Update on projects

In case I’ve forgotten to mention it before, but I’ve recently updated my site design. I’ve been using the same theme for a while and I thought it was time for a new one. So, I downloaded K2 and I looked up some styles for it. I found a pretty cool one called Curlz and Steph has edited the header and footer images for me using elements from my previous design. I think it looks good. It isn’t done all of the way yet, but it probably will be in the next couple of days.

So, I’ve updated my Projects page. I added the photos of one of the woodcarving projects I did, which I’ll also put below. It is called a Dalecarlian Horse, and there is a bunch of cool stuff that this wikipedia article will tell you about them. I’ll just let you look for yourself if you’re interested. Anyway, have a look at my projects page or just read below for the same stuff:

This is a Dalecarlian style horse I carved from basswood using instructions from a Swedish style woodcarving book I have. I made it as a gift for my mom for Christmas but just got around to uploading the pictures. I don’t think it’s too bad for a first attempt at this style of woodcarving. It is difficult because I don’t have a bandsaw to cut out the rough shape so I had to rough it out by hand from a block. Steph (my wife) did the fancy traditional paint job.
