Hi Clarita! Thank's for the comp' and the support for the event!

Hi BigT, allergy season, damn... strongly summer! Can't wait your new work... Thank's for the comp' on the mask! In fact, it is my collaborative pieces for an other project... Other details soon.
For the mallet (mallot!?!) I use a brass mallet, very good sensation of weight, and a composite mallet lighter but very good for roughing. This one in the middle is made of ashtree, made by my father on his lathe, pretty but too light.

Well... New from the bench:

My wife's Hei Matau finally lashing with grenadill Hei Tiki:

Back view, the other hand...

In the sunset, just for the shade of wood...

An other guy in grenadill, first time I work with dremel in my carving for the Hei Matau and the shoulder tatoo.

Thank's for looking!
Have a nice day!

Jérôme.
