Thank you Lynn this is very much appreciated ,I always try to explain to my husband what to use, I send him your link and I hope to get better pictures done:-)
I also enjoy your special type of humor (off Topic) we all need something to make us feel light hearted.

Lynn: This is exactly what I needed. I will now start putting together a similar system here. The whole carving community is indebted to your caring and sharing nature. Undoubtedly, this will improve the photos of many of us.
Thanks Again.

Thanks Lynn for sharing your successful method. I think this is one area many of us neglect, putting our work in a setting that highlights our efforts.
