 Project for Fireman Instructors Hi I just completed these for some students that took firefighting classes from the local technical college. First time that I tried to do shallow lettering on a curved surface. Carving is done out of basswood. I did the Bennett first. The boys gave me the wrong spelling for the name so I had too carve out the name bennet and insert a new piece of wood that I carved the name Bennett in..... Ugh! Took a simple project and made it difficult. If I had to do it over I would just do another carving. The McLean carving was the second carving that I did. I like it alot better than the bennett carving. I supose that the next one would be even better. Comments welcome! Greg Last edited by GeorgiaCarver : 05-17-2007 at 08:09 PM.  |

 Re: Project for Fireman Instructors Greg .. What great looking projects for our finest ... I bet those guys were really appreciative of your work .. Your lettering is very good and I really like the way you layed out the detail .. sort of like a shoulder patch or badge ... Really great work Greg .. Thanks for sharing Gene |

| Re: Project for Fireman Instructors Greg, these are great! I would have never thought of carving helmet shields. And I was around them for a long time, too! Fantastic idea! |
