        Many thanks for your comments re. how you learned to carve. I enjoyed 
reading it and it was most enlightening. I always like to know about folks 
from whom I have bought things, etc. Makes it seem more personal somehow.
           And now a question or two if I may. Do you do all of the patterns 
for sale on your site? There are so many, I wouldn't think it possible for 
even one or two people to have done them all. If not all, how do you find them? 
No, I am not asking for specific sources so I can order from there and beat you 
out of your business. Your exact sources are your business, but I am just 
curious about how you gathered all of these. 
           With running your business, how do you find time to carve now? I'm 
retired and have a part-time furniture repair business and do some custom 
woodturning and seem to find time for that and my carving tends to take a bit of 
a back seat to that, other than when I must carve something on a piece of 
furniture, etc.
           My biggest weakness is painting what I carve. I must have a dozen 
pieces in my shop that are finished, but not painted.
            Again, my thanks for taking the time to relate your carving 
experience.
            My best,
            Tom
