    This is my third project pretty close to being finished, I'm new to woodcarving but I'm super hyped about this lil doggy!��

    I made this guy this week, pretty happy with how it turned out. Glad to see fast progress after starting a couple months ago.

    Help a beginner

    Posted: 11 Feb 2021 04:57 AM PST

    So I've always wanted to carve since I was tiny but had overbearing parents that didn't want me touching knives or something. Now I'm an adult with my own business and a bit of money (not much 😬) looking to start. A) can I please have recommendations of brands and places to buy starting knives and wood. I'm UK based and my budget is small. B) what are good projects for total beginners other than a spoon? I've always had an interest in stone boiling so would eventually like to make a large bowl but I'm guessing that would need a big expensive bit of wood and is pretty ambitious for one of my first few projects. Thanks in advance everyone

    First project I haven’t lost a concerning amount of blood on!! Not /awful/ but I want to try to make another

    I started out using my Dremel Flex Shaft for the outline, then I used the Mastercraft chisels to shape the body along with my Husky utility knife to complete it. Once I completed this, I used the Wood Burning pen with a universal tip to burn all the outer skin pattern and my personal signature.

    Compound build-up on knife when stropping? (Pics)

    Posted: 11 Feb 2021 03:03 AM PST

    Disclaimer, I'm a total newcomer to woodcarving, especially when it comes to sharpening tools. I bought a basic kit off Amazon that included a leather strop, some green compound and a set of knives.

    I can get the knives pretty sharp using a dual grit whetstone but I'm either clueless about how I'm supposed to work with a strop or something's not right.

    I've watched several videos online but I just can't seem to catch where I'm going wrong.

    https://ibb.co/wJKfscY (close-up) https://ibb.co/sCBRgFG (strop + compound)

    After applying compound to the smooth side of the leather strop I drag the blade (rather than push) across the surface several times then repeat in the other direction. This only results in a build-up of green compound on my blade which I have to then wipe off rather painstakingly.

    Any tips?

    Knife suggestions?

    Posted: 10 Feb 2021 06:53 PM PST

    So! Does anyone have any knife sets they like to use for everyday wood carving? I like to carve lil animals during my college classes instead of listening to the lectures. I'd like to get a nice, sturdy set of knives that I won't have to replace all the time- In addition to a cut-proof glove, of course. I've possibly been using an exacto knife which... 👉🏻👈🏻 probably isn't my best bet.
