You guys ever post a picture of a duck and have everyone carve one say over a months period? Then maybe the winner picks the new pose? Here is one I think we should do. I took this last friday and thought it would be interesting to see everyones approach to do it.  |

I'll probably do it someday, but I'm just buried right now. Here is what the shop looks like this morning, there are 47 decoys in the pictures. It gets kind of hard to do something that isn't already sold, but most clients allow me to be about as creative as I want to be.   |

That's what production foamer making looks like! Love that drying rack with the fan mounted on it. Those box fans also make nice cheap air filters when you add a furnace filter to them  -edit- just noticed you have one built into a box, is that what funnels your foam towards your dust collector? |

I noticed that picture the other day and chuckled when I saw this post Don. I agree, there's not much you haven't carved when it comes to waterfowl. I think I'll hold off on that pose for a few years...

That's park duck is a beaut! That neck ring is huge and also interesting the way he's holding his wings low in the back and exposing so much of the black body feathers. Cool standard but "odd" pose.
