Well talk about "making my day." The Conga thread is rescued from page two
by none other than Basement Kahuna! Nice to see you around here again BK,
I really appreciate your comments. I like this style of figure so much
that when spring finally hits up here I am gonna make a BIG one.

And thanks to you Big Daddy. I think I did some of my best detail carving
on this one, so your comment means a lot.

Winter has been a real bitch up here, so I haven't been able to do any
big stuff, and I haven't had a chance to work much with my new carving
disc. I did purchase a speed control for my grinder, as suggested by
Mr. Benzart. This makes all the difference in the world and will make
the dangerous bugger somewhat more manageable. Anyone else using a
carving disc or grinder should get a speed control, they are pretty
inexpensive.

I do have a couple of things in the works, and one of them is pretty odd.
Oh shit, they're both pretty odd. Pictures soon.
