Default I`m as nervous as a long tail cat in a room full of rocking chairs...
Well kind of, I have my first show coming up this weekend and although it is only a club show I feel like I don`t have enough to show. Here are a few pic`s of the display that I made out of some old barn siding and a few of my carvings, the last pic is a spirit I just finished. Any thoughts or comment as to what I should or should`nt expect. The wife say`s I have been kinda grumpy trying to get a few last minute carvings done before Friday...Thanks in advance...Bruce

I think your fine I really like that dear carving. Do you have to have a whole tabe or can you share a table with another. That's what we do a our club. We also set up a table for new carvers that only have a few carvings. It's all fun, enjoy

MA, burning and carving is not the same as playing with matches and knives.

Good luck with the show. Fine looking carvings you have displayed there. Lots of variety...you have talent in a number of carving styles. I like the them all...can't pick out just one to take home if I was at the show.

Bruce, it would be an honor to share a table with you, but, I would be embarassed with my work in comparisson to yours, they are all excellent pieces, I really like the deer and the dog plate as my favorites but hey, they are all well done.

Bruce,
A really fine display. Especially like the dog and the presentation of the deer.
You can be proud. Wish you well with the competition!
