I was ask about Lash LaRue’s sidekick when I posted an entry a few days ago. Where here he is. Played by Al St. John, From IMDB: “ Movie legend has it that the “Fuzzy” nickname occurred during the Fred Scott singing westerns at Spectrum in the 1930s.

I might be a little man in a big world but on our 30 acres I'm the one in charge when the wife's not around!
OUT WEST HAPPENINGS! – 04/10/2015
I thought I would add a few other things that are going on around the Out West Gallery and Shop to maybe spice up my carving ramblings. Yep! It’s April and spring is here! You can certainly tell that by the beautiful native Dogwood tree that stands between the Out West shop and Gallery. Our…
The Kansas City Show – 03/16/2015
We had a great time at the show. While the table count for the show was down for the reasons I explained on the “Out West Woodcarving Posse” Facebook page, it was still a success for us. I managed to take Second Best of Show for my newest piece: “Big Bear” which also took First…
Paint!
I’ve been getting lots of questions lately about what type of paint I use and where can they be found. Well, here are my thoughts on the matter!: – Yesterday, the wife and I drove up to Joplin to resupply my paint inventory. Now, like a majority of most carvers who paint their pieces, we…
Big Bear – 02/08/2015
I hoping to get this one done before the Kansas City show. It’s all finished now except for the painting. That bear claw necklace is a real snappy detail which will look great once it’s painted. I plan on threading some beads between the claws but will have to wait until it’s almost completely done…
Red Hawk – 2/22/2015
I had hoped to complete this piece before heading off to the Charlotte, North Carolina Woodcarving show that’s taking place this weekend but as the weather put an end to that it can make it’s debut here. So, I guess before I can start a new piece I’d better head to the barn and look…
Pepe Gets Some Color
Originally published on January, 2015- – Painted this one yesterday. Not that much to say about him other than I spent a little extra time on his hat. I like the colors and hope you do too.
Abdul, The Terrorist!
I put the final touches to this reprobate yesterday. Took a few liberties by adding some real hair (horse hair actually!) which really brings him to life. I also repainted his upraised arm and sword to make the piece a little more acceptable if that’s possible. I left a little on his outer tunic to…
Hello 2015- Beans For Breakfast!
With the advent of the New Year I finally wrapped this one up this morning so now he can chow down on those beans!. I really like the way the jacket painting turned out. To me it looks exactly like a worn denim jacket. I originally had planned on having just the figure with his…

Published on December 31, 2014 -Here’s the last one for this year. Haven’t fixed on a name for him yet. Sometimes it takes a while for one to show up. Anyway, hope you like him. Comments welcome.
