Smile Fouraker

I'm new at this typing and writing, But here goes, I started carving in 2000. Frist carving was a Indian 15 inch tall, this was done in a carving class at SDC, in Branson, MO. I have carve, a cardinal, santa clas, dogs, cowboys, etc.

My Girls are collectors of Santa, and Snowmen so at christmas time they expect a santa and snowmen or two.

Last Christmas I give away 8 Santa's & Snowmen that I had done in November and December.

Carving has been a good release on my nerves.

ABOUT MYSELF.. I'm 63, own a printing for 25 years, in which My Wife and I try to run.
Live in Missouri, A the present time I'm building a carving room just for my tool and carving that are not done and display that are done.

I just got a new digital camera, try to learn it and this is about too, much for a old man.

Trying to learn electronics is hard at any age!

Do you have any pictures of the Santas or snowmen? Carvers on this site love to see what people are carving.

Welcome!

But, just learning to do this is my first step.
Thanks for asking
