A Few for the upcoming Craft Show

[cnsranch]

I'll post more pics later - most of the items are boxed up......

Cut the cross out of ash - the "scrap" board looked so good that I "floated" the cross in it...

The "Jesus Face on Cross" was kind of a "goof" - I cut it on Cedar, and had my board settings wrong - it cut through the carve, and was going to toss it until TLOML talked me into attaching it to a piece of ash - I really like the way they turned out...

The shot glass holder - found the glasses at a garage sale - was fortunate enough to match the font on the glasses, and added the names to the holder on all four sides....

7 or eight Rosary Boxes, made of either hickory or maple....

Couple more.....

Jerry,

Looks like a great bunch of carvings! They should do very well I am sure!

[cnsranch]

Thanks, Mr, H. - we'll see.......

[eelamb]

Jerry those came out really nice. They should sell well.

[Digitalwoodshop]

Nice Work !!!! Have plenty of Business Cards for all the Custom Orders.... :mrgreen:

[chebytrk]

Hey Namesake.... All those carvings look really great, but in particular what size is that Last Supper carve? I really like it & wonder where you got it. I've got a few already, but that one looks different. Almost as if it was resized horizontally or something.


Couple more.....

Thanks, AW - now, if I can net more than $2 per hour :)

Jerry - TLOML says that's the "Second to Last Supper" drinks before dinner..

Here's the mpc - it's here in the Forum somewhere - I carved it with the grain, not against as usual - really turned out great.

I believe it was originally a scan - carves great - the upper left corner is short somewhat, but it doesn't really show up too badly in the carve.

Very nice job. Which show are you going to.

[SharonB]

Beautiful work on all the pieces. I really like the dragon....how large was this carved?

[b.sumner47]

I agree with Sharon about the dragon, Nice.Great work and good luck at the shows.

Great work on all the carvings! You should sell out quickly! Good Luck!

[easybuilt]

Beautiful carvings Jerry! I wish you fantastic sales.

[cnsranch]

Sharon - I found the dragon here somewhere - mpc attached.

I actually carved that one immediately after installing the CT system to see how much better it is that the old QC system. CT beats it hands-down.

That's carved on a piece of pine, about 6"x6". Detail's great - I'm sure you can paint it to the nines.

An update for those who don't have anything else to do but read this stuff (like me)......

Craft Fair was Friday and Saturday from 10-3 both days. Didn't "tear 'em up", but I think I covered my costs.....

Sold the Last Supper before we even opened - the lady let me continue to display it, and I got an order for another.

They sold for $50 each.

Sold three Rosary boxes at $30 each.

Sold one of the Jesus face on Cross (remember the ones I messed up and TLOML convinced me to save them?) and the lady ordered another five of them - $35 each.

Six Christmas Ornaments at $5 each.

One Chiefs sign at $15 (which, considering their record, is a miracle in itself).

I don't know who the old fat guy in the pic is, but that's my Mom.

[TerryT]

Sounds like a successful event Jerry. Nice work. If you handed out business cards you should get a few phone orders later also.

Jerry it looks like you have a good selection of items to cover any person coming by.
I like your display setup. If you made money that's good too. I like to tell people
that I sell carving possiblities too and I never let the chance to plug the Cw machine
when talking to men and women too. I have a sign that hangs in the booth the states," if you want to
enhance your woodworking, ask me about a CarveWright machine."
Keep up the good work that also sells.
