Hats off to you guys that make this point look so well. This is my first Pine Tree. It has been a hard point for me. My stem didn't want to expand & the serrations played hell on me. My edges are off slightly.

Here's my attempt. I've been really busy lately, and only able to watch what you all have been postin (which has been awesome!) Some georgeous first tries and then there's Shannon... Keep up the good work guys! Soon as I got home last night I ran to the garage and stole an hour or so, busted up my first try and ended up keeping this one together.
