Mike Craw Report post Posted September 16, 2007 Great carving job! Can't wait to see it with the finish on it. Add my vote for the braiding tutorial! I thought I was the only one who didn't know how to do that. Mike Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Report post Posted September 16, 2007 Here is the first step in the staining process. I'll see what I can do about the tutorial on the lacing....it is a lot of picture taking so it could take me a while. Dave Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

freak Report post Posted September 17, 2007 Dave, i'm gonna say what i say evertime you post your work. I love it. I love you work man so please don't ever stop sharing.

MatthewD Report post Posted September 17, 2007 David, You use an airbrush on your staining don't you? If so, how do you clean your airbrush.. I just got one... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Johanna Report post Posted September 17, 2007 Gosh, Dave, don't you just feel older than dirt some days? My daughter asked me why it wasn't "greatful" dead, and what did "grateful dead" mean, anyway? I knew the answers, and can hum the songs, too. Anyway, you did some (here comes a pun) "great" work again, as usual. I'm disappointed you aren't going to enter a seat in the show, because I think you could earn a ribbon. I'm looking forward to the tutorial on lacing, too, and holler if you want any technical help putting it together. You do amazing work, and I'm glad you keep sharing with us.

Guest Report post Posted September 17, 2007 Johanna, I'm not sure that I could have given correct responses to your daughter's questions. But that may just be my memory failing.... you know that memory is the first thing to go..... I forget what goes second..... As far as the show goes, I just could not get things done in time.....Every time I got a chance to work on my "show" seat, a paying job came in and interrupted things....Then it took me forever to find out where those entry tags are to be obtained..... I was just too much of a rookie to figure things out fast enough..... But there is always next year .... it is here in Ohio...right? And then in Indianapolis in 2009? I can make both of those......and I won't be so green about the show thing. Dave Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
