Evolution of Man Scrollwork

Hey Bob, that is a super fine job. I can not imagine the cutting involved. You are the man with this stuff (pun intended).

BTW I am the guy in the middle,

Thanks Steve! I usually am described as either the 2nd or 3rd one in from the left! ;-)

Amazing work.

Richard,

I hope none of us reading this are Apes – we DO, however, share a common ancestor. THAT is what Darwin very eloquently shows us in this work.

I certainly do not claim an Ape in my family tree either – but, both myself, yourself and the Ape have the same ancestor. That is a stone cold fact, proven time and time again.

Hope that makes better sense to you.

Nice work…LOL at the rest.

I think this is my favorite of yours so far Bob. And it isn’t easy choosing. Masterful work.

This is wonderful. All we humans are, in fact, apes. I, for one, am quite content to be in such esteemed evolutionary company, and I am grateful to the marvelous minds before me which pieced together the particulars of how our direct lineage differentiated from our most recent common ancestor with the other apes.

Thank you, KnotCurser.

whoa, nice!

Awesome!!!!!!! Scrolling is something that tries my nerves everytime!

Ken,

I thought scrolling would frazzle my nerves as well, but I found just the opposite.

I tend to put on some music in the shop, start up the scroll saw and go into a kind of zen-like place and am able to think and plan things while I’m cutting. It’s very calming actually.

I don’t know if I would want to do this eight hours or so per day….........

I wonder if our friend “Scrollgirl” Sheila has any input on this???

excellent scroll work.

Though I would mention that Darwin also recanted the entire theory of evolution on his deathbed. ;)
