BTC Billy the Crud Member San Diego Joined: Jun 02, 2007 Posts: 996	BTC Billy the Crud Posted posted on Tue, Apr 20, 2010 8:50 AM Im still thinking about carving "Nugget" into the back of it. There are two "peanut" style mugs that I know of (someone correct me if Im wrong) and my next carve is going to be a stack of the two. Im going to try and be a little closer next time as well. The face is misproportioned, the belly is cut in too far, and I only managed to fit three fingers on it. I wanted to shy away from my power tools as much as possible so I could re-acquaint myself with chisel work. Using chisels is therapy......power tools can become a big messy job and I can't really deal with the noise right now. Once again, 4WD. Thanks for the push.
