Big chunk of oak, what shall I carve out of it?
I've rescued a lump of oak from the w*rkshop today that seemed too good to go on the fire; it's 21" wide, 15" high and 5.5" thick. It's semi-green and the grain goes roughly from top to bottom, although there is a ginormous knot in it that makes a nonsense of any talk of grain direction 
. Im fancying carving a T-rex skull out of it, in keeping with my other interests, but I'm open to other suggestions. It can't be anything too delicate as it will doubtless crack like buggery as it dries. The missis says it can't be a big-titted woman, either. 
I'll post a "w*rk in progress" blog of it, if anyone's remotely interested.

How about a tree?
Then some artistic t*sspot can come along and critically acclaim its symobolism of mother nature
Ball ***** I say.......
....that would be my second carving proposal

Bloody hell Suresh! 
Anyway, back on topic before Puff sends this to Muppets. God, you lot are even worse for derailing threads.
So we have:
Dinosaur head
Fish
Owl
Big *****
Big *****
Tree
Big *****
Spoiler
I'm sensing a themed response.

Honeslty though, I think you should carve an acorn to symbolise where your piece of oak came from...

I think the concept of him sanding down, shaping and running his hands over what he considers perfect to fill Karl's sagging slacks, is making him a bit too excited
