Patriotic Biker Guy

Post by Doc B »

Recently, I had texted,my sister, a picture of my last carving "Patriotic Pooch". She showed it to her husband and later texted back, that he had said that they needed one. I texted back, that I'be glad to do one, it took 30 hours and that I billed at the going rate of a dentist. These are the kind of things you say to your sister. Her husband is an avid Harley fan and owner. They frequently go riding with a Harley group, around DFW. Anyway...that's the inspiration behind Patriotic Biker Guy. I'll gift it to them, next time I see them. I'm getting a bit quicker. This guy only took 17 hours. I'll let her know it's almost half price of Patriotic Pooch...cause those are the kind of things you say to your sister.

If you click on the pictures, they will appear upright.
