I worked on the beaver for a while but as I started to put in more of the detail it became apparent that because of the dry cracked nature of the surface, it was going to be very difficult to stop it breaking up as I carved it. Other members of the Guild also thought that it was going to be unlikely that a decent finish would be possible.
Also I realized that two faults which I had originally thought to be surface damage, were in fact caused by large embedded nails.
I decided to find an alternative which would be more satisfactory.
