ljb!! welcome to tc!! im w big t. tall one is a bit far but looks good nun the less and the seacond short one is very cool!! good clean cuts even on the curvy stuff nice design i even like the descison to leave the bark!! and i def feel it would benifit from sum contrast!! and ur right burning the cuts w a plumming torch works great! and dont worry if it wont all burn. u can go back w thined flat black enamel paint or dark ebony stain either applied w a small brush if you want! then carefully apply some spar urethane for outside use or regular polyurethane for covered or indoor use!! and he will take on a whole new look!!!! good luck and stop by my thread and drop a line or ques anytime!! cheerz!!!
