Default Pencil Lead Chain With A surprise On The End

Been thinking about carving this for a while but wasn't sure if it would work so today I just went for it and to my surprise not only did it work it looked pretty darn good [ I normaly dont like my own work that much, always think i could have done it better] Would like to know what you guys and girls think of it

I think it looks ok. Maybe even kind of incredible. Perhaps even sort of unbelievable. You know...like...impossible.

That sure is an interesting piece of carving! You have a unique talent, and I hope to see it channelled into something spectacular one day soon. Well done.

Bob

Hello? Guiness Book of Records? I'm working on something here that I think you need to know about..... Same for Ripley's believe it or not.

You really need to contact the local news or newspaper or somebody, and share this wonderful talent with the world!
