Aloha everyone !
I havent posted anything new in a long time, but have been lurking for a few weeks because my carving season is here. I started brushing off the cobwebs of my tools a couple weeks ago.
Here's what I have so far.....

1st - these 2 are from the same log, sumthin simple just to get choppin,
just sanded, no finish yet

This is a fresh and very wet log. I scored a bunch and wanted to see
how bad it would crack if I carved it. Still waiting for it to dry for sanding

Started this one on a dry log using 'economy of cuts'. Not sure I'm liken him
so I put him aside for awhile.

This is a small slit drum I hollowed out last year
just to see the sound it would make. It lingered in the yard all year, so
I decided to decorate and finish it (with my new V tool)
I'm in the process of making some sticks for it

Just started this one today. I have a 4' tongue tiki that my wife loves, but
a bunch of carpenter bees made it their home. Thought I'd make her a new one.

My 7yr old daughter wanted to try her hand with a chisel,
its a portrait of me. :o

Kino Thanks You
