Wood carving My weekend project Appa

My weekend project Appa
Bog oak raven pendant. Details painted with acrylics. I put a garnet bead in the talon
Gnome out of basswood fully painted
My current project, for my brother!
Just another maple spoon
My boss is making friends even in the pandemic
Made myself a carving table and bench dogs to keep my projects in place.
I finished my first woodcarving!:)
First project! Better than expected with plenty of room for improvement.
i’m an architecture student and made my first spoon carving today and this was my dads reaction
I bought a 20 lb box of basswood from Rockler. This should last me a while.
My first time making a guitar pick, for a friend (Black Ops 2 Jugger-Nog Symbol)
Whittle Cosmo-Bot
Sharpening knives
Is it possible for basswood to be kind of tough to cut through
Anyone here have any advice on how to mount this whale to this driftwood?
I acquire new a new book or two every month. This is the 2 Nd flavor of the month for January . I’m someone when they dive in.. they take a header,full on immersion I wanna know it all
My first carving. Not that good but better then I expected. Love this hobby.

Sharpening knives

Posted: 24 Jan 2021 07:52 AM PST

Good morning, I'm sure you receive questions about knife sharpening very often. My questions are fairly direct. How often do you find you need to sharpen your knives? Is it better to have them professionally sharpened? Does technique and experience lead to not needing to sharpen as often? Thank you, and I love seeing everyone's work on here. It gives me something to aspire for.

Is it possible for basswood to be kind of tough to cut through

Posted: 24 Jan 2021 07:47 AM PST

I ordered some air dried basswood on eBay and my knife is brand new I also Used a Strop several times. And it seems a little tough to get through the wood. My knife is a flex cut whittlin jack and I'm pretty new to the hobby but watching videos it seems like people get through the woods much easier than I've been so I was just wondering.
