Default My week end efforts
We got to spend the weekend at the camper...doing my two favorite activities....sitting in my chair and making faces (well there is the rum drinking activity). Hope y'all enjoy them and comments are always appreciated.

Were these done before or after the rum. If after, keep up the rum-they are great looking.

Sounds like my kind of weekend!
They look great. I especially like the smile on the left one. Thanks for sharing

Nice job on both. Way to go - both on the carving, and the venue.

Bob,
These blanks are triangle blocks 2.5 inches wide across the back and 3.5 inches long. I usually dint go this wide but I wanted some extra meat for a more rounded face. They are fun to do....but once you start be prepaired to do a gazillion of them !
