Default :Dragon Bracelet:

Ive had this bracelet started and between other carvings I work on it some and finally finished it over this past wk end.

I have several large chunks of old found black cherry wood,its been drying 5 yrs in my out doors wood bid. Id cut off a smaller area which I started this bracelet out of. Carving items like this I hope others learn more what you can carve also.My ideas are easy,if its wood you can carve anything you like!

Just something to try and I still have to put the final finish on it plus will repeat that a few times.

As always your thoughts or comments are more than welcome.

Guess my wife would "love" seeing me carve a horse collar buttttttttttttttttt Im not that dumb!!------------yet. In off here to drag on to something else.

Ole Tn.

Dan my good friend Im feeling ok,hold on!! Yea I just cked everything is in place. Only problem is my BP is still high. Im not going all out right now just doing what I want or feel like. Better known as carving is about all. This bracelet was just something I wanted to try and now Im moving on to something else,well does putting on a crock pot of beans w/pole-ish sauge plus corn pon count for supper plus I might make a nana-pudding.

Thanks my friend for ckn out this bracelet and ck'n on me.

A southern boy at heart but eating thoses bean the more you?? Yeap!! Every time!! Sounds like another carving to me. What have you been working on yourself??

Thanks again,Forrest

I LOVE that bracelet, Forrest.....beautiful grain and nice detail in that dragon, but that had to be brutally hard to carve in that black cherry! When Connie doesn't want it anymore, you just KNOW where you can send it...LOL First the ring....now the bracelet.....is this a new trend for my friend???? Bonnie

Very nice! Forrest, you are always exploring new things and they always come out great! I agree that it has that ancient artifact look, like something you would find in a little corner of a natural history museum somewhere. Tres cool!

Hi Forrest,

I’m a big fan of your work, and this bracelet shows your very diverse talent.

I’m glad you’re feeling OK, take care of that blood pressure.

Maybe the beans will help. I remember that old rhyme from when I was a kid;

Beans Beans there good for your heart, the more you eat ………the better it is for your heart .

Frank D
