Hi Mary, Since you started my journey in relief carving about a year ago, I now and then have to come back for a visit. It has become one of my great loves, second only to music (outside my family of course). I have done much practicing this year and have collected a nice selection of Pfeil chisels. I finally needed a case to carry them in, so I built one. It's my latest video. I then realized that a carving chisel case needs a carving on it lol! So I carved my Bird Logo on it, my first keeper carving. And it's all because of you. Your love for the craft is so infectious! I have spent many happy hours "making chips" because of you. I love you Mary May!!

Hobby yes, are you a wood worker? I'm 63, I learned long ago hobbies are sometimes fruitless, now I'm not degrading hobbies by any means, but carving requires a good eye to see the finished product before you even begin to lay a tool to the woods surface, think of it the way a painter would think, and see the way they see, they simply either put shapes together, or, just remove what doesn't need to be there. This way if you try your hand at wood carving and aren't that successful, you can remember to see in your minds eye the how to's and not become discouraged. That way if you don't really want to carve, you won't have laid out that much cash. Best to you.

The flower has many strong emotional feelings for the people of Switzerland, Austria and Germany. Although I'm none of the above, for complicated reasons, I have a few emotional feelings for the flower myself. I can almost vision it carved and I get goosebumps thinking about.Don

Hi Mary, I just started carving wood in Charleston and have access to lots of free wood from where I work. I have been experimenting with live oak and sycamore (just because we have some lying around outside right now) but both are very hard and difficult to carve. I'd like to find some softer woods that i can push a chisel through with my hand - like i see you do here on basswood. Any suggestions?
@marymay155
10 жыл бұрын
Basswood is a good one to start with, but you won't find anything in Charleston. There are not many local woods that are good to carve. The next wood that I like is mahogany, and then walnut. Again, not very available here. Some people like poplar, but it is too spongy for me. Oak is definitely not something you want to start out with, unless you want to be a frustrated carver! So, the bottom line is, really good carving wood will need to be located from specialty hardwood suppliers, or have the wood shipped in.

I love working with pine as it is very soft and fun to use with sharp tools. I started to love carving while making a flower on top of it. I have a simple question for you. What can be done for the remaining part surrounding the initial carving especially the part you have taken out in first place?its quite rough and uneven. Please give me a tip on this. :)
@marymay155

Quite often, I leave this area with tool marks to off-set the design. If you don't want this, take a flatter gouge (like a #3, 14mm and smooth over the rough tool marks and blend it into the surface of the wood. You can also lower the entire background flat. This is a lot of work, though, and can often be difficult to get a very flat surface.
