Welcome to Issue 1 of Year 15 of Woodcarver Online Magazine.

Hello carving friends -

Well here we are, with the first issue of YEAR 15 - in which we're continue to work to bring you the best in the carving world, always available and always free.

Well, the WOM Mint Tin Carving Contest is history. I lugged all of the submissions down to Artistry in Wood, where they were judged by a crack four person team of judges. The winners are announced elsewhere in this issue.

Also in this issue:

The 2010 CCA Caricature Carving Competition - where some of the best in the country compete

Ron Ramsey's writes about his wonderful carving of the Sierra Nevada Brewery Logo

Pete LeClair's Stan

"Ol' Don's" Drawing Table - "Yo-Ho-Ho And A Bottle Of Rum"

Events, Happenin's and Going's-on

As always - enjoy!
