Wood carving New and improved gouge rack I made from oak and walnut |
- New and improved gouge rack I made from oak and walnut
- Carving a dog. Still in progress.
- literally my first time it took like 7 hours xD
- amateur
- A little Hobbit friend (basswood and acrylic)
- Oak pendant I carved. Thought it would look good on this necklace.
- My first ever carving! Learned a lot from the class I took and I’m look long forward to improving!
- Decided on a whim that I want to start carving. Made an impulse purchase and bought a super cheap Amazon set. Will this be ok for someone who has literally never carved anything?
- @rotarychisel in action on some super hard and dense old growth oak
- I made this feather today, still needs some work but I think it's coming together nicely
- So I have these smaller blanks that I have no use for, how viable would it be to glue them together and do a face carving? Maybe the mismatching grain would look cool but what about carving into them?
- First attempt at a bentwood ring. Less messy than carving them out of a solid block thats for sure!
- Woodworking plans
- Sore neck

Posted: 12 Mar 2021 09:19 AM PST Title says it all. I've recently chosen to go sober and I wanted to find a hobby that can keep me busy in my downtime. My first project is going to be an alien from toy story. Will I be able to achieve this with a $30 set from Amazon? Also any advice you guys have would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Posted: 11 Mar 2021 03:07 PM PST I usually carve with a bench knife or flat palm chisel, and the project in my left hand. Despite stropping and sharpening I find myself driving the blade through the wood with force. After a while my neck and left arm get sore. It is more noticeable with the chisel. I usually carve on teak and other soft woods, sitting crosslegged. Is there something I can do to reduce this issue? I'd expect the right arm and neck to get sore for all the force I exert. Interestingly, its the left. I thought moving to a larger/ heavier blade might be a solution. [link] [comments] |
