[Woodcarver] What have you been working on?

[Donna Menke]

Jack-
Enjoyed looking at your work- nice jewelry and spirits. The link to your other types of art didn't work for me, but the other 2 links did. I've often thought about joining band saw boxes with carving and jewelry/metals. I've done the carving on them but so far no metals.

I think your work is definitely in the 'art' category- just not 'artsy'. That is a compliment. Donna Menke
