Sweet! It's like we're all inside David's head! Getting to pick up all the pieces of talent we can find!

Thanks Dave!

Kate and Troy,

Thanks for taking a look. I'm glad you are enjoying it.

Today is a work day (at my regular job) so tooling won't get started until late.

Inside my head eh?

So THAT'S where the voices are coming from.......

I thought I needed to increase my meds.....

lol

Take care

Looking good. One question.... do you have a seat blank you use or have you figured out the cutout pattern for the seat top from previous seats and is it a standard size? (I think I'm asking the right questions, maybe I'm not. Noob here)

The vast majority of my seats use the same seat pan. It is a West Eagle pan and a favorite of the the chopper builders. So I have a set of seat patterns for it... a pattern for the top and a separate one for the back. I usually cut them out about 20 at a time. As I've done seats using other pans, I've created and saved patterns for them as well.

Thanks for looking at my project.

Today I finished the Phoenix and one of the koi fish and all of the remaining flowers.

So I hope to finish the carving tomorrow. That could be pretty ambitious as I know that Thanksgiving company arrives tomorrow.

Let me know what you think and feel free to ask questions.
