I retired about eight years ago from Phoenix AZ to Costa Rica
We have some great wood down here. I bought this hollow log a couple months ago to do some wood art. It was nine feet long and three and one half across. Not sure witch direction I will go with it. Most of this is new to me. I have done a few things with power tools but not much by hand. I live here with my wife and our fifteen year old daughter and Ava my dog who has the run of our place. Come and see us some time.

Hello Occie,

Let me welcome to LJs. I am sure that you will find being a member of this group to be both a rewarding and an inspirational part of your woodworking adventure.

-- With God's help all things are possible- even woodworking. Woodworking is not just a hobby, it is an (expletive deleted) expensive hobby.

Welcome to Lumberjocks. The projects are an inspiration, the information is priceless and the people are supportive. The only problem is, the site can get addictive.

God Bless

Hi Occie, I used my Dewalt788 scrollsaw to cut the pic you saw in my picture section. It took about 3 hours to cut all of the lines to make the faces. After cutting the portrait I backed the picture with more wood painted black. Thanks for stopping by!!!!!!
