Default 2 Heads
Here are 2 heads that I have just finished, the first 1 is my brother-in-law's house warming gift, it's 6 months late because I was stuck on the eyes for weeks and finally went for pound signs £. Hope you like it.

The second is a log thats had a pot on top of it for a few years, after head number 1 I wanted something I could finish quick and I did this in 3 hours. No hand tools just an arbtec mini.

Hi Joe, both head's are pine but the first one is made from a beam that was left outside - lying on the ground - for about 2 years before i got it. It's not the best bit of wood but i have to use what i have.

Great gift, I'm sure it will be appreciated.
Is the other one going to continue holding a pot on his head? I like that idea.
