Default 4 fathers of Confederation

Here's a carving I started a couple of weeks ago, a bigger job than I thought it would be. It’s 21 ft tall, I found the hard part was just climbing up and down the staging. Anyway four of the founding fathers of confederation live in a near by town called Amherst, actually Tupper was Prime Minister for a short time. It was a big job just staining it. The fellow in the 1st photo was a guy I hired to help me cut the top off, it was over 26ft tall to start with.

WOW!!! That is some tall work. I can't even think about doing something like that. I am still trying to learn how to carve something small in my hand. Keep up the great work.
