    Does anyone know a good video tutorial for sharpening woodcarving tools?

    Posted: 03 Nov 2020 10:21 AM PST

    I bought my first woodcarving set off Amazon, but they need to be sharpened and I am very worried about doing it wrong and ruining my brand new tools before I even get to use them. Does anyone know of a good, thorough video tutorial that shows the proper way to sharpen my tools?

    How do I seal my project but keep the smooth wood texture?

    Posted: 03 Nov 2020 05:36 AM PST

    I have a piece of wood (birch, from the core of a green branch) and I'm carving something out of it. I really want it to keep it's natural smooth wood feel, instead of the almost plastic varnished finish. But it is fresh wood, and I'm worried about rot or cracking over time. Especially since I want to stain and paint parts of it using natural resources.

    Looking for advice/help with a wooden sign with epoxy inlay

    Posted: 02 Nov 2020 09:21 PM PST

    So for Christmas this year I would like to make my boyfriend a wooden sign with epoxy inlaid letters. I'm starting the process early because I know there's going to be a learning curve here and I want time to work out all the kinks/practice some techniques before crafting the final product

    I have some experience with basic carpentry, basic woodcarving, and done some finishing work (a couple of dining room tables). But I've never done this type of project. I have a few specific questions, but I'm also just open to any advice that anyone has for me!

    The general look I'm going for is a wooden sign (I think I'm going either walnut or maple) stained very dark, with red lettering, some gold and dark blue accents, finished with glossy poly.

    Questions-

    • I know the rough order of operations is: shape wood, carve letters, pour epoxy, cure, sand, finish. But, if I want to stain the wood do I need to do that before pouring the epoxy? Tape over the epoxy? Will the stain affect the epoxy?
    • If I'm doing different colors of epoxy does it make sense to do one color at a time and let it cure in between or pour all colors at once and have it cure once? Or does it not matter?
    • Does anyone have a certain epoxy/resin that they recommend for this sort of project? Looking for one that is hopefully on the cheaper side, as I know I need to practice a few times. Same goes for dye for the epoxy- what's your favorite? I'm looking for really bold colors, especially hopeful to find a very bright gold.

    Thank you and I appreciate any advice!
