Really beautiful work. I live in Tucson, and Ironwood is REALLY hard. Even harder than Mesquite, which I tried to carve as my first try 'cause it was easy to get here. Quickly learned to put it aside and go with palm (you have to work at getting palm here in the old pueblo). You did a great job with it. Got a piece of milo from Maui, gonna try in a while.
