Seems most of the sculptures Im working on right now are smaller than a quarter.
Here is an example with this California Fire Agate bee in the works. Only his right wing is showing in this picture as size example. The wings still need to be attached, so it looks a bit like this still yet. Hopefully it will improve in time, and I wont snap a wing trying to put it all together. I think Im going to forward a few of the bigger projects I have in the works, and give my fingers a break.......hehe Have to love the challenge though right? -------------------- Education is the key to the future,

Here is a webcam shot of the proto type flex shaft mounting bracket. So far it seems to be working well to help lessen the stress of holding the whip in hand.
This bracket is adjustable so the shaft/bit can be angled or straight up and down. As you can see the drip system has been refitted with a smaller copper tube as well, enabling more pin point location of the drip to moisten the stone and bit during work. Next we'll be testing out some new home made brush accessories to carry the pre polish and polish stages through more effeciently. Nice work honey, can't wait to see that guitar and the bird in amazonite finished out. Are they done yet? -------------------- CP-Owner/Administrator

Nice work honey, can't wait to see that guitar and the bird in amazonite finished out. Are they done yet? You talking about this bird Dan? I have been smoothing out all its rough edges getting it ready to do the detailed work (feathers) on the wings. I love the sheen Colorado Amazonite has!! The whole bird has it when you move it around. Here are 2 pictures so you can get an idea of how sheeny it is. Speaking of seeing projects finished out Dan ...........Hows that Arizona perified wood sculpting coming along? Im sure everyone would love to see it. -------------------- Education is the key to the future,
