First project
I posted this in the turning forum but thought I'd put it here too. Very new to carving so feedback welcome. 20150119_171107.jpg20150119_171031.jpg20150119_171021.jpg

Just make sure you have it the right way round when you use the mallet

It is for donging sharks when fishing so 'right way round' is the least of the worries...

Ah. Now I see the wonderful shark carving.
If that doesn't get their attention, I suggest that you add
a lead core. Bulk lead being sometimes awkward to find,
#8 shotgun pellets set in an epoxy monolith is suitable.

There is plenty of weight in it as is. I do have access to bulk lead though - there is a wreck near home that people fish on and lose their sinkers, I dive on it and collect them all...
