Thanks JohnnyP, I hope you are having fun with it. Pine and Coco will carve VeryDifferently. Actually the Cocowhen cured is much harder than the pine and you can get better detail in the coco. Pine is a soft wood and tends to tear out if you aren't careful. I have really enjoyed carving this coconut palm, it's seasoned Just right and very firm.
