ok first let me say i am not a woodcarver.
have tried my hand a few times, made a few spoons etc.
but it is not a skill i have mastered by any means...
i know there are some wood carvers on here
and i would enjoy seeing pix of yr work.
hated to take over mcginnis6010's thread showing his erc work, so thought id start another thread-
hope ya'll dont mind and certainly hope yall will post some examples of wood carving.
and hand tools used too!
thanks
here is my last attempt at making a spoon and a spatula for a holiday gift
wood is walnut
