I don't have any questions but I wanted to say how much your work has inspired me, Ian. I love whimsey and so much of your work is over flowing with it. You have pushed me to a higher standard and I thank you. I look at my copies of your books often when I need more inspiration.

Ian, I just got two of your DVD's. Thank you for making your knowledge available to those of us who cannot often get to carving classes. Your instruction is easy to follow and I am learning a lot.

Hi there
Many years ago I did sometimes use teak oil on carvings but I stopped because dust tended to stick to it in the corners. I now use polyurethane varnish - you will find my video of this process on U-Tube @ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7GAV8..._order&list=UL. Best wishes, Ian
