Wow Bob,

Great work for your first carving and with a 1/2 horse power knife too! You must have one hell of a carving glove. LOL

Keep up the good work Bob, you are well on the way.

Good work Bob! But what I want to know is what scroll saw blade did you use to get those noses like that? Ha! Ha!

Good job Bob! They're great first carvings! Gene's the man, he'll keep you right! ! He's like a whittling evangelist! Wonder how many people have picked up a knife and had a go after watching Gene!
