 First 'Completed' Project Well, be that as it is, here is my first actually completed project. I call it "Two Lumpy Balls, or Possibly Eggs, in a Cage'. I kept trying to round and smooth the balls and finally got to a point where I was concerned about having an empty cage!! Oh well, first project is done, nowhere else to go but up from here!

| Re: First 'Completed' Project Tucson! You tackled the ball and cage as your first carving ... I AM impressed! Can't wait to see what you do next. Anyway and anytime the ball stays in the cage it's a successful carving! Susan

| Re: First 'Completed' Project Really nice for a first project! I've been wanting to give that a try, but other projects get in the way. Chuck
