Welcome to my blog for

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. I carve under the name Hal Papan. Hal's email is hal2009@att.net.

A Red Oak leaf motif surrounds the top 26" of the stick. I traced red oak leaves and carved them into the inner bark. . The wood spirit peeks out from a 5.5" Red Oak leaf carving.
I used a Minwax natural stain covered with 5 coats polyurethane and a hard finishing wax.
