 First Post Hi, I've been a member for some time but this is my first post. I have been carving off and on since I was a kid (about 30 years ago). I mostly give my carvings to friends and family. I do not have any set style or type that I like the most. It's mostly whatever strikes my interest at the time. A lot of you will recognize some of the patterns I have used. Here is a link for a few of my carvings. Take a look and let me know what you think. Jerry http://www.picturetrail.com/jwdukes  |

| Re: First Post Nice work Jerry I too like the dragon, very detailed. What kind of wood was it? Bass wood? if so what finish did you use. Colin

| Re: First Post Thank you all for the kind remarks. The dragon is butternut mounted on a walnut base and finished with tung oil. All of the curves on it were a bit of a challenge. I had to modify a few tools to get into some places. It's the first of a matched pair I am making. |
