Default Cut Fingers 1st Picture Postings

Hey Y'all,

I put 7 pictures of my carving on the Picture trail under Fun Stuff. Â*Since I didn't put my name in the title, they start with Mr Peanut & end with Home on the Egg top view. Â*Also, this was my 1st attempt at finishing.

Look at these and just imagine how much you have improved from your early days.

Jim Â*

Thanks for sharing. I agree that it is great that you have started off with several types of carvings. Progression will come easier and quicker. Keep on slugging.

Colin....I think that is only because you like to climb trees and you don't know what else to do when you get up there!

Hey Callynne,

Didn't think about that. I guess that sounded kinda gross & messy. I don't think there were many human cuts on those pieces.

However, I would suggest a human stop cut just prior to a human undercut.

Thanks to everyone for there kind words!

Jim
