Re: Celtic Cross

You can also do an image search on Google.
I also find a gazillion different Celtic crosses in the local cemetary.

Re: Celtic Cross

Oh my goodnee Mel. Almost went blind looking at that. Sure would go crazy if'n I'd carve it. Well, crazier than I be now,eh?

Re: Celtic Cross

I chip carve the two string cross that Mel refers to with a little more detail. It takes about 1 1/2 hrs. I get lots of practice because I do a couple hundred per yr.
