I just may have to check that CD out on my next visit to Nawger Knob! Pete has sent me two of his JPEG files showing how to carve his faces and I've attended at least three of his mini-seminars at shows that I've been at but somehow the left and the right side of the brain just can't seem to get together and transmit the correct information to the fingers!

Nice, I'm glad to see that Pete is putting some instructional information out there. I have yet to take one of his classes, but hoping to in the future. Thanks for sharing the link Mark. I'm glad to see that Mac has that out there!
