This is the only in-progress photo I had and I can't seem to fix the size of it.
The whole Idea was insane. It was from a an M.C. Esher-like dream after some chinese food and chocolate gellato.
(By the way,when in Hawaii, make sure you stop by the Gellateria on Cedar street. It's what dreams are made of.) The carving was on very hard wood (don't know what) and I used everything from hand chisels, to power chisels, my grinder, and about 1000 dremel bits.
The guys at the Windward Community college woodshop told me I was nuts to start it. I was nuts to finish it.
Shane & Brandon at the outreach college are great instructors over there, by the way.
