Extremely impressive work Roger!

Your work is very nice. I can’t imagine the numbers of hours you have put into your craft to get this good.

Spectacular, Roger!

Rog – this is exquisite.
The details are so FINE (in both sense of the word). Magnificent.

Very nice Roger, I think it’s more impressive as a wall hanging anyhow.

You sure have a great eye for design, & the carving skills along with it.

Wow. There is a lot of detail there. Are you going to finish it as a table after the show or are you hoping to sell it? Very nice piece of art.

Amazing detail. I look forward to viewing the finished piece.

-- My favorite piece is my last one, my best piece is my next one.

WOW, Beautifull!!!

Well done Roger, beautiful. I would hang it on the wall, it’s a piece of art. Would’nt get mared up that way either

Dang! You LJ’s are just too much; I can’t even get out of my studio my heads that big now. Thank you for all the nice comments. I must have done something right with this design.

At this point I will leave it as a wall hanging and try and sell it at the carving show. If anyone is interested in buying it let me know, its first come first served. Keep in mind I have two categories of carvings. My every day ones which are top quality and then I have the show pieces which are as close to perfection as I can get. This is a show piece.

I have probably around 36-40 carving hours and another 20-25 hours of designing and drawing it on the wood. I’m not the quickest when it comes to getting a design right. Thanks again everyone!

Roger Glad to see you around. I see you have been busy. Fantastic design and execution.

Beautiful as always!

Incredible design! You must have very sturdy hands (no caffeine rush) and incredible patience! I hope to try creating some furniture soon, but my technique will not be as intricate. Please keep us posted on your progress.

Very nice chip carving! A lot of work has gone into this piece. I’m sure you have sore fingers from pressing on the knife. Great work
