Hare Krishna

PAMHO,

Maharaja, a desire in my heart is getting bigger: I would like to create (i.e cast or carve wooden) deities and then ask Krishna for reside in my home in arca form, but I don´t really know if this is appropiate. I chant 16 rounds since December 2018. I live with my wife and son (one year old) and We are trying to practice Krishna consciousness at home (Santiago de Chile). These are the questions:

1.- Is appropiate for me to create deities? Why?

2.- If the previous question has affirmative answer, then I would like to know if sastra says something about proportions, forms, materials, etc. Data for the ways of fabrication (if it can be called like that).

3.- Why is it said that different deities have different percentages of mercy, for instance, Goura-Nitay 100% but other lower levels, at the end is the same Krishna with different companion and forms, isn't he?

4.- Home deities should be installed in some way as temple deities?

5.- What's the difference with temple and home deities?

Thank you.
