<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"'>Thanks
to all who responded to my question about finishes for a partly painted, partly
natural carving, I have printed out the suggestions. When my friend
finally gets her sign back to me to carve, I will know what to do with it when
it’s finished. This is the waterfall I was carving last year.
But they glued the wood up in opposite directions. That was fine during
the drought we had, but when we finally got some humidity, everything started
separating, so I reluctantly chalked all that carving up to practice, and sent
it back to them to fix.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
