Hi Joe,

Those are great horse head poses. The carving brings them to life. Very nice work.

Joe, in my opinion, the carving looks a lot better than the actual picture.

Joe looks like you have quite a challenge ahead. This carving is going to be a great sign. Is it going to be an outside or inside sign, curious to know how you'll seal it if its an outside one.

Thanks Joe, I been wanting to do some carvings for outside, and was wondering what would be a good way to seal them.

Nice Work !
I'm anxious to see how the front horse (on this side ) looks from the other side. Keep us posted.
