I wanted to show my on the road setup I spend more time in my RV than I do on my beloved Gulf Coast. I use my sculptors stand with positioner and tool bench both I have had for many years.

Hey Don,
Nice setup! I do think you need a few more power tools! Just kidding and a little envious. I'm sure your buddy will be happy with the werewolf.

Will keep an eye on how it turns out Don. I did a large werewolf in a birch log a number of years ago...something my daughter wanted me to try. Check out my site if you need a reference. Good luck.

Great start there on the carving, Don. You do look very organinzed as a traveling carver. I guess the benefit is that you don't have to worry about chips building up where you carve.
