Tried a new technique for decorating my spoons tonight. I first relief-carved the dragon, then used a wood burner to make the dragon stand out.

In addition to wood carving and new banjos I also do luthier work. This Recording King resonator banjo had the peg head broken off. Fortunately it was a clean break and a fairly easy repair.
