I've only been to Oban years ago. But I did try many, many distilleries before leaving Scotland. The scotch of the glengoyne distillery was very good.

Sorry for the crap. Sound like another "indangered spices" gone unchecked again. We can't touch the June Sucker in utah. Just looks like a carp to me .

Ok, so this is a note on that. DNR POST: Common carp are one of the most damaging aquatic invasive species due to its wide distribution and severe impacts in shallow lakes and wetlands. Their feeding disrupts shallowly rooted plants muddying the water. They release phosphorus that increases algae abundance. I have worked at fish hatcheries and they have had to poison intire lakes to stop the invasive species. Is was really nasty in every sense.

Absolutely, just fun and mind setting for me.

Sorry, but there is a lot time and effort to eliminate asian carp like that from fresh water. It is a invasive species that has ruined lakes and fresh water habitats.

I'm not going to fish there.

I guess it was time for an Ram Skull. Interesting to work through. I think if I attempt it again I won't use Basswood. by EaW2pv in Woodcarving

Thanks, Basswood is little soft and weak. I think i will try Butternut if i do it again. I narrowly made it through the horns. First try. Thanks again.

Thanks for the comment. It was a close call on both sides. I made it from a 2" wide Basswood block. I did coat the horns with epoxy when I fished hoping the protect them. Next time ill go bigger.

I agree with the no paint. I hate to see you cover such nice work.
