Thanks all!

The big chisels should be a big help to me in several places that are a down right pain in the a$$ with my other toolz. I also want to use them in some other places to give me a little more freedom. My Teko has been on a bit of a Holiday, hanging out in one of my big freezers with about 100 stinky shark tissue specimens. I took him out of the freezer a day ago and unwrapped him last night, so I should be able to take a few chops at his legs here in the next few days. He looks good with no additional checking. I was a bit concerned about major cracking due to the freezing as this log is only seasoned a year or so. All is well and I should be able to pick up where I left off and move forward quickly now.

I have a few choices to make and a few decisions a head of me regarding his feet/moko/finish, but I'm enjoying thinking about my options. It's good to have options!

Next carving update = soon!
