Default scrap

I recently had trouble getting wood. I raided the scrap box and felt that I could get enough to put a carving to gether, it worked. I recently completed another bitsa carving. I know some carvers do carve limbs and heads separate form the torso, so its nothing new.

All I'm saying is give it a try, it certainly drew my attention to the waste wood I'd previously dumped. Thats stopped.
Mind being a mean Scot its added bonus is its economical
