I try to stay focused with WCI and only promote it .. but this guy.. you to got to see ..While going through you -tube .. I found this guy named Barry and if you cant love this guy 's whittling .... you need to get real ..

What a wonderful piece of history in our old timers who were plain and simple .. and this guy says he's not talented .. so humble !

Enjoy

Gene, this guy is just a good 'ol boy. The kind that , if I complimented him would say "aww shucks, ma'am". Very talented and humble. Thanks for sharing this with us.

Loved his statement that "If you're in a hurry, don't do this." Thanks, Gene, for pointing the way to Berry.

One thing for sure, whittler or carver, the knife's got to be SHARP! Barry pointed this out vividly. Thanks Gene for the heads up.

Dog gone it! Why is it that I can watch those stupid music videos on You Tube but when there something really good to see my computer slows up so much that it takes too long to download anything?
