Hang10 if I am one thing it is consistent, and manage to include a few hours every day for carving. I get too bored working on the same thing, so have many going at the same time.

These are commissioned walking sticks carved from wood brought back from Hawaii.

I was not happy with "Jack" so stripped him of his paint, did a better job of finishing, and re-did the bottom light box as the first attempt was too flimsy.

I carved it from a solid block this time, and will be able to detail the pillars with something.

Here is the old version.

I added a bottom light to this mahogany piece.

Slowly working "Webster", a plank of purple heart.

I finally found a tool that works well on this hard as Hades wood.
