Incredible! I don't even know what to call a carving this small. To me, anything under 5 inches is miniature! Beautiful work.

I think a carving that small would or should be called "mini-micro or micro-mini carving". At least you shouldn't have a lot of dollars tied up in the cost of wood.

Not much wasted around here in the way of wood. My scraps are pretty small!

Bob,
What do they call your sawdust? Microsawdust? We ALL sure enjoy seeing your progress! I guess we'll have to get magnifiers if we want to see what you DON'T use! Keep up the beautiful work!

Sweet! That's one great little carving. I'd like to see the rest of the ship.
