Lets not muddy up the other thread.

I dabble with wood. I'm still learning the ropes.

I just got into wood carving. I carved this little guy about 5 minutes ago.

I only do carpentry, no carving, though I do have one more gunstock if I can ever get to it. I've carved 3 in the past, but I don't have any pictures.

I have never carved a complete gunstock. I don't believe I possess the skills. I have inlet several rifles into semi-finished blanks that I was very pleased with.

I used to enjoy building cribbage boards. Simple projects that made great gifts. I have family that work at the Ethan Allen factory so I had an almost endless supply of free hardwood cutoffs to work with. I haven’t made one in years, it’s kinda funny I’ve made so many of the damn things but my boards at home are just cheap Walmart boards lol.

I really like those tree spirit carvings.
