I finished my first relief piece, not all that big but it's a relief carving. Thor told me a coin is a good example. Thats when I decided to do a wooden nickel, Skip “It is impossible for a man to learn what he thinks he already knows.”

That is actually pretty cool. I've always wanted to see a wooden nickel and now I have.

Very good job! Your relief work is quite clear, and you accomplished it without layers or deep carving from what I can tell. Excellent work. Then, you threw in some lettering, and that worked well too. Carving a coin, good idea. What are the dimensions? Thor |

Thankyou: The nickel is 4" Dia. I'm pretty sure that carving one actual size would be pretty tough. Skip

That is very cool. What a clever, creative idea and excellent execution. I don't know how to tell you this, but I'm afraid you have the makings of an artist. ;-) RussL |
