Yes, its hard to believe that I am still plugging away at this carving. Today intently cleaing up the area of the hand and the basket and all of my good intentions to remember the antlers went out the window when I heard the "Crack". So out with the drill and glue and dowel and got him repaired. Looks good as new and probably stronger. My affection for this guy seems to be on the wane so must be close to done. When do you know for sure you are done? I can usually go around and around carving and recarving and still find feathers of wood. This wood has been nasty....but I guess when my excitement lessens and it becomes a duty, I must be close. If you are checking this out...anyone...thanks for still being interested. Patti
