St Agnes Parish Crucifix Post #2
I usually draw my profiles on the wood and head over to the band saw and start cutting. However this will not work with this carving due to the size. So after I drew the profile on the wood I used the hand saw and made many cuts to the profile lines. This allows me to use my gouge across the grain of the wood to remove a lot of wood in a short period of time.
Also used the hand saw cut out around the legs. Boy my arms where tired that day!
