    Thanks everyone. It is always nice to hear kind words coming from my peers.

    The whole project tooks a couple of months from start to finish, but alot of time was spent waiting for approval before we could advance. Total carving time was about 30 hours and I think prototypes and design time was probably another 20 or so. On the cabinetry end everything had to be designed to be taken apart and shipped and then assembled with minimal tools.


    The client was very happy with the results and there is talk of having us do a matching pulpit sometime in the future. The cool part is that if we do the pulpit, I get to go to Belgium and help with the install. .

    Thanks again.

    Yes it was very enjoyable seeing this project come together. Who would of thought that a CarveWright could play such an important role in something like this. That should make us all proud.

    Oh and for Ron......it was all done with the Rock.
