        Anybody want to buy some tools? It's time for me to get another hobby. Wow, talk about craftsmanship.

          Thanks for posting the link.

          Wonderful work, definitely showcases hand carving. Can't do that by machine, that's for sure. Now if we could just get the American public to understand this so they would more readily pay a fair rate for hand work.....

          Guess I'll add that to my wish list, right behind "world peace" ;-)

            Some "woodworkers" are true artists, others (like me) manage to be just relatively precise carpenters.

            I enjoy seeing the artistry with lots of admiration an envy.

              Art work and a lot of hours of pure detailing. Way over my head!

                Steve, if your simply a precise carpenter, then I truly resemble my name.... or just a monkey with power tools. This guy if you remember from previous posts of his work, mostly works with hand tools and for limited times (wife issue) unbelievable. If I was her, I would set this man up proper and have him teach others. I think his piece is museum worthy.

                    Hey, I think I am a relatively precise carpenter , others may not agree.

                    And yes, that is museum quality - - quality that I can only dream about achieving.

                      Nah,

                      It's all done at night by elves. Ask Lee, he knows all about them.
