I'm not even taking photos :oops:
I'm working on another witch ..... they're easier than Santas. (no nasty comments, Dave) She's riding a broom - waving to the world.

What are you working on?
I sign every carving with "Phil. 4:13"

I am working on a Santa. I bought a blank at a little carving shop in Osage beack at theLake of the Ozarks. The guy was selling all of the blanks and roughouts he had on hand and getting out of the Business of blanks and roughouts. It is 4 x 5 x 14 inchs. no pictures but sure I can pull it off. Besides, If I don't, I have wasted $10 before on less worthy things. LOL.
In my mind, I think I know what to do b ut then, sometimes My little bride doesn't think I have a mind.

Best to all and God Bless

Rugby players for a father and son in the UK. The father's is a caricature, and the son's is realistic. Waiting for the sealer to finish evaporating so I can paint.

Working on two Moose , moose's, moossey? bulls fighting with a timber wolf. Will be about 15" x 12" x 9' high , one is in the hair burning stage , other is just starting finish carving . Wolf is still roaming around in my mind some where, can't seem to get him to strike a pose that I want to use. Does anyone else have this problem??

CarverRob ~ Cabinets!? Trimwork!? Good grief... You show off.
My carving table is an ancient closet door lifted from a ~blush blush~ trash pile in Air Force housing in the 1970s ... mounted on folding metal legs we bought from Sears for $11. I bought some scrap Formica to cover it in the late '80s.
