Chief31794 Report post Posted January 21, 2015 One of the new members here, Longbowdave1 has a daughter graduating as a Registered Nurse in the Spring and he wanted a purse to commemorate the occasion to give her. I hadn't carved a Caduceus before, a little tedious, but I think it turned out okay. The last picture was a production progress shot I sent him after the carving and dying but before the finishing, hole punching and lacing was accomplished.

Halitech Report post Posted January 22, 2015 all I can say is WOW! That is seriously one beautiful job, not that I expect to see anything but out of your stuff Chief. I'm not even going to ask how long it took to tool that piece but I know it would be about 8x longer for me to do it Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
