Great job as usual, Lynn. Is it okay for me to
use your pattern to make one for my surgeon son in law?
Doug

[Lynn O. Doughty]

Sure, but dress him in hospital blue and put one of those round thingys on his forehead!!!

[Doug Ridley]

Might do that but around here it would be hospital green. Thanks

Another winner Lynn! Enjoying your blog too. At Wichita, Tom Brown spent quite a bit of time going over my work and offering what I consider some very valuable suggestions. One was the importance of a nice base for the work to sit upon. You do such a great job on the bases, my question is do you turn (lathe) some of them. Such as the Indian chief shown at Wichita. It was on a taller base. Otherwise, I know from the blog that you use the router.

Always look forward to seeing your work.

Ed. It's the base that makes the carving just as it's the frame that makes the picture. Yes, I turn some of the larger bases. Thanks for the comments
