Our Lady Indian was created  for an unusual bar in Covington, Kentucky. There is a cigar store inside of the bar and they wanted a female Indian. She stands 6' tall, is made out of basswood and is colored with tinted stain, which gives her a nice soft look. She took 129 hours to make. The facial features are amazingly lifelike. She is a compliment to our carver who created her. She greets everyone who enters the cigar store.
Although we do not make gunstocks, we can do a wide variety of carvings on your present gun. It can be as simple as carving the customer's initials or carving it 100% with a wildlife scene or whatever the customer chooses. The gunstock shown here was carved for a local man._He presented this to his son when he graduated from high school. Having a carving on a gun is very unique and something a gun owner would be proud to display.

The Indian Story..
A gentleman from Nokomis, IL contacted us and asked if we could restore an Indian he had. He brought it to us and after examining it, we determined it was too badly weathered to restore it. He requested we make him one just like it. This is our finished product. He stands 7 feet tall. He is made out of basswood and he is standing tall in his town of Nokomis, IL.


This ferocious panther was created in 1997 for Western Middle School in Russiaville, IN. This was a donation from the First National Bank of Kokomo as part of it ongoing Partners in Education program with Western School Corp. The Panther is 6' tall and stalks the atrium of the school. The panther is made out of basswood and took approximately 172 hours to make. Kiln dried, rough lumber required hours of millwork to smooth and square the wood. The wood was then laminated together layer by layer and when the large block of wood was completed, a pattern was drawn on the wood and roughed out with a chainsaw and grinders. Then the hand- chiseling process began. Millwork takes up much of the time in our carvings. These pictures show the raw wood and the completed, painted, original creation.
