Default Wedding plate

It's been awhile but I just finished a wedding plate. As the norm after I was finished I saw something I would have changed but that is ok because the love birds liked it.

That's an impressive piece of carving. Everything on the plate looks so smooth, and your cuts very precise. I imagine it took you a few hours to carve that design out.

Great job, Roger. Ya know it looks just like a Wedding Plate. The Plate really looks perfect except if you could change the name to Angela and Kelly and the date to July 10th, 2008, I could probably find a use for it ;O)). Might be able to sell it to help pay for the wedding . Again, Great work.

That is one really nice carving, I especially like the lettering .... I know carving it took some time it's so precise.

Thank you everyone for such nice comments.

I had about 6 hours carving it but I had 8 hours coming up with the design and laying it out.
