[Woodcarver] Relief carving question

[Bill Judt]

John:

The carving will need to be hung with thick single-strand wire to two 
screws set deeply into two wall studs. These must be wood studs. Metal 
studs will not hold that weight.
The wire must be fastened to two screws set into the wood (pre-drill 
the holes). The wire must NOT unwind from the screws.

Hope this helps,

Bill
