If you will get a bottle of Liquin Original by Windsor and Newton and mix it with your oil paints it will be dry in time for Christmas.

Thanks Doug.

I will give it a try since , they have an oil already I don't think the plastic would hold .

Heey ASH, You covering up that pretty wood? Geez!!!!

BTW, You can come to my house and my little bride will force you to paint the house. She's gave up on me.

Hey!! That's a really nice job!! Even though I carve mostly lifelike stuff I still really enjoy this kind of carving. I'm gonna have to try it someday!!! VERY NICE WORK!!!!

TAG, Your it!!! Your turn to chose a carver and a thread.

due to the lack of finishing my projects, i could use a little forcing to actually finish a heck of a lot of my carvings

Wow, gorgeous job! You have just been the preverbial last straw...I must try a Santa! I love them and I collect them and I buy them...why have I not carved them? Thanks for the push! Congratulations on a job well done!

[Ashbys]

Wow ,

Thomp you have a long memory . LOL

Thank you for the nice comments ,

Keoma , Santa's are fun because you can take then to so many different places , nothing is ever incorrect , makes them perfect to carve. Although I do have one that is almost wrong ... Pegleg Santa ..

Thanks again , now to look for something I don't normally read..... hummmm the life and times of J Edgar Hoover ......
