CARVING AG'S

Dean,

I use Hairspray on the cut edges. MAKE SURE YOU DON'T HAVE A LIT CANDEL 
INSIDE WHEN YOU PUSH THAT BUTTON!!!!!! The AG'S are so big, they require 
a lot of light. I use a regular light bulb. Don't let it lay on the 
bottom or it will pop. You can also used colored bulbs for different 
effects. Small Strobe light also work good, You can pick them up for 
about twenty bucks.

Once carved, I keep them in the garage where it is cool and out of the 
sunlight. AG'S have a lot of water in them, I access the inside by 
cutting a whole in the back, not the top. I don't worry about cleaning 
the inside that much, I just get the seeds out and put a towel in the 
bottom to soak up the water then replace the back by using large nails 
or chopsticks to pin the back on.

Dry Ice works great but requires frequent replacing. You need a one 
burner, electric burner inside the pumpkin on a piece of wood. put a 
medium size pot of water on the burner and keep on low, the key is to 
keep the water warm and keep adding ice.

Dry Ice, Colored Light Bulbs or Strobes look awsome!!!!!!
