THE THREE MINUTE OWL

 Here is the little owls that I do. The first year that I did them was 2005 when I had a problem(unknown at the time).. but I lost weight and no desire to do anything.. this lasted for 9 months with visits to my primary doctor every two to three weeks..and we would try something else for a couple of weeks..and on and on , until June of the following year. I did the JIM  RAHM style (type 1) and did around 1,400 . It was the only thing I carved during that time.
                                                 The JIN RAHM TYPE 3 MINUTE OWL
                                   I started making this take after a number of years THE TYPE 2
Jim only taught  eye to eye..and knife to wood...NO PATTERN.. years later a good friend of mine , John Lukens came up with this one and I used it in a class in Longview with the club as that were attending a LEWIS and CLARKE function in the park and wanted something to give to the kids
I used all scrap wood.. and cut to whatever size I could get out of it BUT nothing larger than 1/2 inch and  most of them smaller. IO never really use a pattern and only made a few pencil markings for the firs 25 or so.. since the wood was not always the same size it was faster just to  carve away with the knife.. Later I started to use a small V tool to do the claws and a small #11 to do the eyes.. as it was much quicker... ENJOY...

Over the years I have just carried them around in my pockets and given to almost everyone I encountered.. at the bank,store,doctors office, and car dealers .
Oh..the problem I had.. "it was from a blood thinner they had put me on."
so if you are on AGGRENOX and have a head problem(or headaches) STOP.
I called my doctor after talking to a friend.... and he said  "Stop for a week and then give me a call".. I skipped to pills and was up and running the next day..

  9. Laser engraving can improve the efficiency of engraving, make the surface smooth and smooth, rapidly reduce the temperature of the carved non-metal materials, and reduce the deformation and internal stress of the carved objects. It can be widely used in the field of a fine carving of various non-materials.

  10. Thanks for the nice pattern. I may try it on 1" stock, as I have a few blocks of that coming. Then, maybe I can get by with using a Swiss army knife. (with the small blade modified to wharncliffe)
