I went over earlier today and asked the arborist if I could have a 6 foot chunk about 18" in diameter. He told me "no problem, bring your truck over and we'll lower it right into the back". I know Cottonwood isn't the best carving medium but I'm addicted and need to carve something else baaaaad. Should make a good practice log. Here's another photo back when the above Tiki was a still a stump and I'd just penciled in his features. You can see it just to the left of the backhoe bucket. [ Edited by: LowKat 2012-11-26 22:37 ]
