Thanks Ralph for asking about the owl and thanks David for your reply. I 
copied the pattern and took it along with some blanks to our carving meeting 
tonight. We had one brand new carver and another just beginning carver and 
both finished their owls before going home. It took them about an hour and 
fifteen minutes to complete. It was great because then the new carvers learn 
about stop cuts and cutting with and against the grain and they also learn 
about end grain and still have something finished to take home. I gave them 
an extra blank to take home along with the  pattern so they could do another 
one.

Great way to introduce new carvers to something that they won't get 
discouraged with just starting off. Thanks to the Yourkcarvers and Dave 
Andreychek for sharing the pattern.
