Default Gothic Ornament

I have a new tutorial started. This one started as another Celtic design but the way I'm carving the profile makes it look more like a small gothic element. Here's part 1.

I like this! I'm putting together some "simple" projects for the grandkids (17 & 15) when they visit this Christmas. I will add this to the bag for them to try (after I try it...) I've now subscribed to your videos (thought I already had, but not) so I'll get word when the rest is posted. Thanks!

That looks like a fun project. Did you carve out the waste in the center of the arches or did you use the jig saw to cut it away?

Don,
Looks like a really neat little project. I have been putting together some ideas for projects to keep the variety while carving, and this one has made it to the list.
