Default My "sit down" carving
I was inspired by Gene's "sit down" caving concept, so I gave it a shot. Just took a block of wood and starting caving away without any planning. The little guy is 2" tall.

Ken,
He would have looked good on a mini friendship cane. Very nice job, and keep up the good work. Working with this size of carving, you don't have many scraps left.

Thanks, my wife liked this guy as well. You're welcome to copy away, it's a lot of fun to carve.
