Made this trunk 48 years ago for my Niece who was a Newborn, Now back then I always wondered how Beer kegs were made so I gave it a shot, not that I wanted a Keg so much as I wanted to figure out how they did it with just a Jack plane & a actual Hammer & No machinery, so I made it all hand done Mortise & Tenons no screws or fasteners.. Years later while putting in 3 stores thru-out the USA ,& last one being in Philadelphia so I took the truck up to Attleboro Still Rocks & found it in the cellar of my sisters house in 3-feet of water with the trunk full of old clothes but it was floating with not a single drop of water in it. I was pi**ed off that the work I did on this piece was so not respected I took it back home to Ca. & just rough sanded it to give it the Character it had been thru. it is now one of my favorite pieces who will go to one of my grand kids who will respect it. I love this little trunk all solid Cedar interior & Red Oak out of northern Michigan....

Well he's coming along, I have to admit this is the first time I have decided to use Sandpaper. ALL of my other carvings have been Knife-Cut alone, no files no paper.. Just extra sharp knives... But this guy I want "Detail" like I have been trying to get thru just knives & have never got the wrinkles & folds of clothing like I wanted. So I have broken my own protocol on making them come out like I want. So I am cutting my own Dremel cutters & sanding bits to get contours. Completely different than "Any" other carvings that I have done.
I also wanted to mention that since being such a novice & all my life have wanted to Carve Caricatures, I realized where did this come from... Well as a little kid on Lindsey St. there was an older Man / Friend of the Family like many of you too his name was "Phil Krakowski" who also lived on Lindsey St. He was always such a Great Man. He carved the "GI Joe" for Hasbro in the early 60's. He also Carved every Presidential Bust from "Roosevelt to Reagon" Many are still in the "White House" after being requested by Presidential Staff. He made more than a dozen appearances on the Johnny Carson Show. I was lucky enough to know him well enough for him to invite me to his home several times to see many of His Caricatures & it was an Honor. He was a Quiet but very well-known man from Attleboro who did not Pat himself on his own back, a Very Humble Man. In any case My carving interest just Had to come from this. He WAS a "Master Carver".
BTW the reason this carves head is covered with masking Tape is I keep breaking the Brim of his hat so the Only way to glue it back & Clamp-it is with Tape, just another reason why you have to plan your carve. & I am making Trumps Face just as close to the picture as I can you will know it is him. ohh the "Suspense" lol... If I was feeling better & able to carve the hours I used to, I was this guy would be done, But just the same it is giving me time to think things thru to do the Best job I can. Soon.... He WILL be done well Before his inauguration...
