Hi all !
:frflag:
Thanks to JJ, who told me about this forum...
I've been doing woodcarving for a while, and trying to make it my job since last year, with my doubts & hope.
I like to try new techniques and help if I can, and 'd like to share our experience.
See ya next post !
check out my blog : johan-roudy.overblog.com
Welcome to the forum. I look forward to seeing your work. Good luck with making woodwork your career. Whereabouts in France do you live.
Cheers.

I'm located in south of France. Near... well in the middle of nowhere, lost in the woods.
Aurillac and Rodez are the nearest cities.
Welcome to the forum
G'Day & Welcome "DownUnder" "JJ",
There are quite a few blokes from France on the forum.
You'll find a heap of helpful & knowledgeable blokes & ladies on the forum and for most very willing to assist.
Thank you for the photos showing off your handiwork as everyone loves a photo, especially WIP photos with build notes.
Enjoy the forum.
Enjoy your woodworking.
Cheers from "On Top DownUnder" crowie

Good to see you on here Chip. I am trying to make out who you are on where I recommended you from? I have done so for several folks.. I think, that if we keep on going this way, we will be able to have a coo and the French ex-pats vill rule ze vorld :oo: Sorry, got a bit carried avay zere?
Not too sure where Crowie got the JJ from on his welcome to you though?? Probably too many tinnies?:o I'm lucky I suppose because I never make mastikes when I am tryping :?
Hey, Chip put that pretty little french Flag on his post....
that's got to count as a picture of sorts......
I know I had no idea how to do that much on a first post and was always in trouble from the mods for doing the something wrong.....
Blame the ABI.....
Cheers, crowie....
PS - Still like to see some real photos of Chip's handiwork......

Can I just say though that although the cross is commonly known as the Cathar or Occitane cross it is actually the cross of the Counts of Toulouse :D :D And a great favourite of mine. You have done a lovely job of that one :2tsup:
I love the history of this part of France. Here's a small bit about Occitanie and Toulouse (as an aside, I live in Avenue d'Occitanie..)
The Counts of Toulouse and the Cross of Toulouse.
And I I live in Albi, not far from Toulouse :D
Jean-Jacques (JJF)
Welcome
We haven't been to Albi yet Jean-Jacques, but intend to this year, we hope. You certainly have a lovely huge cathedrial there and we want to have a look at it and the cité.
If you get down this way, give me a yell and we may be able to meet for a coffee?
Albi's Cathedral is magnifique, I love it, and the old streets are very pittoresque.
