Kinda going slow but working on a chain in a box. Interesting concept as you have to keep the chain tight. Fun project, just getting started.

Amazing! You've already done more...than I could ever do. What's your knife & blade of choice?

That's really cool. I've done some chains but none like that. I really like that one. ___Dave

Thanks fellows. Hope I can get there with out any major break downs. ::handshake::
I have mostly used a Flex Cut so far. But also a 72 a little and a Case medium stockman a little. Mostly just the Flex Cut. ::handshake::

Finally got back to my chain in a box. I was having trouble separating the links as there was no room to get to them. Finally settled on a little piece of coping saw blade. (it helped me cope) Need to clean up the links some and the hearts. Maybe some type of wheel in the base. Nothing special but I have enjoyed it. Thanks for looking.

I'm always glad to help. ::handshake::

Awesome job! My brain can't even process doing that; although, I could probably pull off the giant molar, on top ::tu:: ::tu:: ::tu::

Thanks Skip. ::handshake::
And that shows my true whittling skills Doc. A heart that looks more like a molar. I may just go with molar and see what turns out. Thanks Doc. ::handshake::
TPK, they would all be old before I got through. ::tounge::

That turned out nice. ::tu:: It must have took a lot of patience to carve.
To bad we live so far apart or I'd come over and have you show me how to whittle out a chain. I have a piece cut in a + shape but I think it's to small for my first try at one.

By the way...I did know that was a heart...It's just that I'd do better at carving a molar ::nod::

Doug, I wish we could get together too. I've seen your work, I could learn a lot from you. Just a regular chain is not real difficult with your abilities. Just jump on it and do it. I saw one a fellow carved out of a match stick so yours isn't too small. I look forward to seeing it. ::nod:: ::nod:: ::handshake::

To be honest with you Doc it does look like a tooth. Usually after I whittle something, I wait for folks to tell me what it looks like and that's what I say it is. ::nod:: ::handshake::
