I’m traveling with my son and his wife, here to pickup their newly adopted son. I see woodcraft here by street vendors bur am not sure of the species. Most of my projects are small; I could probably Fedx no more than I’d buy. Then someday give my grandson a little gift made by me with wood from his homeland. -- Rick, Tennessee, John 3:16
