Hi, Ray,
In 1998, when I took a 3 month carving course, carving a Hooded Merganser, I sure didn’t think I would get so involved. As I mentioned in my Biography, it won a second place award at the Novice Level and that got me really interested.

The only problem is that when I get carving, I lose track of time and at my age time becomes precious. I really enjoy it, so I guess I will continue until I am unable to carve any longer.
Thanks for the complementary comments.
Reg

Just BEAUTIFUL work, Reg.
It is sure nice, eh, to find an activity one enjoys at this stage in life. I’ve found the same with my music and “hobby” farming. Lots of fiddling and veggies.
All the best to you and Norma.
Ray

Thanks, Gary for your encouragement and praise. I haven’t been back since coming to Kingston, but Norma has been back several times by train. If you ever come this way please get in touch

Cheers,

Thanks Mark for your flattery and encouragement, I am presently carving a pair of American Goldfinches placed on a Meadow Willow Branch. The Multi FlexArm – Soldering Station will come in handy for making this branch, as it will contain about 70 leaves.
Yes, David does an excellent website, with 14 years experience, he is known in the website environment as one of the best in Halifax.

I did all the loading and learned a great deal doing it. Then on Friday, we were on ( Teamviewer ) it is a piece of software that allows two people to view each others actions simultaneously. He took me through all the steps, so that I can load,unload,update etc. I still have to consult David when I get baffled.

Regards,
Reg

Reg,
Thanks for keeping me in the loop.
The site is a wonderful. Visually stimulating, uncluttered and simplistic with the right amount of information allowing the viewer to get to where they want to go.
Perhaps I should contact your son to set up a site for me. Something I am hoping to do this year.
Nice work on the Flex Arms! You are the man!
I will forward this site to the people who were interested in your work from the charity event that you so graciously participated in.
I will look forward to seeing updates. The bird I bought is proudly displayed in my office.
Congratulations on the site and I hope that it brings you many requests for commissions, sales, and keeps you busy in pursuing your passion for perfection in creating our feathered friends.
Sincerely,
Mark Fisher
