| Re: I would like to show you a rarity Whatever you decide to do with it, my suggestion would be to take a lesson from the cottonwood bark carvers. Leave the bent portions natural so that the flow of the wood is not lost in the carving process. If this is carved away, then the figure could have been carved from a large piece of typical growth wood.
