Early xmas tree carves

[abercarver]

Knocked up a few xmas trees (Early i know)

 

First attempts but got through them pretty quickly. Also gave me chance to try out my new Husqvarna FM Ear Defenders. Making the job much more fun. Although the punters probably thought i was slightly odd rocking out.

Like the walnut whip one on the left. Is it a spiral all the way down. Never too early for xmas preparations. BUT have you got the Halloween stuff done yet, I'm still working on my pumpkins etc.

[abercarver]

Yeah i tried a spiral effect and a few rings around. (quick and easy and people seem to love them)

I dont really carve much for Halloween, never too sure on what to carve up. Like most people say, before you know it, its xmas, so thought id getting in there early. like many retailers. :-)

where did you get the head phone from? nice trees,,,,

Trees are really cool. There looks to be a bit of work in them. How much do you sell them for?

Maybe you'd rather keep that to yourself for now!

Did one of tehse today after spending 2 days demonstrating at Satrosphere in Aberdeen. Have a few ideas for how to make mine better as the first was a bit ropey

[abercarver]

The Ear Defenders you can pick up from most places (Amazon, Ebay etc) I always think you pay for what you get in many respects.

 

These are the first iv produced so seeing how they go cost wise. I could do 100s cheap or fewer at a higher price so it all depends i guess on the timber you have and time to knock them up.

 

Im just working on the base, iv left these natural, as there quicker to do and look more rustic which some people like. May stick with this or produce a more 'truck' shaped base.

 

Will have to see how they go down....
