Looks good Dick! Some pines are rather hard to carve, was this one of the hard ones?

Really nice work Dick. Home Depot call it Swedish Pine so they could charge more? I haven’t seen it at ours here in Southern Indiana.

Thanks to all of you.
I’m not sure if it’s Pine, it could be Spruce but each board had a imported from Sweden tag stuck on the ends. HD didn’t have any special advertisement for it. It reminded me of lodgepole Pine from out West. I bought a bunch of 1×6’s fairly reasonable.
I carved real nice though.

You and Carver Rog are part of my inspiration.

Great stuff as usual Dick.

Dick;

Fine work. sometimes small projects are fun, as they don’t take forever to finish.
One of the things I like about turning.

In no time at all, you can have something beautiful.

Very nice job, Dick. So we know where the Cain goes, but where do you put the mail?
