Dang Conga...look at all that snow. It takes a true carver to get out and work in that stuff. The work is killa! Keep kickin' out doses of that Conga magic. Your work is major brain food my friend. :) |

Conga... as usual another unusual piece from my Northwoods carving brother! Great finish on this one... love the look! We are done with our latest 6 inch snow storm and are in the process of sending you the next one. I'm pretty sure that Winter Storm Watches are in effect for your part of the state and you will enjoy a Friday afternoon of shuffling cars around and moving snow. 74.5 inches and counting here... carving outside is a faint memory for me and Spring seems very, very far away. Looking forward to the next piece... |

Another amazing artist on TC. I just spend a better part of an hour (don't tell the boss) browsing through and getting a feel for your work and I'm quite impressed. Your tiki's are top notch and I'm really diggin' the offbeat pieces you've done of the winter. I'm no expert, but I know what I like and I'm keeping an eye on this for sure. Great work. |

Conga, SOON, the snow will melt and you will be outside carving. Hell, in a few months you will be worrying if the ice in your drink will last long enough..... Keep doing what you are doing and before you know it you will have a few more beautiful carvings, some new skills and perspectives, and spring will be here. If you are totally freaking out, grab a cheapo plane ticket and come sit by the pool with me for a few days - open invite. Nice stuff Boss, G |

Yeah Right! Ha Ha The Oak NZ piece looks pretty good. You should make another one of those spy guys and stain it ebony. Not every body has their own agency. |

The headhunter turned out great. Looks even more dangerous now with the accessory you added. If you are looking fpor a hat, why donĀ“t try a little wood turnery to build something like this: How do you come along with your piece of oak? |
