    Beavercraft opinions?

    Posted: 10 May 2020 04:58 AM PDT

    I am looking to get into spoon carving and whittling, I saw that beavercraft stuff on Amazon and was wondering how good they are.

    The main reason I ask is because the more I look them up the more it seems like a lot of stuff about them seems "planted". I see a lot of the same titled reviews for their products all highly rated from what all seem like different variations of "bestwoodtools.com" or something along that name for the site.

    Does anyone have any experience with their products and are they ok for a beginner?

    Where to buy wood for carving?

    Posted: 09 May 2020 11:32 PM PDT

    Hi - I bought a beginner wood carving set for my nephew and it was a huge hit. The problem is I haven't been able find any reasonable wood blanks to go with it. The craft stores (Michael's, HobbyLobby, etc.) sell basswood blanks, but the pieces are small, the sizes are random, and the prices seem high for what you're getting. Can any of you recommend an online store (or a brick-and-mortar store in the Boston/southern NH area where there's more choice? Also, I was told that basswood is the best choice for beginning carvers. Are there other woods that you would recommend for someone just starting out? He's a very talented artist and cartoonist and loves birding and animals, so I imagine that (after some practice), he'll want to do figurines, birds, and animals, and he'll need bigger blanks than the ones in the craft stores. Thanks!

    Good Tool Sets

    Posted: 09 May 2020 07:53 PM PDT

    Hey Everyone, I'm a semi-novice to woodcarving (I used to do some moderate woodwork when I was in boy scouts, mainly with regards to construction though) and I'm looking for a tool set to get started with. I was hoping to find a set with just about all the tools I need for at or under $100. I plan to mainly carve masks. Wondering if the subreddit had any suggestions.

    Traditional carving and the use of a Dremel

    Posted: 10 May 2020 03:18 AM PDT

    Hey guys, I'm new to carving and got a lot of knives from my grandma (my grandpa used to carve a lot). I'm also exploring which tools other people use and I often read about Dremel. Doesn't this tool somehow dispirit the original carving with a knife? I don't want to offend anyone. I just want to know your opinion on whether you see it as an additional tool or as an replacement for carving knifes.

    I'm a bit afraid my grandpa would be somehow disappointed in heaven, seeing me avoiding a lot of sweat and using these tools instead.

    (Sorry for potential grammatical errors, English is not my mother language. And please don't feel offended, I just want to know your opinion)

    Thanks guys! :)

    (O.C)Got to do some work on this old man today

    Posted: 09 May 2020 07:03 PM PDT

    I made this little bloke, any advice to clean up the cuts, stop the "fraying" in the crevices, or prevent the basswood from splitting? It was good fun to do and I'm still a beginner, but it looks pretty raggedy! I'm using a random-brand Amazon knife (in the pic), and strop it often. Thanks!

    The back of a spoon I'm carving. Can anyone identify the wood species? Beautiful dark reddish, just like photo. It's pretty hard, but I don't have much to compare to. Thank you!
