[Woodcarver] I'm Back

Good eagle carving, Ray, but did you ever consider carving something smaller and 
easier to handle. . . like a hummingbird!

 Just kidding.

Hi Y'all, I've been absent awhile but getting better now.  Had a     triple 
by-pass on 21 Jun and am on the mend.  I started a new     project in July, took 
me a long time to pull the lumber and sort out     what I needed and jointed it 
up.I had admired this Eagle panel for     several years and finally decided I 
had to give it a shot.  It is     possibly a logo for one of the advertisers in 
one of the Carving     mags.  I have no idea who did it or how big it is but I 
was     impressed enough to steal the design from the ad.  I'm going to send     
a pic to the Company when I find the address.  Anyhow the carving is     in 
Butternut wood and I started carving on it about mid-August.     We've been in 
Florida since 18 Oct and between all the other thing     going on I'm ready to 
put the final finish on.  I'm using wipe on     Poly and need to rub it out and 
put on a couple more coats.  There's     a few woodcarving shows around here 
during the winter, maybe I'll     try a couple.

Glad Ol' Don is hangin' in there, gotta keep the juices flowing,      but for my 
money, getting old Sucks!  Big Time!!  Golden Years my     #&@!!
