    Lots of holes !! The precision carving continues, I have pierced almost all of the holes in this first section of the project. Now I have to hand carve the rest of the tear drop away with knives and clean them all up smooth.

    You appear to be blessed with more patience AND creativity than the typical human! I’m looking forward to seeing the next installment.

    Glad to have you along Keith. I won't give the whole project away just yet, but you can see the lines where I'll be cutting the cylinder into two pieces they are drawn on the piece in the photos. Just a little bit more carving and I'll be cutting it apart, I'll make sure to take photos and give a detailed description of the process.

    Thank you John you are very kind, I try to share what I know and what I do. It's very nice when there are people that want to know and take the time to join in. I'm making fairly good progress and should be cutting the cylinder into two pieces in the next day or so, then it's on to the next phase of the build.

    My WIP continues to evolve: I have finished cutting the vast majority of the tear drop holes and have cleaned them up some what, more fine tuning yet to come. Then I have sliced the whole cylinder in half and cleaned it a bit as well. I have photos of me carving the V section and cutting the piece apart I will post those photos in just a bit.

    More and more intriguing.

    I'm curious about how you made the cut. A fine hand saw, some power tool, magical incantation?
