Need some help from any Houston area carver
I just completed a set of baseball plaques for my grandson's team in the Katy area,
they liked them so much I have a request for 25 more plaques for 2 different teams, the catch is
they need them for May 7th.
I have attached a picture of my design, if you are interested in helping, PM me and I will forward
the lady's E-Mail address.
The plaque was 6 x 9 and you use any material.

Sure wish I was in your area myshop. I'd love to help. Just a thought (without knowing your available time of course) but, 25 by May 7th doesn't sound too hard? Personally I would set a bunch up on a long board or two and just let the CW fly. Then separate and paint/stain them. I've done up to 16 foot, rather intricate carvings and my baby ran for 25 hours or more but, your design seems rather simple so I'd think much less time? But even so, in a day the carvings could be done with. Again, just a thought. Best wishes and I hope you find help if need be.

Perry,
I would love to help you out. But I am covered over with carvings and dead lines right now.
As they say it never rains till it pours.
Happy Carving

Thank you Robert D, The carving is not the problem, it's the routering the edges, sanding and painting
that take so long and not mention the weather is not helping either.
Perry B,
see you at the conference.
