    Wood carving kit for a total beginner

    Posted: 11 Dec 2020 03:41 AM PST

    Hello!

    I would like to get advice on which carving kit I could buy for a friend who I think would enjoy wood carving. i hope I came to the right subreddit if not I apologize.

    He has never tried it before, and I honestly have no idea what kind of kit I should get. Since I'm a student my budget isn't that high and I'd like to keep it under 20€ if possible. We live in France if this can help (◍•ᴗ•◍).

    Thank you very much! Have a nice day!

    First and second project comparison

    Posted: 10 Dec 2020 06:41 PM PST

    I present this first project of my friend Javi, who is finishing studying carpentry. He has been studying for two years, and is very interested in design. What advice do you have for him? What do you think of his style and initiative? Thank you for your attention.

    Noob-esque Question here. How do you cut through endgrain besides alcohol+water?

    Posted: 11 Dec 2020 06:51 AM PST

    I've previously worked on smaller projects where cutting through endgrain wasn't too much of a big deal. I've moved up to a larger piece of wood (ran out of my smaller blocks and figured I wanted to challenge myself anyway) and found end grain very difficult and tedious to work through.

    I dap little portions of it with water and work fast to keep swelling at bay but found it to work minimally (I can get a few shavings off before having to reapply water).

    My sole tool has been an opinel no 6 (I have small hands and it fits my grip well while giving me good control of the blade). I keep it sharp as possible (hair whittling). I don't know if it matters much but I have linseed/flaxseed oil, a lot of sand paper and beeswax.

    Do you have any techniques to help working with end grain?

    ​

    EDIT: I'm using basswood and was wondering if a coping saw might help.

    What should I carve this into?

    A face carved from a Rocky Mountain Juniper tree, Front and Back. I really like the natural red color in the center. ME, 2020

    Beginner needs help... SURPRISE!

    Hey guys just joined. I picked up a knife and got a good rough shape for a turtle from basswood. I would show but not sure how to add a photo to this post. Now I feel like the knife just cant do the corners and things like I would need. I have a cheap wood sculpting tool kit from amazon but no matter what i try I cannot get them to work for me.

    Any tips or advice? I started this to be a gift for a close friend a while ago and I'm struggling now. So any tips to know at all for carving and sculpting in general would be great. Thanks!
