Preparing Rasp-berry

In just two Sundays from now we will be racing our cars down a high track. I’ve chosen the name “Rasp-berry” because later today, after class, I will use a couple of rasps that you see in the picture. Up until now I’ve only used a scroll saw and a lot with my dremel tool. Yet I had come to a spot I felt I would butcher my “baby” elephant. The Royal Ranger leader showed me these treasures. I am confident within the next few days my car will begin to be even more detailed 🙂 However , I think Rasp- berry looks as scared as I am about this race!

Carving

What started as a block of wood and a bunch of faith, I began because I saw the image in there. Yet , he looked so underfed. When I added extra wood for his ears and tummy , I lost sight of him and panicked. A dear friend encouraged me to be obedient and to keep working. Sure enough, he started to appear 🙂 I’m looking for a name for him. Any suggestions? March 9, 2014 is the big race day 🙂
