Thank you - I'm glad I can carry on his love for woodworking. He liked the big items though - hutches that take 4 men to carry, etc. I knew I couldn't do the big stuff, but hoping to find my groove (or carve)!

[loretta_byerly]

Thanks Kevin! This forum has been a life line for me (and seriously, it was one of the reasons I went with the CarveWright). You all are awesome!

Welcome to the CarveWright community! Your first project is nicely done! Be sure to check out "Tips and Tricks" and the "Learning Guide" under the "Support" heading "Downloadable Items"
Happy Carving!

Thanks Dbemus. I read through several of them last night and going to read through some more tonight. I had been thinking the forums would have more updated information, since some of the tips were many years old, but I am getting alot out of it! Thanks for the gentle push (sometimes I need that) ;)
