Pretty grim lookin' fella.
Mostly Western Red Cedar with lip and cigarette of Box Elder, Eyes of Aspen,ebony and streaked pine, hat band yellowheart (Pau Amorella).

Bit hard to be jolly when you are only a head :D

Very nicely done, is the ciggy an added extra? dont recall seeing it in one I had seem someone else make.

Hi Bob

Nice piece - beautiful timbers and great shaping (as usual) :)
You're putting out plenty of work, confined to barracks over there?
Cheers

Hi

Brett.
The cigarette is part of the original design. I guess it could be left out if one were concerned about promoting smoking. But I don't think this guy is too much of a theat as a role model.

Chained to my S.S.machine? No but bit cool here for outdoor woodworking.
Woke up to minus 30 this AM.

Great work as usual Bob.
It is +34 degrees C here today with a humidity level of about 80% and still it won't rain.
I can't imagine -30.
I mean how do you function.
Anyway at least it keeps Bob at his scrollsaw.
Looking forward to the next piece.
Steve.
