Frostie looks to be a nicely "spooled" project, as well!!

I like the nose -- great job. You can keep the snow though -- snow and my part of Georgia just don't coalesce together very well.

Merry Christmas -- hope Santa brings you lots of turning toys.

Heya Chris,

Long time no post. That's a good looking boy you have there. Gonna make him a turner, too?

Nice work on the nose even if it is just a shameless kid picture posting. ;);)

The segmented piece is great... love the herringbone pattern. That gives me some ideas...
