Default Fox Chapel i love ya but ya goofed

Thanks to Gene Messer i've developed a love for the Refsal style and decided to get my hands on some info from the source. So i bought "Scandinavian style woodcarving by Harley Refsal" and loved it but i found a boo boo in the instructions.
On page 64, the figure carving calles for a block at least 6 1/2" x 6 1/2" x 2", now that is one SHORT figure. It took me a few minutes to figure this one out. I mean i'm not a woodworking specialist but this seem wrong to me. TYPO!

Oh well i still love the book and it's a great source of info for me, well this and Gene's videos. Hopefully i can now find the time to get some carving done.

Michael Gray
