Default Two more axes
Here are a couple more axes. My wife, Carol, is getting interested in wood carving so I thought this would be a good project for her to do to peak her interest. She made the blue one and I made the red one. We really appreciate Gene's help. keep up the tutorials, we really enjoy them. I'm just getting back into carving after a 20 year lapse. We'll post some of our other projects soon.

Good job. It must be nice to have your wife interested in carving with you. Mine is supportive, but she just isn't into it as much as I am. Have fun together.

I've seen references to a tutorial these are based on, but I cannot find it. Could somebody provide a link?

The link on this tutorial is in this section on Beginners. Look for, A Simple Afternoon Project for Beginners. Also look for more of Gene's tutorials in thes section. He also has some videos that you can view online.

Nice job Bob, It looks like your wife has the talent allready. Just don't show her all of your tricks of the trade, You don't want her passing you up.
