 New To The Group Hi All, I'm new to the group and have been carving for several years, mainly woodspirits. I'm finally at an age where I can see retirement from my present career and plan to start in a new direction selling my carvings. I'm located on the east coast in NC. I've attached a pic of my latest log spirit, Jasper. Looking forward to exchanging ideas with everyone. Craig  |

| Re: New To The Group Thanks for the welcome Irishman and Feb. Actually, retirement is a ways off for me also, sometimes I just think it feels closer. |

| Re: New To The Group Craig, welcome to the forum and I am jealous of you. I am wanting to retire early and do full time carving but alas I continue to work bringing home a more reliable check! Again, welcome and I love the wood spirit. Is that hand carved or a chainsaw carving? Greg |

| Re: New To The Group Thanks for the welcome Greg. It's all carved with gouge and mallet due to the size. I use a chainsaw on larger pieces to rough out, then revert to hand tools. Craig |
