How would you like to tackle a carving block like this. That is one big log I would give anything to try a woodspirit in that baby.

WOW.....that's a lifetime's worth of wood sitting there to a ship modeller! Smile But me thinks it might be a mite difficult for me to handle, although.....where there's a will, there's a way!

Think of how many canes are hiding in there!
