Thanks JabTiki, I Agree 100 Percent!
Well I Messed around and finally finished this Maori guy. He is carved from "Chocolate" Curly Maple which can can take very fine detail He has 1 coat of hand rubbed Poly installed and will get a few more coats. He has fake Pearl eyes, He is 1 3/8" tall, 3/4" wide at the tips of the ears, and 5/8" deep at the nose. He is Well traveled around the floor of my shop and is Very familiar with the space under my desk. He's a bit cock-eyed and goofy looking in some ways, but he''s mean, lean and All business. He will have a brown cord and same wood toggle I'll get better shots when the finish is complete.
Enjoy!
