Mark,you did an outstanding job on your project,I also use Jetutony and just imagined
the patience you must have to carve such small projects. Did you a power tool or just
edge tools? Thanks for sharing this great looking pair of green woodpeckers.

Mark your presentation is as good as your cravings which is stunning.
1 question the "tree trunks" the birds are on, are they drift wood or have you carved them too?
