How long does your typical carving project take? Mine often take weeks or months because I work on them and set them aside and pick them up later. I am claiming the record with the project pictured below. I whittled the puzzle pieces in
1950 when I found the plans in a book I received for Christmas. The original plans called for a box inside. I finally got around to making and carving the box in
2005! The box is dovetailed together (but not glued) and has chip-carved leaves on all six surfaces.
