Thanks Robin, There IS Magic there and if it's not from the Ancients, then I don't know where it's from. I Certainly AM enjoying it. I See this beautiful piece of work and I Know I Didn't do it but I was there watching me do it, so I'll suht up now. Thanks Robin.

JohnnyP, Butt face Butt Face Butt Face :lol: :lol: :lol:

Slax, Thanx, I Appreciate that!

LLT, How can you accuse ANYONE else of being Heroic in their dedication and talk about Small Minute work, You have that bag cornered. NO One can get the detail that you can in Every square Millimeter of canvas.
Thanks Little lost guy!!

McTiki I'm trying my best to be respectable to this wood. It was Gifted to be by a dear friend who holds it in high regard and I must do My Utmost best to make this piece of wood Sparkle. Thanks.

Heath, Actually I DID pay attention and learned my lessons wel at both Coon Tikis and the Oki-Oki too. This piece has taken All the experience all lumped together. It has been very difficult. Doing one side was fairly easy but matching the other side has really been a Bear and very uncooperative. I knew the wood was hard but was not ready for the grain changes to Everywhere on this piece. I have a bag of chips that look like I was whittling on a box of toothpicks. Little tiny chips for hours.
Thanks Heath

Greentikipat, Thanks for the kind and Understanding words. That "Balance" does not come eazy.:)

Thanks Raffer. I Think I have figured a way. It involves you coming down here and learning how to use my tools and and how to answer to "Benzart" When you geta few done I'll sign'em and Sell'em. How does that sound?

I did a bit of work on the right side of the Butt Face today, here it is.
