Those are very nicely done, patterns look great.

You should be very proud of those, one question (did the zebra wood end up kinda hairy, curious)

really like the designs. in regaurds to the one in the first pic i like to put a carve region around it to get rid of the irregular feather. try one that way i think you'll like it. also you could put the carve region over the entire boaurd as to carve away every thing and trim the part that had to remain high for the rollers.

Hi Jason

I was surprised that the zebrawood did not get too hairy as fiber as the wood is.
The pic is right out of the machine with some brace wire brushing.

Gi day Tim

thanks for the tips I would not be where I am today with carving with out them.

The panels are beautiful. Did you do your own artwork?

Hello HotPop

I am haveing a hard time Knowing what is mine and what is copy.

All the patterns are scanned except for the deer that was from a pic of one here on the forum. The trees boarder is a chain saw carving I did a few years ago. 8 scans in all
and arranged in photo shop and designer 1.126

All art has been done before my time I just give my twist to it and hope it looks good.

thanks Ray
