The Auction for the carving “Jeremiah” ended today at 12:00 with the winning bid of $405.00 from Keith Rumohr. Keith craftily sled in at the last moment with his bid and walked away with a pretty nice carving. So, if Keith can send me his address I will get the piece boxed up and ready…

Making A Pair Of Reflective Sunglasses
These 5 videos were posted on Youtube 5 years ago. Now that you know how simple it is to make a pair of looking glass frames, here is a little more difficult project on how to make a pair reflective sunglasses. Again, while there are quite a few more steps in the process I think…
Making A Pair Of Glasses
We made this video on how I make glass frames back in 2015. Since then it’s received 4,617 views so I guess a lot of carvers found it interesting. Hopefully, they made their own set to add to one or some of their carvings cause this little detail can add a lot of character to…
Having Fun With The Chuckwagon! – 06/27/2015
Here are some photos of a family event we had using our old Chuckwagon. While it always caused a lot of work to set it up, operate out of it, and then take it back down, it was a heck of a lot of fun. We no longer have the old wagon and were sad…

John Wayne Gets Some Color! – 06/03/2015
Finished this one up yesterday and it turned out really nice. I forgot to measure it but it’s around 10-12 inches tall with the base. I was fortunate enough to sell it before it was even painted so I hope the collector likes the color version. The Duke will take up residence soon in south…

John Wayne – The Duke
I finished the carving yesterday and made the base this morning. I think he turned out really nice and should make a nice addition to someone’s collection. I made the hat cord out of some twisted wire and then carved the knots at the end. I made the badge out of a piece of…
