Beautiful! Can’t wait to see it finished and installed! (but then I’m slightly biased – I’ve been watching over his shoulder the entire process!).

Nice work ,love the look .

That is just knock down gorgeous. Beautiful work!

Beautiful is right indeed.
There are so many details. The leaves veins match from one leaf to the next.

Do you use some power tools in your carvings?

I have never carved but I am looking to buy the dremel fortiflex to start shaping stuff. Any thoughts on the dremel?

Wow. You don’t have to answer but I’m very curious as to how much you charge for something like this. That must have taken a great amount of time.

Thanks everyone for the comments :-) The value of something like this is always a lot more then you charge the first time thru…..about $1500. The carving work was done with hand gouges only on both sides.

Thanks Steve. That’s definitely a lot great work.
