   Hi Gavin,
   I posted a few more pictures. Ian Norbury's book 'Projects for Creative Woodcarving'has three pages on how to make this carving. In my version the figure is about 220mm high.

   The chain is an old carvers trick - if you want to win a beer, bet your mate that you can make a piece of wood longer without joining any extra pieces on and get carving!
   cheers
   Simon

   Thanks,Simon the extra photos give a better sense of how good the carving is, the folds in the jacket are really well carved. I have done a bit of chain and ball/ball in a cage for fun but this is quality carving

   Especially from the angle of the third picture.
