Doug, you get the ball a lot more perfectly round than I ever can. And to me the smaller the harder to do. Great work.

My wife was going to be in the area with her sister and friend and he invited them to see the process(which she said was really neat). When the left he gave them all a broom and brush to take home, so I made a caricature carving of him as a gift. She’s going to surprise him with it next time he comes in to eat.

The top " knife " is the first knife I had when I was a small kid, an Auburn rubber knife, which is a replica of a real folding hunter. I always wanted a real replica of the Auburn, so I made up the one shown from bar stock and sheet brass. The handle material is rosewood, which turned out to be too hard to carve by usual means. I ended up doing it with the Dremel tool. Like I said mixed results, kind of ended up looking like a zombie longhorn skull.
