  I finally finished my relief carving from Bill Judt's carving class last June.  Bill helped with the design layout as well as the carving process and his class was a great experience - don't miss the chance to go to one if you get the opportunity.  Although I put in 10 - 12 hours per day in the class I still had some lettering, details, clean-up work and finishing to do at home.   I also had to get a proper vise and bench set up to hold the carving before doing anything - and to make a small mallet for doing the stamping work around the letters.  I sure learned a lot in Bill's class and am looking forward to another.  This was hard work but I am pleased with the carving, which I named "Free Spirit".  It was done for my sister and her husband who are lay ministers and have be active in prison ministry.  This carving is shown in the first 3 photos in my carving albums at my PictureTrail albums site which is:
