Horsing around with the die grinder

About 50 minutes with the die grinder got rid of all the seams, and roughed out the basic shape. I also flattened out the bottom of the head and glued it onto the base plate. The Precision Board carves so easy and yet is plenty strong. I love it!
I’ll study it a bit before I carve in the woodgrain and add a little more detail with some sculpting epoxy. We have to remember this is just the post topper. There is no sense if getting carried away and going crazy with detail that would only be lost in the overall picture.
Stay tuned with a few more pics later today.  This thing is so fun I’m having trouble setting it down. But there is other work to be done today too.  🙂
