[Woodcarver] Carving basswood egg question

[jackcarves at juno.com]

Victor, I've carved a bunch of Santas on round object, including basswood
eggs.  I always lay out the face on the edge grain.  Laying it out on
ther flat gives more of a chance that the nose or mustache would chip
off.  
Just my two cents worth.
