Not bad, I've always tried to avoid end grain relief pieces, looks like a diagonal slab might be a little less of a challenge.

Hi Eric,

That's a very nice carving and what makes me appreciate it more is you did it on the end grain. Not easy.

It was tough with the end grain. It was all I had available to try my first on. Thanks for the kind words.
