cowboywc,

I couldn't agree more with everyone else's comments here and you have every right to be very proud of yourself and your students work.

I'm just amazed at the details of both projects!  Makes me wish, I had done my apprenticeship a bit further west Professor CowboyWC!   ;D ;D ;D

True Works Of Art!

I'm just curious as to how long it took for your students to make them?

Howdy WC,

Please forgive me. I don't know how I missed this topic. All I can say is if I lived out your way, being one of your students would be a real privilege and a top priority for me. You do an outstanding job of passing on your talents!
You need to learn to like all the little everday things like a sip of good whiskey, a soft bed, a glass of buttermilk,  and a feisty old gentleman like myself

Here is another project done by one of my long time students Sandi, who also runs the store for me.
She bought the new shoes and took off the phoney leather, used it for a pattern and carved the new tops. She also removed the inner sole and added padding and a new inner sole.

WOW! Sandie you are the BOMB! I should have had you carve the roses on that guitar strap I sent down there. What an awesome job of carving as well as all other aspects of the build.

So is that rose design freehand? I wish I had seen that before doing the guitar strap!

You have every right to be proud of your students WC

Sandi said the leaves came from a George Hurst pattern, she can't remember where the rose pattern came from.
