Hi Sven,this is a different and very interesting pic,showing this young lady working the wood in a very professional way, a job that will disappear but always a great tradition of this region. Have a nice week and thanks,Luciano

Dear Sven,

It's a work, which requires patience. On the other hand, the result must be stunning, when its finished. A nice oldie from your archives.

Best Wishes,
Gy.
