Wow, Bob. That is your best work yet IMO!

You are selling these at a yard sale? How long is that? (I wasn't sure whether those deck boards were 6" or 4")

40”x20”x2” solid white pine plank and this isn’t your everyday yard sale, just off rt28 and same weekend as a big craft fair. The owner bought an eagle off me and usually has this yard sale same weekend as the Barnstable fair and does $4000 in sales, but family stuff moved it this year, but he expects a ton of traffic. Won’t be giving these away or the 25 other carvings I’m bringing down.

GB just bought one of them, so down to one.

Tuna and 30 other carvings will be at a neighborhood yard sale a past customer holds every year. Address is 92 main st in Cotuit if your down cape this Saturday and want to swing by. To beat the traffic I will probably be set up well ahead of 8am.

I made two tuna and they both are spoken for from two of our own; GB and Rick Bomba. I traced both the striper and tuna outlines to make duplicates easier than trying to draw one from memory, my memory ain’t what it used to be.

Three of each sold quick and since I'm getting ready to do one more Sandwich Flea Market this coming Sunday, I had carved up a couple more fish wall hangers, in addition to a bunch of Halloween and Thanksgiving themed carvings.
