Seeing you've been in the Marquesan mood yourself lately, you'll probably like the latest little fella. Bullet, mahalo to you too bro - thanks for supporting my work and being the first TC member to pick up a Paipo original! And I suppose you "Just Happen to Have" something to add this little feller to? sure do...#9 all done: Yeah, "Jade School"! Sounds pretty cool eh? It was a lot of fun, not so much for the curriculum, but just to hang out with like minds and find some of the answers we were seeking, as well as having access to tools and stone for the first time. I also had a year off between my 1st and 2nd year studies, working in a "real" lapidary shop in the North Island, where my boss encouraged me to meet as many other carvers as I could.
