So here's my progress report.
Even bought myself a REAL chisel, its slower than my power tools but I
am impressed with what I can do.
I hope Santa brings me a whole set !!

getting going on the face was easy cuz I have done those before

Roughing out the body was a bit slow. I didnt want to mess anything up.
The legs really through me off and I had to stare at them alot. lol
Once I dug into the legs, I thought 'OH NO, I screwed up the feet'

Then I knew I had to go buy something....
Came home with a Flex-cut, one size fits all.

Prest-o ! Change-o !
Feet that Barney Rubble would be proud of.

There's a couple things I could have done better during the rough cut,
but I'm still learning. Those mistakes are forcing me to create 'fine-tuning-fixes'.
This guy is my learning curve and I bit off quite a lot.
I sure wish I could make it to SD for a chop, it sounds like there is a wealth of
knowledge and help at those. Until them I'm stuck at the school of hard knocks (and chips).
Thanks for looking.
