As my stick making skills improve I am tempted to go back on some of my previously made pieces (I have on a couple) and make some improvements on the carving or the finish.
Am I alone in this obsession or is it a common occurrence among stick makers?
An accomplished wood carver at a show I attended suggested leaving your work alone. He said, and I quote, "Don't mess with your early work. Look at it a year later and if it hasn't improved, you have no talent. Time to try a different hobby."
What do you guys and gals think?
