Its that time of year here,.." Happy Halloween"
Happy Halloween, had some pumpkins out by the gate and now they are gone:monkey: guess someone needed them, hope they like mold, we carved em a week ago!
Nice carving Jerry. What saw did you use?
Have not got a chainsaw small enough yet to carve pumpkins, I like to use a knife we call a tomato knife, it has a 1/4 " wide blade that has serrations along both sides of the blade, blade is 4" long and has a slight curve on the end. I carve freehand just out of my head, just whatever comes to mind.

Happy Halloween Jerry!!!
Good job carving...good fun with the kids. This is the first time in 16 yrs I didn't carve. My daughter is in Costa Rica till the middle of Jan. Talked with her today and apparently they do not observe Halloween down there...she went to the market to get a pumkin to carve for her host family but they were all gone....they eat 'em.... who'd a thunk it????
I have to say, you're a punkin carvin fool! Those are very nice! I have to use the carving kits to make em that nice.

Less than ten mins spent on each, cleaning out the guts takes the most time.

why not get a pumpkin big enough instead. I forgot to get candy, but I'm pretty remote and not likely to get any ghouls or goblins tonight. Think I'll venture down and shut the gate all the same. that'll scare 'em
happy All Saints Eve.

Just down the road from me they grow them huge gourds, they hollow them out and paddle them across a lake, make a little annual race out of it. They could be carved with a chainsaw but what a mess to cleanup afterward, no thanks. LOL
