Default Another Eagle

8"x10"x7/8" Basswood. Saw this in Sue Walters Book of Wildlife Patterns.and had to do it. Starting my Shoulder Therapy next Thursday and maybe will get back to Carving, but for now Woodburning is satisfying and rewording. Got a Commission for 4 Walking Sticks so need to get the Shoulder fixed. As usual your comments are welcome. Merle

Nice job! Keep up the good work, even after you can carve again.
I burned that one too. The only problem I found with it was the placement of the nostril was wrong. And like you it wasn't until I was finished that it was discovered.

Nice, Merle! Hope your shoulder gets better quickly. They fixed both of mine up pretty good. Not 100% but LOTS better'n they were.

Hi Merle,

Great job on the eagle. Now I know what I'll be doing when my shoulders give out, which might be soon. Unlike you, there's no re-building. Get well soon.
