Default Carving a Santa Ornament

Well folks i've jumped on the youtube band wagon, Gene made a call out and i answered.
This is the first time i've ever used this kind of stuff so bare with me on this. This is a carving i found on Littleshavers.com and the pattern is at the beginning of every video so you can't miss it.
I tryed to make this as short as possible.

Enjoy the carving and have fun.

Thanks for posting that, Michael. I watched about half of the first one, and bookmarked it for later. I did one of those ornaments last year when I was first learning, and it was quite a stretch for me. It turned out okay, though.

I think I'd like to follow along with your video to see how well I can do it today.
