I'm selling a couple guns and gave blood today to save up to bid. It is awesome, thank you Chuck. This is got to be some sort of record for being finished....

Just curious. What type of tool do you use to whittle on that Ivory?

I've seen a picture of the finished trap. It is awesome. Looks just like the sample we worked from.

Very nice work on the trap. Do you work with old Elephant ivory much?

Nope, Oregon in its infinite wisdom has outlawed sale of all elephant ivory, no matter the age. I can carve someone else's ivory for them, as long as it is not to be resold. I do carve a lot of mammoth ivory.

Question, do you have to treat the ivory from handling through the production of the piece? Might be a trade secret as to what goes in to that?

Hope several rich trappers will bring lots of money and drink lots of alcohol the night of March 17 as the bidding starts!
