Fellow Ice Carvers,
 
 Last week we competed in Fort saint John Canada (NorthEast of Vancouver).  There were 2 events- a single block & a 12 block event.  We met some very nice & talented people on this trip.
 
 
 
 
Follow this link to see more photos from the single block event. We were given 2 hours to carve.
 
Next weeks email will have photos from the 12 block event.
 
During some experimentation,  I figured out how to carve small double sided lenses,  here is a photo of one- (notice how it focuses the light)
