That's really impressive.
Out of interest, the only antler I have seen consists of a spongy bone center; how do you get antler with a compact bone center?

[edit]Or is it because it's from the crown?[/edit]
 
got bored the other evening and thought ide have a go at antler carving,first off i cut off a crown from a red deer antler sourced from Exmoor last year,then after drawing out the design i drilled a couple of holes where needed and then set to it cutting by hand with a 2 inch piece of ultra fine fretsaw blade stuck in a piece of dowel for a handle,8 hours of cutting later i had this which will be a pendant i recon.
