Some of you know me and some of you don't. I'm a meadiocre carver that carves mostly walking sticks and some birds. My hero, or is that heroin, is Nancy Goff. I hope to be as good as her some day and have as many tools as she does. I live in Huntsville, AL (north Alabama). I have been reading here for a few day but haven't been able to add much. There are some really knowledgable carvers here. Maybe I'll ask a few questions.
Well, happy holidays to all of you. I'll be around. I miss the old Shaddy Rest.

I have been doing mostly canes and sticks and some wood spirits on some of the sticks. This is a great place and some great carvers, unfortunately i am not that good but enjoy carving anyway. |

| | Re: New to site Everybody should have something they do because they enjoy it, not because they're good at it. Woodcarving is that thing for me!
