Bill Payne's prowess as a wood-carver is legendary. When it comes to tackling woods known as difficult to carve, Bill is fearless. His interest in wood carving evolved when, as a Cub Scout leader in 1975, he taught and supervised Webelos on how to carve neck scarf holders to earn merit badges. All these years later, this award-winning woodcarver is still at it, constantly perfecting his artistic skills. Bill's favorite carving categories are fish and animals. Put a stick of wood in front of this retired American Airlines power plant engineer, and in very short order, he will produce a fine carving from any type of wood.
