I also saw your carvings in Chip Chat as well as Sean's, Lynn's and Mark's. Amazing that seeing yours and also their work in the mag, That I recognize them before reading the captions. Excellent works.

Hi Mark, I just got my Chip Chats and saw your wonderful work in there and beamed hey I know that guy! Congratulations
Sean Poynter who has the 'Cow' at the bottom of page 24 is a student member of the wood carving group I belong to. Prescott Wood Bee Carvers. Sean is a really nice young man and has a real talent for carving.
Congratulations to all who have their carvings in this issue. What an honor!
