Hi woodbutcher Jan
The snake is nice but I am intrigued by the design on your chip carved egg.
Laying out a symmetrical pattern on an egg is tricky. Will you share how
you did this design? It looks like crossing spirals. Did you start with
concentric circles around the egg and then draw an even number of vertical
lines from which you drew diamonds within the crossing reference points. If
this is so, how do you draw your vertical lines on the egg, freehand or do
you have a geometry technique?
++++++++++++++++++++++I use a VERY simple techniuq
I don't even know what those high filutant words mean that you used
Make a strait line lenghtways on the egg with Now you have TWO halves
devide each halve in to thre
now you have six equil slices as with an orange

than I just zigzag on a 45 degree from top to bottum and you are all set to
do them all even
If you still have a problem I'll make a drawing and place it in my website
PT album
BUT than again git that HOME WORK done that I give ya
MOVE IT!!!!!!!Git on with it !!!!!!!!
