It is all about carving - tips and techniques, works in progress, completed projects, how to instructions, and future plans.
Note that Phaal Nap (Fail Nap) is a pseudonym, nom de plume, and anagram for Hal Papan. I usually write when I can't sleep. Ergo, Fail Nap. Of course, Hal Papan is my nom de couteau (knife name instead of pen name) and anagram for my real name, Alan Happ.

Yesterday, I gave an example of a spirit jumping out of the wood. Elvis was a tribute to the king. An otherwise unremarkable stick except that it was a princely 62 inches tall. The carving is about 5 in. tall.
Elvis left my building on Dec. 20, 2011 and now resides in NY, USA.
