Hi gang,
Well I am either really in the Christmas mood or I have become addicted to carving Santa's. Every one I carve I learn a little more and when the severe Canadian winters come around it is nice to have something that I can carve where it is nice and warm. This Santa was modified from a Tim Berry blank I want to thank Tim for supplying me with the blank. Who knows I have asked for a band saw for Christmas next year I may be designing and cutting out my own. Just thought I would share him with you I started him yesterday morning and finished him up last night. Of course as usual any comments are always welcome I learn so much from you guys.

Colin...great job on the Santa!

I don't think you'll know if you are addicted to Santa carving until around June or July...if you are still thinking about them by then, well, I think you can say you're hooked
