Once again, thanks everyone. It appears from the comments that I may be on the right track with how I did the tutorial. Glad I was able to help. There are many with a wealth of information on this site. I'm glad I was able to contribute and do my part.

Patrick, Excellent tutorial! Your steps and detailed descriptions for each, along with the vivid upclose photos have a very professional flair to them, and I am sure are appreciated by all. Looks like a real nice carving also, keep up the excellent work!
