Hi Friends,
I´m from Argentina and I live in Rosario. I´m a bone carver always learning and in this process I´ve found this wonderful place. My designs are part of the Maori universe and I found some incredible carvers here. I´m part of another carver forum, but the styles are different and the materials also very different from bone. I´m impressed with the quality and originality of the pieces and tutorials here at Tiki Central. I´ve been reading some posts (Paipo´s and Tama´s specially) looking for some instructions on how to work with Pounamu as a friend send me a piece from NZ. Here we don´t have this kind of stone, and I´m like a little baby with a new toy, so now I have to rearange my shop to work with this wonderful material. I´m thankful and amaze to see how generous the NZ´ers are.
Thanks for sharing all this knowledge as I live in the far side of the world.
Thanks to you all.
Hugs,
Sebas
