My tiki's belly thanks you too- the belly button came out great! I also got to see Ben's portfolio while I was there, and some of his jewelry/figurine works in pewter and silver. My arsenal of a whole 4 chisels and a rubber mallot is a rusty joke to Ben's workspace- The reciprocating chisel is amazing to work with- All I can relate it to is using clippers to cut hair... It's almost that easy in terms of control (at least with Palm wood). And I have something else to share that many of you have been dieing to see- A few minutes of Benzart in action carving, up close and personal taken with the movie capabilities of my camera- It's about 40mb so I just need to compress it first..
