I think you've found a new pastime. Can't wait to see the next one!!

The small pieces where a bit better to sand now that all the skin has gone off my fingers and the bone is sanded to a fine point ::) .......Paul

I always get a great sence of accomplishment when I finish a piece. I hope you enjoy the same feeling. Thanks for sharing and I await your next creation. ;D
