Default New Twist to Golf Ball Cage

Being as I'm not to good at carvin faces, I thought I'd show my version of my golf ball cage. The little guy is 3 inches tall and the overall size is 7 1/2 inches. Dang, this is the first piece I ever sold, it was sold before I finished spraying the deft on it. WOW, the drinks are on me.

Really? I was talking to some Canadians a few years back about maybe coming up there to do some fishing, but they all assured me that there were no fish left in Canada.

Claude, we knew you Yanks were gulible, that's why we tell these stories, stay over there and catch yer old dang fish. I've seen Yanks pullin buckets full of Blue Gill out and cleanin them, heck, we Canadians use them for bait to catch the real fish. If yer ever up this way Claude, drop by and I'll give ya some lessons.

Windsong, look up Bill Russel on here (I think that's his name) he did a tutorial on how it's done.

Smile Re: New Twist to Golf Ball Cage

Cliff .. I was afraid this was going to happen .. you have passed the trying stage and your getting into full time addiction ...

Now you have sold a piece and the addiction is getting worse .. you are only a few strans from being hooked for life on carving ..

It starts off slow ..then gradually pulls you into full time ..

It happens so quickly .. no one can stop it ..

But isnt it fun ?

Great job Cliff on your first sale .. you did good ..

Gene
