wood carving
ohma:
Kerry thanks for posting that and the nice words. ive got some pics of others but just havent felt like doing much last few days. i have to say that i sure underestimated the knee surgery it has been alot more uncomfortable than i was prepared for.
thomas h:
ive caught fish that dont look as real as the carvings do
Knocker:
Very nice carving. My father had a total knee joint replacement. It set him back awhile, but he is walking like new now... Hang in there!

I was once a serious duck decoy carver. I sold them too cheaply and had a huge backlog of orders so I walked away form carving in 86. After looking at my huge pile of Tupelo gum carving wood for the last 24 years I finally decided bow and flintlock rifle building had permanently replaced carving. Sold all my wood yesterday, probably 25-30 well seasoned blocks, most large enough to carve a full sized decoy from, for $100.
The bad thing is, I sold all my really great carvings and only have a couple of so-so ones left.

Love that woody, Eric. Those are by far my favorite duck. They're a a pain to paint, though.
