Default Poor Pictures, Fun Carving
I was working in my shop and had the crazy idea that you might enjoy seeing my light pull. If you carve one, make his eyes open wide like he is worried, an give him a frown to show he isn't very happy hanging there.

Sorry the pictures are not very good. Yes, his pants are falling down; you can't tell by the picture, but he is pretty hairy.

Very cool.
Is that a "crack" in the back I see? The next one needs a tool belt!
Great idea!

Well Rick, you can't be good at everything.....



Maybe that's why you don't get many requests for photography work!

Kenny, that is borderline Kinky.

The first time I saw a light pull was in 1995 in an outhouse in North Carolina.
I believe on that one, the poor carving was hanging like Tom Dooley.
