What a terrific work! I didn't notice the name on it at first but immediately recognized it as Rahab helping the Hebrews! Bravo!

Yes I will send you a note. And so glad you chose to go to the mahogany. These will be great.

I don't even know where to start commenting on your endeavors. Just contemplating a project of that scope has to be totally daunting and only accomplished through an act of faith. One segment would be amazing, but the whole series just leaves me speechless!

WOW!

Thanks for all of the great comments and support. Everytime I finish something, even a model, I sit back and wonder who did that? I know I have elves coming in the middle of the night doing all the work

It dawned on me today that not everyone knows where the final installation will be so I have included this picture so all can get an idea how big the project is.

That is one lucky church and one smart group of decons , for allowing you to put such a wonderful set of works into there.
Are all the works going to be placed on the one wall?
Or will they be on both walls and the upper crossway ?

The carvings will all be on the one wall. Below is the original drawing to approximate scale of the installation. The Rahab model in the earlier posting is hanging where the finished carving will hang. We have thought about doing something to tie the seven pieces together better. If anyone one has any suggestions I am open
