1/4 original size? Wow. Mine's sitting on the end of a wooden dowel on my desk. One week since I carved it, and it's getting pretty shriveled. 10-12 weeks, huh? Good thing I'm patient.

Ahhhh ten to twelve weeks??? Gee mine didn't take near that long, but then I had mine in doors, down in the air conditioned basement work shop. Maybe that's the differance.
As I recall, mine took about three weeks.
