G'day everyone,

Would like to say hello from Australia. I joined a while back and have been side tracked reading all the great and interesting posts on this board.

You have a ton of information here.

Best regards to all, and I will continue reading.

Hi,

Thanks for the welcome.
I am a lurker,I like to look and read your comments and absorb your knowledge. My comments will be few.

I like to carve the human face, but I have not achieved the ability to carve a likeness of someone. I try, but it never happens.

Below is a sample of my work.

Regards,
Schaf
