I have been told by many people over that 'quickwood' is the only way to go for repairing on carvings. Can't find the stuff. Not at my friendly neighborhood Menards or Home Depot. Any suggestions? Thanks -- Pam

Re: Quickwood?
Pamela,
I know just the stuff you are looking for I aquired some of it just last month. The product is called 'Raycrete' the original multimender. I had a carving that was about four feet tall and had developed a huge crack right through the centre of the eye and forehead and had gone the whole length of the carving. I purchased the two bottles one green and the other red they are sold as a pair for about $24 Canadian so I would guess about $15 US. It is incredible stuff, you mix them both together in equal amounts and then pour it into the crack or hole. It runs into even the smallest crack and then it starts to set up. You can carve it as it dry's and then when it is finally set up you can sand it paint it what ever. You can actually start carving into it in under half and hour of pouring. It is very strong and doesnt shrink. It is the best I have seen and has no harmful vapors. I highly recommend it. You can check it out on line just by typing in the name Raecrete. Good luck let me know if it works for you. ColinComment

Re: Quickwood?
Pamela,
You can order it from woodcraft or most stores that handle carving equipment.
You will see more about how this stuff works on page 2 Shedding Antlers.

don’t meet other guidelines. We are still 75 and over or health care workers I believe. My husband is in health care, so he has now gotten both of his shots. At this rate, I figure I will be doing good if I get sometime this summer. 
Glad hubby got his, figure he was my biggest...
