I'm starting to really fall in love with freshly cut cypress... between the grain lines, the way it stains,the longevity, and the fact that it's very "florida", I'm kinda smitten...

dude you were SO RIGHT about the difference between carving it wet & carving it dry... like 2 completely different kinds of wood!!!

I'm kinda moving toward doing most of my stuff in cypress..

and it's funny how high end "money people" perk up and pay attention when you talk about doing stuff in cypress....

but yeah, palm is fun... :)
