You might have carved him quick, but he looks a little slow to me (lol). I like him & I wish I could carve a little quicker.

He looks real good! By the smile on his face and his posture, he seems to be enjoying himself. Using the cord to hold his bag is a nice touch. Thanks for sharing

Gene,

I'm glad that you had a chance to do some carving for yourself. I know that you are often busy helping others or commenting on others carvings here on the forum. It is always a pleasure to see your carvings and this hobo is no different. Thanks so much for sharing

Safe Carving and God Bless,

Mark
