I've been carving eating utensils for a little bit while I'm out and honestly its been pretty helpful. I think a lot of you might find this article helpful about how to properly carve wood: Whittling: An All-Inclusive Guide - Best Wood Carving Tools Stumbled across the article and even found a Mora carving knife on the website I'm going to bring with me next time.
Thankyou for the link, it is a good prepping resource. And also....welcome to the monkey tree...I'm sure that you will find appreciative whittlers and carvers in other branches of the tree too.
I think that's how the extinct branch of a family tree comes to be....reproductive potential is just that...potential. I think the guy with the saw, and the guy next to him are both barking mad. Thanks for the laughs kell, they were needed.
