisels would of came in handy.
Night time shot of my carv'n shed.

Aloha station- Knives sound like the way to go with the small stuff, might even get away with
carv'n in the kitchen.
Jeff-I'll try an get of the shiftknob in the car for ya.
Here's a few shots of a piece I carved recently as experiment on going right thru with the
mouth.
Watango productions stall at Chopped Rod and Custom show.Had a top wkend despite the freez'n
cold , the rain Kept the dust down and turned the dirt track drags into a mud fest which was great as there was no shortage
of sweet cars prepared to get really muddy ! Stall went well , sold plenty of tee's as well as 3 good pieces so well worth the trip.

I often carve on the couch. That's no easy feat - if you've met my wife. I leave the sanding for out by the pool.
