Very nice fish indeed, although i still have a thing for the barbel! I can't decide!

Either way, i'd carve a nice lightly scaled mirror, I love the really dark colours in some of them, that could easily be compared to the colour of oak.

Or failing that, dare i say...an impreza?!

Carve a pillow out of it, then sleep on it and hope to dream up a suggestion by the morning.

Enough of the ****** / *****.

Splinters could be a real problem though

Good point, but the grain goes all ovver 't' oil - the general trend is from top to bottom. I'm going to do that bit in bas-relief, I think.
