Wow, great pieces all around! I apparently took a time out from TC- busy with work, then tested positive for Covid (caught catering a huge convention) then my wife kicked me out to quarantine away from her and the kids so I had a mini vacation at the Motel 6 (was completely asymptomatic, which was a plus). In retrospect I should have brought a router, I had a ton of time on my hands....

Anyway, back to TC and I'm floored by the finished projects all around! I picked up some lumber today and got to work. Progress pics (not glamour shots) below. I will add stain or paint then finishing spray. Since I have some time left I might work on a separate mask piece also from the OA catalog.

Jon, love your carve, Mad Dog, as always, incredible- Wendy, oh my! David, killer, absolutely love it. Mauka, so cool. Joshua, amazing.

Can't wait to see who else jumps in! I think Ernie might???? Cheers, all!

First drew on some lumber.... IMG_4750

Then started using the router- and forgot a progress pic.... IMG_4751

Finished routering (without final detailing), and jigsawed the piece out... IMG_4752

Then torched it (my favorite part).
