Apogee, I'm rather shocked that Ron doesn't seem to know that he's got a
bonafide Chupacabra on his hands, aren't you?

Gunkie, what a cool birthday gift for your daughter and son!!! .. .
Looks like a nice hang for a backyard summer campout.
i need to hang around a carpenter to learn some basics ..i so admire people who can build things with their hands...

Well, I finally finished our kitchen. We kind of went over-budget so the
little lady didn't get her stainless appliances...

end result Apogee,,,
the mannikin carved from the 3d reference of frozen in place parts. Maches and clays were then used to detail the muscle groups - and features of the skull such as sygomatic arches maciter muscles,,eye lids etc..The mates of hips to body, shoulders to body etc were all sculpted in a mache of sorts.
but i do see the resemblance of the chupacabra in the first pic i posted!

I guess this is on a different level than some of the stuff being shown here, but I am pretty pleased with these two, my most recent chalkbags. I am also going to make a handbag version for myself today, probably using the Sierra Stripe material. It will be slightly larger than the chalkbags, with a short handle instead of belt loops, and a printed cotton fabric for lining instead of fleece.
And the other thing I am working on is the trail crew at the Gunks, where we are in the process of redoing the access trail for the Mac Wall. Here's me pulling one of the stones into place last weekend:

FYI - I just noticed I am flanked by not one, but two, of the original Vulgarians in that picture - Al DiMaria and Claude Suhl. One of the perks of doing trailwork is hearing the stories of BITD, not only Gunks history, but plenty of general climbing, as those guys were out and at it.

At least they'll have some nice bits and pieces to sell off when they go out of business because June Mountain is closing.
Edit: Ha ha! Those poor poor June Lakers are really suffering.
The Victory Lodge "Trophy Estate" is for sale for a mere $14.9 million.

Just got a call telling me that the episode of "Million Dollar Rooms", featuring my work on Victory Lodge, will actually air at 11 p.m. Pacific time tonight, not 8, as previously reported.

Last week I had made those two chalkbags and liked the material so much I decided to design a handbag for myself. It didn't turn out perfectly(or as perfect as I do, which is technically quite imperfect) - maybe I should have sampled with a less precious fabric... At any rate, I like the design, it is perfect for stowing in the travel bag for a road trip rest day into town.

Cragman, I saw the show- nice work! Ten and a half months just on the casino room?
Did you sleep there? Or were you playing with the choo-choo train all the time? ;-)
Seriously, that place didn't cost $25KK, now, did it?
