Doug From whitwood at fairpoint.net Wed Apr 1 18:10:51 2009 From: whitwood at fairpoint.net (Marcia Berkall) Date: Wed, 01 Apr 2009 18:10:51 -0400 Subject: [Woodcarver] Wednesday Woodcarver Chat Message-ID: <20090401221052.8BA4F1BF815@smtp0.av-mx.com> Join in on the fun!!! For informative and fun REAL TIME conversations with a number of the carvers on "The List", come to the Woodcarver chats. We don't always talk about carving, but if anyone has a question or comment, we can get serious in a hurry. Get to know the people behind the names. And bring you carving questions with you!!! We meet on Wednesday nights at 9:30 PM Eastern and on Sundays at 4:30 PM Eastern. If you are NOT using an IRC chat program, I think you will like these simplified instructions!!! Just click on one of the links below...either will take you directly to #Woodcarverchat http://www.starlink-irc.org/java/java_williamslake.html?chan=#Woodcarverchat http://www.starlink-irc.org/java/java_stopover.html?chan=#woodcarverchat This may take a LONG time to load!!!!!!! Don't give up. When it finally does load, you will be asked to type in a nickname.....then click connect, and wait a little bit longer. The chat screen will open. Type something in the narrow horizontal space just below the chat screen and hit you enter key. Nothing to it! :) If you are using WebTV or still have trouble getting there, one of these links will work...we just save them as a last resort in case all other links don't work: http://63.79.14.90/cgi-bin/irc.cgi http://cobra-ip1.vipershells.com/cgi-bin/irc.cgi http://stopover.ky.us.starlink-irc.org/cgi-bin/irc.cgi (This one will have the fastest connection) Type in a nickname where it says"nickname"i Where is says, "channel", type in #woodcarverchat (don't forget the #). ******* If you are using an mIRC chat program: 1. Log onto your ISP. 2. Open mIRC. You should see a box "mIRC Options". If you don't then click on View then on "Options" Fill in the information there...you do NOT have to put in your real name or email address. For security purposes, make them up. Do put in the nickname you want and an alternative. 4. Click on the button with the sunburst icon, just to the right of the button that says, "Connect to Server". Where it says "IRC Network", scroll down until you see "Starlink-IRC" and highlight that so it shows in the window. There is also a Starlink network, so make sure that the one you select has the "IRC" after it. Now click on the arrow next to the IRC server window. That will list a number of Starlink-IRC servers....select one of them. The Starlink-IRC random server will automatically pick one of the servers for you, so you can use that one. With one of the Starlink-IRC servers in the window, click on "Connect to Server" If the Starlink Random Server is not in your mirc program you can add it: Click the "add" button. Where it says "Description" type "Starlink Random Server" Where it says "IRC Server" type IRC.STARLINK-IRC.ORG Port should be 6664,6665,6666,6667,6668,6669 (all of those with no spaces between them) and "Group" is Starlink-IRC 5. Once connected, you'll see lots of scrolling text. When that stops, type /join #Woodcarverchat in the window at the bottom and hit your "enter" key. (you need the / and #, and Woodcarverchat must be spelled exactly right) I have put these instructions on a web page with direct links at http://artwebmaine.com/woodcarverchat.html You may want to bookmark it. ******* See you there! E-mail me off the list for additional information and instructions.

Last weekend I taught a two day class? definitely a bright spot. Three ?veterans? doing figure carving, and three beginners (one a 12 year old) carving my Swedish Luck Trolls. The 12 year old?s parents tag teamed to keep their child supervised. The parental supervision is a ?strong recommendation? I make for students that young. In theory, it means there is a second set of ears listening to the lesson for the student and a second set of eyes watching them for me. How?s your Mom?

Must be what Matt said, everyone is carving. I had a disabled veteran, Mark Collens, here most of the day for a carving lesson. He's been working on a grape leaf relief and a free-form mirror, both in butternut. Next week Saturday he wants to start a walnut mantel. He thinks that he's ready and who and I to argue? LOL When we were at Camp Pendleton Sharon gave $100, for a commission, to one of the disabled veterans in the class, Jeremy, to carve us a Christmas Ornament. We got it yesterday. Wow, it's really something. I'll have to post a picture if I can ever pry it out of Sharon's hands long enough to take a picture. It's an 8-inch tall Santa with a Santa hat and beard, standing at attention, in Marine dress blues with Jeremy's two Purple Hearts and the rest of his metals. Instead of a rifle in his hand he's got a big V-tool with the Two Cherry logo. He did a great job and we'll treasure it always. Jeremy is getting discharged soon and going back to South Dakota. He's planning on coming to GOW 2009. I'm trying to get a few crucifixes done before Christmas. The clay class is going good. I really love throwing pots on the wheel. I'm even thinking about getting my own potter's wheel. I never know throwing pots could be so much fun.We started hand-building last week. Our first project was a mask.

Carving I hope. Friends in Carving: Please support our List - visit the Carvers' Campanion Shop at http://cafepress.com/woodcarving Hi Dick, Pat and Karen, I got your messages. Things have been quiet on the List. Must be what Matt said, everyone is carving. I had a disabled veteran, Mark Collens, here most of the day for a carving lesson. He's been working on a grape leaf relief and a free-form mirror, both in butternut. Next week Saturday he wants to start a walnut mantel. He thinks that he's ready and who and I to argue? LOL When we were at Camp Pendleton Sharon gave $100, for a commission, to one of the disabled veterans in the class, Jeremy, to carve us a Christmas Ornament. We got it yesterday. Wow, it's really something. I'll have to post a picture if I can ever pry it out of Sharon's hands long enough to take a picture. It's an 8-inch tall Santa with a Santa hat and beard, standing at attention, in Marine dress blues with Jeremy's two Purple Hearts and the rest of his metals. Instead of a rifle in his hand he's got a big V-tool with the Two Cherry logo. He did a great job and we'll treasure it always. Jeremy is getting discharged soon and going back to South Dakota. He's planning on coming to GOW 2009. I'm trying to get a few crucifixes done before Christmas. The clay class is going good. I really love throwing pots on the wheel. I'm even thinking about getting my own potter's wheel. I never know throwing pots could be so much fun.We started hand-building last week. Our first project was a mask.

I sure did miss it. Anyway, I've just lost my job and will need to try and earn a little supplemental income. The job market is bleak, especially for a 62 year old guy. Seems they don't want us older guys anymore. I'm seriously considering taking an early retirement and will definitely need to pick up some spending money. I have several outlets for carved sticks and also have a large supply of sticks. So, I have decided to go the "stick route" to see what I can drum up. A while back a stick carver had put out some plans for a stick carving bench. I lost the plan and have not been able to find it anywhere. It was very simple and was basically a home made vice type holding device made from some 2 x 6's and some basic hardware that was attached to a work bench. I just can't remember how it was built. If anyone has plans or ideas on such a device please let me know. I would also like to know if anyone out there has any info on the wood from the Australian maleluca tree. I live in southwest Florida (Naples area) and there are literally millions of these maleluca trees in the area. They are an invasive species and the state is trying to eradicate them. The supply of them is basically endless and I'd like to start carving them. I just don't know what kind of longevity can be had from them. If anyone knows anything about this wood please let me know. Thanks and glad to be back in the carving scene. Ed Fam **************A Good Credit Score is 700 or Above. See yours in just 2 easy steps!

What a clean up job that would be. Peter **************************************** Hi Peter, Actually the problem could be worse then that, clay dust dulls the tools. Dust from stone carving or water-based clay is very abrasive and should be kept far away from the carving studio and carving wood. After I retired I moved a lot of things out of my shop making it a lot easier to clean. I'm going to try doing the forming of the clay in the carving studio with the drying and glazing in the garage area hoping to keep the clay dust out of my carving area.

He is a most polite, gentle, skilled showman!!! Livio's waxed mustache is part of the show (smiling). He speaks his native tongue, Italian ...his wife speaks English. Communication across language barriers, through hand gestures is more obvious. He is a wonderful performer with his gestures (as you can imagine). Livio's carving studio is no more than a large closet at his art studio. Actually, he had few woodcarving tools in his shop. There may have been 10-20. I think the more skilled the woodcarver the less tools they use. I was so humbled with meeting Livio. I really wanted to ask how he carved the pages of his books that he is so noted for. BUT Livio was so smitten with the fan bird & the research we've done ...that is all we talked about. He studied the demos I carry with me & asked all sorts of questions (through his wife). I gave him a fan bird and he gave me a carved book which I absolutely cherish. When I departed, I wandered along the canals trying to sort out what had just happened. It was quite an experience. I hope you get to meet him someday. Best Sally http://www.FanCarversWorld.com On Apr 6, 2009, at 9:26 AM, Marcia Berkall wrote: > Livio DeMarchi has been my idol for years!!!!

Hi Donna, I have to admit that I sort of hijacked this thread as it was someone else who was carving light switch plates. I came to dealing with the problem because my wife carved the top of a box I built for her. Maybe some sort of simple design (the exterior is chip-carved) on the interior would do it. It might be worth a try. BTW, I tried to order your book from your website but you automagically want to ship it to Canada using International Priority Airmail resulting in me paying for it twice :-) This might be required when crossing oceans but not for books sent to Canada. I'll be picking it up from Amazon.ca, though, as it looks like a great book...maybe even the "Ultimate" bandsaw box book :-) -- Cheers --- Larry Marshall Quebec City, Quebec http://www.woodnbits.com http://www.woodnbits.com/blog From Linehan718 at aol.com Mon Apr 6 21:38:29 2009 From: Linehan718 at aol.com (Linehan718 at aol.com) Date: Mon, 6 Apr 2009 21:38:29 EDT Subject: [Woodcarver] Light plate switches Message-ID: In a message dated 4/6/2009 9:18:48 P.M.

What I have done is go to a hardware store that sells electrical parts. Buy a cover that already has the rectangular switch hole and the screw holes in it. They are commonly called 'handy box covers' and are about 2 1/8" wide and 4" high. They are a little bit domed. You can take a vise and squeeze them flat or just flatten them with a hammer. The steel is about 1/16" thick. They are not very expensive. 50 cents to 75 cents.

The difficult stuff is done, you have the correct size wood and metal, all you have to do is carve it. I have seen different shapes and woods. I have some oak ones and I have also seen some whitish wood that can be stained to whatever you want.

You would need very fine material- like fluff- to catch from a spark. I understand the need for caution, but this seems like overkill to me. Buying the metal switchplate cover and layering over seems like the easiest solution, but I have another that may work. If there is a small printing shop around that uses/used offset printing they may have some old used offset sheets. They are of thin aluminum that is easy to form. I used to get them for 25 cents. If not that- I think that the big box hobby shops have other thin sheet metals that maybe could work.

I think a couple of years ago I paid 10-15c each for the sheets. It is about 3 thous thick, easily cut with sharp shears or even a utility knife. This will protect your switch plates and guard against fire. It's true a single spark isn't likely to catch a piece of basswood, but excess heat lowers the combustion point of wood and multiple sparks from a frayed wire certainly could start it burning. I like to err on the side of caution, the fire code was written for a good reason based on history. Vic PS: Donna, I understand you will be up our way to give a couple of classes at the end of june! That's great, I'm looking forward to seeing you.

I live way out in the boonies, and we don't go to town much- like every 2 weeks or so. I cannot put the book into the mailbox for pick-up unless the mailing label with postage printed online is affixed. So if I want to send something over a few ounces I have to travel to the post office and that is a 20 mile round trip. I have also heard some/many horror stories from other small time vendors like myself who have gone totally to Priority because of extremely long delivery times- measured in weeks, and lost parcels with other methods. I have considered making more than one delivery option- now it is easy for me to do that- before it was nearly impossible. First-Class Mail International Large Envelope is the cheapest alternative, at $8.36, and delivery time "varies" Priority Mail International (including Canada) Flat-Rate Envelope costs $10.95. Delivery time is 6-10 days. You pay $2 more for the book in Canada, so the savings would be $.59- with less certain delivery time. So I offer just one choice, but if you can come up with a better alternative please let me know.

For informative and fun REAL TIME conversations with a number of the carvers on "The List", come to the Woodcarver chats. We don't always talk about carving, but if anyone has a question or comment, we can get serious in a hurry. Get to know the people behind the names. And bring you carving questions with you!!! We meet on Wednesday nights at 9:30 PM Eastern and on Sundays at 4:30 PM Eastern. If you are NOT using an IRC chat program, I think you will like these simplified instructions!!! Just click on one of the links below...either will take you directly to #Woodcarverchat http://www.starlink-irc.org/java/java_williamslake.html?chan=#Woodcarverchat http://www.starlink-irc.org/java/java_stopover.html?chan=#woodcarverchat This may take a LONG time to load!!!!!!! Don't give up. When it finally does load, you will be asked to type in a nickname.....then click connect, and wait a little bit longer. The chat screen will open. Type something in the narrow horizontal space just below the chat screen and hit you enter key. Nothing to it! :) If you are using WebTV or still have trouble getting there, one of these links will work...we just save them as a last resort in case all other links don't work: http://63.79.14.90/cgi-bin/irc.cgi http://cobra-ip1.vipershells.com/cgi-bin/irc.cgi http://stopover.ky.us.starlink-irc.org/cgi-bin/irc.cgi (This one will have the fastest connection) Type in a nickname where it says"nickname"i Where is says, "channel", type in #woodcarverchat (don't forget the #). ******* If you are using an mIRC chat program: 1. Log onto your ISP. 2. Open mIRC. You should see a box "mIRC Options". If you don't then click on View then on "Options" Fill in the information there...you do NOT have to put in your real name or email address. For security purposes, make them up. Do put in the nickname you want and an alternative. 4. Click on the button with the sunburst icon, just to the right of the button that says, "Connect to Server". Where it says "IRC Network", scroll down until you see "Starlink-IRC" and highlight that so it shows in the window. There is also a Starlink network, so make sure that the one you select has the "IRC" after it. Now click on the arrow next to the IRC server window. That will list a number of Starlink-IRC servers....select one of them. The Starlink-IRC random server will automatically pick one of the servers for you, so you can use that one. With one of the Starlink-IRC servers in the window, click on "Connect to Server" If the Starlink Random Server is not in your mirc program you can add it: Click the "add" button. Where it says "Description" type "Starlink Random Server" Where it says "IRC Server" type IRC.STARLINK-IRC.ORG Port should be 6664,6665,6666,6667,6668,6669 (all of those with no spaces between them) and "Group" is Starlink-IRC 5. Once connected, you'll see lots of scrolling text. When that stops, type /join #Woodcarverchat in the window at the bottom and hit your "enter" key. (you need the / and #, and Woodcarverchat must be spelled exactly right) I have put these instructions on a web page with direct links at http://artwebmaine.com/woodcarverchat.html You may want to bookmark it. ******* See you there!

We tend to be a bit quiet at times and a bit goofy at times, but we can be serious as well. So if you have questions or comments please speak up. There is a wealth of talent amongst us & I'm sure someone will reply. As for me & husband, David, we are pretty steeped in the world of fan- carving. We research it, we teach it, we do it, we write about it, ...(you get the picture). One of our articles is in issue 107 of WoodCARVING (British publication) which is just on the newsstands now. So enough about us. We hope to hear from you. Again, welcome ...we're glad you came. (smiling) Sally http://www.FanCarversWorld.com On Apr 11, 2009, at 7:43 PM, W.M.

I have been a subscriber to this list for about ten years (I think it was around the time work began on the Porch that was carved for Bill), but I showed up on the list because I wanted to use a different address for receiving carving list emails. I've been carving for close to 30 years now. You can see some of my work on my website. I just wanted to add my thanks to you Matt (and Bill before you) as well as all the other great contributors to this list. I have learned a lot from reading it over the years.

Join in on the fun!!! For informative and fun REAL TIME conversations with a number of the carvers on "The List", come to the Woodcarver chats. We don't always talk about carving, but if anyone has a question or comment, we can get serious in a hurry. Get to know the people behind the names. And bring you carving questions with you!!! We meet on Wednesday nights at 9:30 PM Eastern and on Sundays at 4:30 PM Eastern. If you are NOT using an IRC chat program, I think you will like these simplified instructions!!! Just click on one of the links below...either will take you directly to #Woodcarverchat http://www.starlink-irc.org/java/java_williamslake.html?chan=#Woodcarverchat http://www.starlink-irc.org/java/java_stopover.html?chan=#woodcarverchat This may take a LONG time to load!!!!!!!

Type something in the narrow horizontal space just below the chat screen and hit you enter key. Nothing to it! :) If you are using WebTV or still have trouble getting there, one of these links will work...we just save them as a last resort in case all other links don't work: http://63.79.14.90/cgi-bin/irc.cgi http://cobra-ip1.vipershells.com/cgi-bin/irc.cgi http://stopover.ky.us.starlink-irc.org/cgi-bin/irc.cgi (This one will have the fastest connection) Type in a nickname where it says"nickname"i Where is says, "channel", type in #woodcarverchat (don't forget the #). ******* If you are using an mIRC chat program: 1. Log onto your ISP. 2. Open mIRC. You should see a box "mIRC Options". If you don't then click on View then on "Options" Fill in the information there...you do NOT have to put in your real name or email address. For security purposes, make them up. Do put in the nickname you want and an alternative. 4. Click on the button with the sunburst icon, just to the right of the button that says, "Connect to Server". Where it says "IRC Network", scroll down until you see "Starlink-IRC" and highlight that so it shows in the window. There is also a Starlink network, so make sure that the one you select has the "IRC" after it. Now click on the arrow next to the IRC server window. That will list a number of Starlink-IRC servers....select one of them. The Starlink-IRC random server will automatically pick one of the servers for you, so you can use that one. With one of the Starlink-IRC servers in the window, click on "Connect to Server" If the Starlink Random Server is not in your mirc program you can add it: Click the "add" button. Where it says "Description" type "Starlink Random Server" Where it says "IRC Server" type IRC.STARLINK-IRC.ORG Port should be 6664,6665,6666,6667,6668,6669 (all of those with no spaces between them) and "Group" is Starlink-IRC 5. Once connected, you'll see lots of scrolling text. When that stops, type /join #Woodcarverchat in the window at the bottom and hit your "enter" key. (you need the / and #, and Woodcarverchat must be spelled exactly right) I have put these instructions on a web page with direct links at http://artwebmaine.com/woodcarverchat.html You may want to bookmark it. ******* See you there!

I was a little bit amused to see my name on the list of new subscribers, but I guess I deserve it for being a lurker for so long. I have been a subscriber to this list for about ten years (I think it was around the time work began on the Porch that was carved for Bill), but I showed up on the list because I wanted to use a different address for receiving carving list emails. I've been carving for close to 30 years now. You can see some of my work on my website. I just wanted to add my thanks to you Matt (and Bill before you) as well as all the other great contributors to this list. I have learned a lot from reading it over the years.

I don't think there are any dye stains that are water-based. I might be wrong. You might try adding alcohol to your water-based stain to lower the viscosity. That might get you deeper penetration into the wood. However It may not be much better because you are still working with a pigment stain. Joe Dillett The Carving Shop 645 E.

For informative and fun REAL TIME conversations with a number of the carvers on "The List", come to the Woodcarver chats. We don't always talk about carving, but if anyone has a question or comment, we can get serious in a hurry. Get to know the people behind the names. And bring you carving questions with you!!! We meet on Wednesday nights at 9:30 PM Eastern and on Sundays at 4:30 PM Eastern. If you are NOT using an IRC chat program, I think you will like these simplified instructions!!! Just click on one of the links below...either will take you directly to #Woodcarverchat http://www.starlink-irc.org/java/java_williamslake.html?chan=#Woodcarverchat http://www.starlink-irc.org/java/java_stopover.html?chan=#woodcarverchat This may take a LONG time to load!!!!!!! Don't give up. When it finally does load, you will be asked to type in a nickname.....then click connect, and wait a little bit longer. The chat screen will open. Type something in the narrow horizontal space just below the chat screen and hit you enter key. Nothing to it! :) If you are using WebTV or still have trouble getting there, one of these links will work...we just save them as a last resort in case all other links don't work: http://63.79.14.90/cgi-bin/irc.cgi http://cobra-ip1.vipershells.com/cgi-bin/irc.cgi http://stopover.ky.us.starlink-irc.org/cgi-bin/irc.cgi (This one will have the fastest connection) Type in a nickname where it says"nickname"i Where is says, "channel", type in #woodcarverchat (don't forget the #). ******* If you are using an mIRC chat program: 1. Log onto your ISP. 2. Open mIRC. You should see a box "mIRC Options". If you don't then click on View then on "Options" Fill in the information there...you do NOT have to put in your real name or email address. For security purposes, make them up. Do put in the nickname you want and an alternative. 4. Click on the button with the sunburst icon, just to the right of the button that says, "Connect to Server". Where it says "IRC Network", scroll down until you see "Starlink-IRC" and highlight that so it shows in the window. There is also a Starlink network, so make sure that the one you select has the "IRC" after it. Now click on the arrow next to the IRC server window. That will list a number of Starlink-IRC servers....select one of them. The Starlink-IRC random server will automatically pick one of the servers for you, so you can use that one. With one of the Starlink-IRC servers in the window, click on "Connect to Server" If the Starlink Random Server is not in your mirc program you can add it: Click the "add" button. Where it says "Description" type "Starlink Random Server" Where it says "IRC Server" type IRC.STARLINK-IRC.ORG Port should be 6664,6665,6666,6667,6668,6669 (all of those with no spaces between them) and "Group" is Starlink-IRC 5. Once connected, you'll see lots of scrolling text. When that stops, type /join #Woodcarverchat in the window at the bottom and hit your "enter" key. (you need the / and #, and Woodcarverchat must be spelled exactly right) I have put these instructions on a web page with direct links at http://artwebmaine.com/woodcarverchat.html You may want to bookmark it. ******* See you there!

(Viscosity is a measurement of resistance to flow.) The alcohol to mix should be wood (methyl) alcohol which is about half the viscosity of water. Grain (Ethyl) alcohol is about the same as water and Isopropyl is about 2 times higher than water (all measurements taken at room temperature). This brings up an interesting question about which alcohol to mix 50/50 with water to spray on your wood so it will carve easier? Wood (methyl) alcohol will give the deepest penetration, which is what you're looking for, in wood. It is also a poison so don't drink it. LOL Steve, I don't know if you sent this, but thank you for this information? " If you want depth, you might want to give dyes a try. I use TransFast water-soluble dyes and General Finishes pre-mixed water-based dyes. Both provide clear color changes and I just love them." I love General Finishes products, which is a small company in New Berlin, Wisconsin. I have been there and called them often when I have questions regarding finishes. I feel dumb not knowing that they had a water-based dye stain. A few years ago they gave me a bunch of samples to try and there were no dye stains in those samples. General Finishes is a good company and very knowledgeable about any type of finishes. Joe Dillett The Carving Shop 645 E.

I'm not sure that viscosity differences between these alcohols is relevant, Joe. The viscosity of any finish will be determined by the ratio of finish to solvent. Adding more alcohol (any alcohol) will lower the viscosity of any alcohol-based stain. Same is true for adding water to a water-based stain. The problem with pigment stains (any type) is that they are...well, pigments. They don't penetrate the wood; they sit on the surface. That's their job. Dyes, on the other hand, do penetrate and...dye the wood. Truth is, most mainstream "stains" (eg - Minwax stains) are a mixture of pigment and dye and the amounts of each are determined by the actual color. > Steve, I don't know if you sent this, but thank you for this > information?

This is the 1st time i've used tung oil. What am i doing wrong or am I expecting to much. It's possible that you're being caught by the vagaries of the mislabeling and misinformation that is the finishing industry. If you're using 100% tung oil, you shouldn't expect to gain a gloss finish. Tung oil will bring a depth and beauty to wood but not a gloss as, well, it's an oil, not a finish. By contrast, products like Formby's Tung Oil Finish (the original deception) isn't just tung oil but rather an oil/varnish mix. There are dozens of similar products. Some are labelled 'danish oil', others with equally magical names. But the addition of varnish to the 'mix' is what permits the gloss as the varnish will build on the surface. -- Cheers --- Larry Marshall Quebec City, Quebec http://www.woodnbits.com http://www.woodnbits.com/blog From bremmers at midwestinfo.com Fri Apr 17 14:46:53 2009 From: bremmers at midwestinfo.com (Gene and Darlene Bremmer) Date: Fri, 17 Apr 2009 13:46:53 -0500 Subject: [Woodcarver] another finish ques.?

On thing I use and you might try it if you like. When putting a finish on a carving, I use 1/2 Danish Oil, and 1/2 Birchwood Casey Tru Oil gun stock finish. It can be bought at sport goods stores, gun shops and some Walmarts have it. Small bottle and costs about $4.00 It is as it says, used for putting a finish on gun stocks. Gives them a nice shine and when mixed with Danish Oil accomplishes the finish and the shine all in one. I use it on carvings all the time. I am sure you would find it works also with Tung Oil. If left for some time though the Gun Stock Finish in the bottle will gel up in the bottle top layer. It is still good below the top skim.

After applying the tung oil, you can then wax and buff the carving. This gives you the depth of the tung oil with the luster of the wax. The wax also has a wonderful tactile feels. If you have not waxed carvings before, I would suggest trying it on a test piece first. In my experience, different waxes have different windows of time that are best for buffing after the wax is applied. You also want to be sure you have a stiff bristled brush to buff the wa in the corners and crevices. -- Hans Schwalm http://www.msdesigns.net On Fri, Apr 17, 2009 at 9:09 AM, Charley wrote: > Friends in Carving: Please support our List - visit carverscompanion.com/List/Support.html to donate. > > > I carved a stylized roadrunner?out of redwood.

You won't get gloss, but a nice semigloss. I've used the Beal Wood Buff System to good effect. If you want a gloss finish then make sure the tung oil has dried completely (no longer smells) sand it down a little and apply most any gloss varnish.

A while back, when I was making the transition from predominantly shows to predominantly galleries, I picked up a book by Carroll Michels , "How to Survive and Prosper as an Artist". There are several good books on the topic, but this just happened to be the one that I found. One of the pieces of advice that I took very seriously was to set a price for something and use that price wherever you are selling. The reason: Say a client finds a carving at a gallery and decides to go to your web page only to find that same, or similar, carving for less. Or a friend sees one for less. When I started out I was struggling to get$85 for a Santa. Thanks to the galleries they now sell for $250. What works for me is anywhere that my prices will be seen in public, the price is the same..galleries, web pages, shows. That does not mean that you can't give special pricing to repeat customers, friends, local people who find you other ways. I resisted working with galleries for years, not wanting to pay the high commissions. When I started to put together all the figures...high costs for better shows (some entry fees were between $200 and $400, or even more), travel expenses, motel/lodging expenses for shows away from my home, food...etc...etc., the commission fees started sounding better. Just be careful and try to find galleries that you hear about from other artists, or that you are able to fully research. Most galleries have a consignment agreement. Read it carefully. Be sure there is something in the agreement about who is responsible for damage to your carvings, theft, etc. I did have a carving stolen from a gallery and was compensated for it through the gallery insurance. Galleries have been wonderful for me. Thanks to them, my prices are far more reasonable, I now have something of a following, I am able to spend more time in my studio carving instead of packing/unpacking the van, and it's just a short drive to the post office :) The galleries I work with all consign at 40% to 50% commissions, so it is not an easy decision. I'd be happy to help with any other questions you may have. You can email me at whitwood at fairpoint.net. GOOD LUCK!!

For informative and fun REAL TIME conversations with a number of the carvers on "The List", come to the Woodcarver chats. We don't always talk about carving, but if anyone has a question or comment, we can get serious in a hurry. Get to know the people behind the names. And bring you carving questions with you!!! We meet on Wednesday nights at 9:30 PM Eastern and on Sundays at 4:30 PM Eastern. If you are NOT using an IRC chat program, I think you will like these simplified instructions!!! Just click on one of the links below...either will take you directly to #Woodcarverchat http://www.starlink-irc.org/java/java_williamslake.html?chan=#Woodcarverchat http://www.starlink-irc.org/java/java_stopover.html?chan=#woodcarverchat This may take a LONG time to load!!!!!!! Don't give up. When it finally does load, you will be asked to type in a nickname.....then click connect, and wait a little bit longer. The chat screen will open. Type something in the narrow horizontal space just below the chat screen and hit you enter key. Nothing to it! :) If you are using WebTV or still have trouble getting there, one of these links will work...we just save them as a last resort in case all other links don't work: http://63.79.14.90/cgi-bin/irc.cgi http://cobra-ip1.vipershells.com/cgi-bin/irc.cgi http://stopover.ky.us.starlink-irc.org/cgi-bin/irc.cgi (This one will have the fastest connection) Type in a nickname where it says"nickname"i Where is says, "channel", type in #woodcarverchat (don't forget the #). ******* If you are using an mIRC chat program: 1. Log onto your ISP. 2. Open mIRC. You should see a box "mIRC Options". If you don't then click on View then on "Options" Fill in the information there...you do NOT have to put in your real name or email address. For security purposes, make them up. Do put in the nickname you want and an alternative. 4. Click on the button with the sunburst icon, just to the right of the button that says, "Connect to Server". Where it says "IRC Network", scroll down until you see "Starlink-IRC" and highlight that so it shows in the window. There is also a Starlink network, so make sure that the one you select has the "IRC" after it. Now click on the arrow next to the IRC server window. That will list a number of Starlink-IRC servers....select one of them. The Starlink-IRC random server will automatically pick one of the servers for you, so you can use that one. With one of the Starlink-IRC servers in the window, click on "Connect to Server" If the Starlink Random Server is not in your mirc program you can add it: Click the "add" button. Where it says "Description" type "Starlink Random Server" Where it says "IRC Server" type IRC.STARLINK-IRC.ORG Port should be 6664,6665,6666,6667,6668,6669 (all of those with no spaces between them) and "Group" is Starlink-IRC 5. Once connected, you'll see lots of scrolling text. When that stops, type /join #Woodcarverchat in the window at the bottom and hit your "enter" key. (you need the / and #, and Woodcarverchat must be spelled exactly right) I have put these instructions on a web page with direct links at http://artwebmaine.com/woodcarverchat.html You may want to bookmark it. ******* See you there!

As she said, read their consignment agreement carefully. Know who's responsible for loss, damage and how long after the sale you expect to get paid. I've had good experiences and bad ones. The best gallery I was with, because they outright purchased my work, eventually wanted one of my large works on consignment. I read all the contracts and agreed. I found out a contract isn't any good if it is not enforceable because of bankruptcy. One of the partners went crazy and cut the head off it. He said that the statue kept speaking to him and would not shut up. He had to be institutionalized, the partner not my carving. First I heard of this was when the store was completely empty and the inventory was being held by the courts to pay off the debts. I managed to get back much of the items they purchased from me outright to help cover the costs of what was destroyed. One thing to look out for is where your items will be displayed in the store. Typically the items the store has their money tied up in, get the best display area. Consignment items, where they have none of their money, in are stuck in corners and lower shelves where they can't be seen very well. About pricing.... It depends on the agreement with the gallery if it is exclusive or not, but it is never a good idea to undercut the prices of the gallery. Joe Dillett The Carving Shop 645 E.

The Shops I work closest with my carvings under $125 they pay on delivery, carvings over this are on commission but they are right here where I am in contact and have known them for years. All work here is marked up 100% by the shop being a tourist town they do move alot of my work and I don't have the obligation of rent,light bill etc, one thing that may help with sales is to carve at the Shop have the owner to put up a sign stating the day you will be there sales always pick up for me when I am there.

If I am consigning I will not consign to 2 stores in the same town.?? I have done craft shows within a few miles of shops I have items in and I am very careful to keep the price the same. If you have a chance to consign at 25% it is a very good rate.? The store should have a very clear agreement or contract for you.? In most states the title to?consigned items goes from you to the buyer.? That means you need to make sure your contract or your own insurance protects you.? I had one store one time did not want to be responsible for shoplifting---my answer was- if You control it you are responsible---what happens when you have trouble meeting your bills ??? all of a sudden it was stolen -not sold?? I removed my items right away--three months later this shop was having money trouble and was not paying some of their crafter's. Shows can be very expensive but can do well for you.? If I am considering a show I like to check it out before I put out my money.? I like to spend a couple of hours in the parking lot and watch what people are carrying out of the show.? Are a lot of people carry items they bought?? Or?are only 1 or 2 people carrying out items??? Then I like to try to catch a few crafter's and try to find out if it's a good show for them, and what price point sells best.? Is the average sale $2, $25, or $50??? Remember what constitutes a good show for one person is not always what you would think a good show is.? I base a show on what the percentage of sales cost is.?? If I pay $300 for a show fee and then pay $300 more for a room and travel expense.? I need to sell at least $2400 to come out at 25%--? If I don't count anything for my time.? Additionally you have expense for your display booth, if you take credit cards (more fees),? All things considered I sometimes ask why I try to sell, but I think the real reward is having someone value your work enough to actually pay money for it. I think I am beginning to ramble. so I will quit for now if I can help with any specifics feel free to contact me.

My prices at the galleries and co-ops are/were higher than my direct sales to cover the % the shop takes. Because the craft shows are only rarely near the galleries I've only been asked once or twice about the price difference. I simply explained that here, at the craft show (or from the web site), they were buying more directly from me and there is no store "mark up". You could make the argument that your direct prices should also have a mark up to cover show expenses or web-site costs. If this is the way you think then move ALL your prices up accordingly (if you start selling through galleries), don't just keep them all where they are and absorb the gallery %. I had to learn the hard way that my pieces could sell much higher in galleries because they had the location and the clientele. In one case, sales were pretty low and then took off AFTER I raised the prices... go figure! Just MTCW.

I have only sold my carvings at woodcarving shows and by word of mouth thru people I knew from work, church, family, etc.? I have considered placing some of my work in different shops and paying the commission that they want.? I have a couple of questions about this practice.? Is there a standard Form that I can fill out with the vendor to show the agreement we have?? Is there a preferred way to keep track of the inventory that I have provided to the vendor for sale?? How about pricing structures?? If the vendor wants a 25% commission then a carving that he sells for $100 nets $75 for me.? If I am making the same or similar carving available directly from me thru my website or at a show, what price do I then charge?? Do I charge the same $100 because I have to consider that the additional $25 is to cover my costs in doing business at a show?? If someone is buying the carving thru my website do I use a lower price because I don't have commission or travel and show costs to dea l with?? If someone comes to me directly because they saw my business card posted on a bulletin board somewhere or because they heard about me from a previous customer, do I consider a different price for them?? Or is the answer simply "Set a price and use it across the board no matter what venue the sale occurs in"? Does anyone have any guidelines they can provide about how to deal with shop owners to make sure they respect what you are doing and treat you fairly??? If you decide to sell thru a shop can the shop owner insist that you do not sell like items at a lesser price anywhere else?? As you can tell from all the above questions, I am really without a clue on all this.?So, if anyone out there would like to give me any advice at all, I will greatly appreciate it.? I am prepared to read and soak up?any and all information that you wise folk may provide.?

Harold would be proud you got such a fine speciman from one of his books. A little trick he uses for getting a scruffty-looking unshaved face is to take a tiny V-Tool, barely stick it into the wood then pluck out a tiny chunk. Do this randomly over the entire beard area and you've got a mean ol' unshaven cowboy. Keep up the excellent work, Corey.

That was the one thing I wanted to come off well. I practiced that on a stick... must of carved it 20 times on a stick. Still didn't come out as severe as I wanted it too but I guess it's nasty looking enough to know what I intended. Actually I think the eyes are not squinty enough. That would have accentuated it.

The method that I use mostly is a Dremal engraver (model 290) or an ACE Hardware engraver (number 24615), both selling in the $10 area. It comes with 2 tips, high-speed steel and carbide. I grind the tips to a sharp point on about 15-degree taper. It works like a knife to engrave the wood yet has the control of a pencil. In the article I show lettering in black walnut as small as 1/16-inch. I use the high-speed steel tip for engraving wood and the carbide tip for metal and glass. Joe Dillett The Carving Shop 645 E.

For informative and fun REAL TIME conversations with a number of the carvers on "The List", come to the Woodcarver chats. We don't always talk about carving, but if anyone has a question or comment, we can get serious in a hurry. Get to know the people behind the names. And bring you carving questions with you!!! We meet on Wednesday nights at 9:30 PM Eastern and on Sundays at 4:30 PM Eastern. If you are NOT using an IRC chat program, I think you will like these simplified instructions!!! Just click on one of the links below...either will take you directly to #Woodcarverchat http://www.starlink-irc.org/java/java_williamslake.html?chan=#Woodcarverchat http://www.starlink-irc.org/java/java_stopover.html?chan=#woodcarverchat This may take a LONG time to load!!!!!!! Don't give up. When it finally does load, you will be asked to type in a nickname.....then click connect, and wait a little bit longer. The chat screen will open. Type something in the narrow horizontal space just below the chat screen and hit you enter key. Nothing to it! :) If you are using WebTV or still have trouble getting there, one of these links will work...we just save them as a last resort in case all other links don't work: http://63.79.14.90/cgi-bin/irc.cgi http://cobra-ip1.vipershells.com/cgi-bin/irc.cgi http://stopover.ky.us.starlink-irc.org/cgi-bin/irc.cgi (This one will have the fastest connection) Type in a nickname where it says"nickname"i Where is says, "channel", type in #woodcarverchat (don't forget the #). ******* If you are using an mIRC chat program: 1. Log onto your ISP. 2. Open mIRC. You should see a box "mIRC Options". If you don't then click on View then on "Options" Fill in the information there...you do NOT have to put in your real name or email address. For security purposes, make them up. Do put in the nickname you want and an alternative. 4. Click on the button with the sunburst icon, just to the right of the button that says, "Connect to Server". Where it says "IRC Network", scroll down until you see "Starlink-IRC" and highlight that so it shows in the window. There is also a Starlink network, so make sure that the one you select has the "IRC" after it. Now click on the arrow next to the IRC server window. That will list a number of Starlink-IRC servers....select one of them. The Starlink-IRC random server will automatically pick one of the servers for you, so you can use that one. With one of the Starlink-IRC servers in the window, click on "Connect to Server" If the Starlink Random Server is not in your mirc program you can add it: Click the "add" button. Where it says "Description" type "Starlink Random Server" Where it says "IRC Server" type IRC.STARLINK-IRC.ORG Port should be 6664,6665,6666,6667,6668,6669 (all of those with no spaces between them) and "Group" is Starlink-IRC 5. Once connected, you'll see lots of scrolling text. When that stops, type /join #Woodcarverchat in the window at the bottom and hit your "enter" key. (you need the / and #, and Woodcarverchat must be spelled exactly right) I have put these instructions on a web page with direct links at http://artwebmaine.com/woodcarverchat.html You may want to bookmark it. ******* See you there!

John and Alex are long-time members of the List and their support is appreciated. To see a list of 2009 supporters, please visit this page: http://carverscompanion.com/List/Supporters.html Newer members of the List may wonder, "What's this all about?" Like any activity, there is a real cost in running the Woodcarver List; ISP fees, file space charges, software and hardware, and time taken away from other activities. Long-time List members know that for a number of years the Woodcarver List has been supported by voluntary contributions from List members. When I took over the Woodcarver List last fall, I delayed making a decision on how best to seek support for the costs associated with running the List. Now, after considering alternatives, such as commercial advertising, and after consulting with the members of the List Advisory Team, it has been decided to continue the tradition of voluntary contributions. A donation to support the List is NOT a subscription fee or annual membership, and is NOT a requirement. Let me repeat that - a donation is not a requirement - it is strictly voluntary. If you are unable to support the List, or choose not to, you are still always welcome and encouraged to participate in the List conversations. For more information or to make a donation, please visit the List donation page at http://carverscompanion.com/List/Support.html In other List news, we are considering several new initiatives, including the possibility of LIMITED posting of photos to the List, as well as the construction of an optional List member biography page, which will help members learn more about each other, and will be particularly useful to new List members. If you have questions or comments, please contact me off list at womeditor at comcast.net Matt Kelley, List Owner *********************************************** From vhamburg at bellatlantic.net Wed Apr 22 20:39:30 2009 From: vhamburg at bellatlantic.net (Vic & Cynthia Hamburger) Date: Wed, 22 Apr 2009 20:39:30 -0400 Subject: [Woodcarver] Latest carving...Finally!!!!!!

Thanks Fred >>> Matt Kelley 4/22/2009 5:43 PM >>> Friends in Carving: Please support our List - visit carverscompanion.com/List/Support.html to donate. Good Afternoon Woodcarver List Members - I'd like to take a moment to acknowledge recent donations to support the Woodcarver List made by John Anderson and Alex Bisso. John and Alex are long-time members of the List and their support is appreciated. To see a list of 2009 supporters, please visit this page: http://carverscompanion.com/List/Supporters.html Newer members of the List may wonder, "What's this all about?" Like any activity, there is a real cost in running the Woodcarver List; ISP fees, file space charges, software and hardware, and time taken away from other activities. Long-time List members know that for a number of years the Woodcarver List has been supported by voluntary contributions from List members. When I took over the Woodcarver List last fall, I delayed making a decision on how best to seek support for the costs associated with running the List. Now, after considering alternatives, such as commercial advertising, and after consulting with the members of the List Advisory Team, it has been decided to continue the tradition of voluntary contributions. A donation to support the List is NOT a subscription fee or annual membership, and is NOT a requirement. Let me repeat that - a donation is not a requirement - it is strictly voluntary. If you are unable to support the List, or choose not to, you are still always welcome and encouraged to participate in the List conversations. For more information or to make a donation, please visit the List donation page at http://carverscompanion.com/List/Support.html In other List news, we are considering several new initiatives, including the possibility of LIMITED posting of photos to the List, as well as the construction of an optional List member biography page, which will help members learn more about each other, and will be particularly useful to new List members. If you have questions or comments, please contact me off list at womeditor at comcast.net Matt Kelley, List Owner *********************************************** _______________________________________________ Woodcarver mailing list Woodcarver at carverscompanion.com http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/woodcarver From psherman at suite224.net Thu Apr 23 09:04:06 2009 From: psherman at suite224.net (P Sherman) Date: Thu, 23 Apr 2009 09:04:06 -0400 Subject: [Woodcarver] Apple wood References: <49EFCF30.4030500@adelphia.net> Message-ID: <844C6D4E71F0490E9C997F8E3B77578F@patstoy> dave i have carved some small things in apple. it is lovely wood. and your name threw me. your name is the same as my bothers. youhave a good one.

It has a natural oil, thus the reason it was used for bearings and gears in those old clock-tower clocks. Because of its tight grain and natural oil it doesn't take a stain very well but it takes any clear finish well. Because it is a dense wood it will tend to split more when it dries. When drying it helps to leave the bark on, seal the ends with varnish and wrap in about 4 layers of newspaper. Let dry one year for ever inch thickness. If you are thinking about using the limbs make sure the heart is close to the center of the log. If it is far off center (reaction wood) it is very unstable and will unpredictably crack, doesn't carve well and doesn't finish well. Joe Dillett The Carving Shop 645 E.

Carved and oiled, the wood baries in color from red to orange to yellow to white, depending in its place within the trunk and the amount of decay that has built up. Formally fruitful apple trees, the kind that grows an an orchard or backyard, offer remarkable shapes, too -- plenty of curves to exploit. But orchard apple trees are unpredictable too. Because farmers make a practice of pruning as a tree grows, water can seep in and form pockets or punky rot. You can usually get around these cavities if you are sculpting but they would make turning bowls a pretty frustrating activity. Wild apples that have grown in a forest can offer pure grain and multiple colors, without rot. Because they have to compete with surrounding trees to survive, they grow straight and true. The wood is remarkably hard, particularly after drying for 2-3 years. Still, I keep both forest apple and orchard apple in the shed, slowly drying as I try to figure out what they can become John Clarke From neussea at prodigy.net Thu Apr 23 14:28:31 2009 From: neussea at prodigy.net (Alex Neussendorfer) Date: Thu, 23 Apr 2009 11:28:31 -0700 (PDT) Subject: [Woodcarver] Branding Tool Message-ID: <396338.22538.qm@web81805.mail.mud.yahoo.com> Hello, I plan to purchase a branding tool to burn my name on wood things.

I think that's why some carvers don't take on commissions. Then again some of us carvers thrive on that feeling, that they might not like it, because it motivates us to do a better job. Looking back I bet that fear is unfounded, because how many customer were actually unhappy with anyone's work? My guess would be less than 1/2% and then the work would have to be really crappy. Many carvers feel if they lower the price somehow the customer will like it better. When we think about it, price has very little to do with them liking it. When I began taking on commissions I was very apprehensive about every commission, but it got easier year after year. Joe Dillett The Carving Shop 645 E.

Good news! It might be a sign of the times, but they still have a couple slots open this year. I didn't mention it in the article, but if you don't care for dormitory style cabins with shared bathrooms you can find your own accommodations nearby and I think they have one cabin set up for couples.

Maura, I am a freak about contact!! I update my blog or email photos of commisions to my clients regularly and look for their feedback along the way. When there is regular two-way contact and then it stops for a few days, that is when I get concerned. N o contact always makes me nervous. Maybe that is a throw-back to my previous life in sales. You are right..there are so many other situations that can delay a return email, and I have to remind myself that although this may be top on my list of priorities at the time, my client may have other situations to deal with. As it turns out, everything is fine. Denny, you bring up a valid point. Email can be inconsistent. I always get alternative contact information, including phone numbers. For a while I was having some major problem getting emails from my server to anyone with AOL. For some reason AOL had pivot.net blocked on many occasions. I've set up alternative email addresses specifically for that reason, and have also resorted to the land line for phone calls. Thanks everyone for your responses !

This is a cowboy roughout that I have had for a while. It's about 7 1/2 inches tall on the base. It's designed by the late Jim Bledsoe called Old Shep. I have seen a lot of similar patterns, carvings etc. like this called Old Shep. Recently got a pattern from and old book at the club called War Eagle 1 and it has a similar one in it called Old Shep. I think William Grey did on in Carving Mag called Old Shep as well.

For informative and fun REAL TIME conversations with a number of the carvers on "The List", come to the Woodcarver chats. We don't always talk about carving, but if anyone has a question or comment, we can get serious in a hurry. Get to know the people behind the names. And bring you carving questions with you!!! We meet on Wednesday nights at 9:30 PM Eastern and on Sundays at 4:30 PM Eastern. If you are NOT using an IRC chat program, I think you will like these simplified instructions!!! Just click on one of the links below...either will take you directly to #Woodcarverchat http://www.starlink-irc.org/java/java_williamslake.html?chan=#Woodcarverchat http://www.starlink-irc.org/java/java_stopover.html?chan=#woodcarverchat This may take a LONG time to load!!!!!!! Don't give up. When it finally does load, you will be asked to type in a nickname.....then click connect, and wait a little bit longer. The chat screen will open. Type something in the narrow horizontal space just below the chat screen and hit you enter key. Nothing to it! :) If you are using WebTV or still have trouble getting there, one of these links will work...we just save them as a last resort in case all other links don't work: http://63.79.14.90/cgi-bin/irc.cgi http://cobra-ip1.vipershells.com/cgi-bin/irc.cgi http://stopover.ky.us.starlink-irc.org/cgi-bin/irc.cgi (This one will have the fastest connection) Type in a nickname where it says"nickname"i Where is says, "channel", type in #woodcarverchat (don't forget the #). ******* If you are using an mIRC chat program: 1. Log onto your ISP. 2. Open mIRC. You should see a box "mIRC Options". If you don't then click on View then on "Options" Fill in the information there...you do NOT have to put in your real name or email address. For security purposes, make them up. Do put in the nickname you want and an alternative. 4. Click on the button with the sunburst icon, just to the right of the button that says, "Connect to Server". Where it says "IRC Network", scroll down until you see "Starlink-IRC" and highlight that so it shows in the window. There is also a Starlink network, so make sure that the one you select has the "IRC" after it. Now click on the arrow next to the IRC server window. That will list a number of Starlink-IRC servers....select one of them. The Starlink-IRC random server will automatically pick one of the servers for you, so you can use that one. With one of the Starlink-IRC servers in the window, click on "Connect to Server" If the Starlink Random Server is not in your mirc program you can add it: Click the "add" button. Where it says "Description" type "Starlink Random Server" Where it says "IRC Server" type IRC.STARLINK-IRC.ORG Port should be 6664,6665,6666,6667,6668,6669 (all of those with no spaces between them) and "Group" is Starlink-IRC 5. Once connected, you'll see lots of scrolling text. When that stops, type /join #Woodcarverchat in the window at the bottom and hit your "enter" key. (you need the / and #, and Woodcarverchat must be spelled exactly right) I have put these instructions on a web page with direct links at http://artwebmaine.com/woodcarverchat.html You may want to bookmark it. ******* See you there!

I have done a few and most were very satisfactory to both sides of the arrangement. The only one that was not satisfactory was when the price was not agreed upon up front. He said to just charge what I thought appropriate- so I did- and he was unhappy. Lesson learned- price agreement (or, at least a range) before starting. I strongly agree with whoever said that they found commissions stimulating. I don't ever seem to get around to carving something unless it is requested- and will be paid for. Sometimes I was worried that the project was beyond my capabilities, but with proper preparation I managed quite well.

The link to my PictureTrail albums is: http://www.picturetrail.com/sfx/album/listing/user/abisso The new photos include: 1. Recently complete spirit face - done in a piece of bark that was dense and heavy. I wanted to see how it would carve and, although it was harder, especially near the surface, it carved quite well and held detail well on the inside. 2. Even more recently completed carving of a wood spirit embellished with some acorns and oak leaves. I started this one at a carving club meeting (had been a long time since I went to one) and finished it later at home. The above 2 carvings are now in my "Bark Carvings" album 3. Photos of a beautiful brown trout carving that I finally finished painting and mounting. It took forever for me to finish the painting and mounting but it turned out exceptionally well and is my favorite fish carving to date. These photos are in my "Carvings" album. 4. In addition to the above, I added several photos of cottonwood bark that I recently collected. I got to feeling bad that so many people seem to look at the bark photos and they were all so old. Actually, I am constantly renewing my bark supply - just don't get around to taking and posting new photos very often. These photos are in my "Items for Sale" album. After signing in to the PictureTrail site to upload the photos, I also learned that they now give the e-mail address of people who post comments in my guestbook. The last time I looked they did not do this and I was frustrated because I could not respond to the comments, even when a question was asked. It is much better now because and e-mail address is provided so I can respond to any comments made. One question about photos. I did get a photo cube - used it for the brown trout photos with good success. However it seemed that the bark carving photos done in it had a more reddish brown color that the actual carvings. For that reason, I used photos made outside against a tree. I suspect the redness was due to my use of incandescent bulbs on each side of the photocube. Does anyone have suggestions for a better light source? Alex Bisso Billings, MT -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
