    Need help identifying wooden egg

    Posted: 28 May 2021 08:48 AM PDT

    I came across this and I have no idea what it is. Hoping someone can help!

    It's an oval "egg" (but both sides are the same). Each tip has a metal pin in it with very little room between the end and the pin head. If it's sitting so the egg ends are horizontal it has a veticle groove running down the center all the way around it and two holes on one side, horizonal about 1" apart, one on either side of the groove.

    Technique question

    Posted: 27 May 2021 04:29 PM PDT

    I've seen in a bunch of videos that carvers will put in a stop cut, cut up to the stop then cut down to remove the chip and drag their knife edge along the wood a little bit to pop the piece out. Does this matter at all? I was thinking this would bend the knife edge pretty quickly, but wasn't sure.

    This is the watch tower. It was created as a means to cure the streets of solicitors, but they just can't be stopped. Now it rests disposed, arguing with itself over what channel to put on.

    What is a good soft wood to work on?

    Posted: 27 May 2021 07:10 PM PDT

    Got into wood turning, and the biggest problem I've run into is knowing and finding the proper material (doesn't matter to me wether hardwood or softwood). As of now, I use a maple wood cube from the rockler website and pine wood columns from Home Depot.

    The maple wood is fine in terms of handling and quality, though I would like something cheaper to practice on. The pine wood is easy to handle but given it comes from a lumber yard, it splits as soon as it dries and is more likely to split even more from having a thick grain.

    Another detail I feel is necessary, is that I want the wood to be rather thick; between 3 and 4 inches (specifications if it's something from a store or website). I find plenty of good woods on the rockler website, and then I see that they are skinny 1 and 2 inch columns.

    Help for an absolute beginner? ��

    Posted: 27 May 2021 12:01 PM PDT

    Hello everyone! I have been trying to get into the hobby, but I feel aimless and a little disheartened. I've been watching doug linker and carving is fun on YouTube and they gave me the inspiration to try it out. I got some blocks of basswood and my trusty victorinox and.... got nothing. Just mediocre dents. I sharpened it with my knife sharpening (which is what the company recommends to use) and it got a little better, but I couldn't get big chunks of wood, just a little bit on the corners. I got a set of chisels/gauges home depot (not the best place, i know, but I thought it would get me started and make AT LEAST one piece until i could get proper tools) but I was somehow worse than the cheapie set i have from menards that i use on rubber stamps. It left the wood all splinty and after two hours of trying alone and with a hammer, my blocks were still square and my wrists on fire. I'm not sure what is wrong on this chain of events. I thought I got the right wood, Doug says that basswood "carves like butter", but it was so hard for me! Maybe I'm not strong enough to get the tools through the wood? Maybe the tools are fine, just too dull? Should i wait and get a proper whittling knife or sharpen my swiss army more? Or should I just accept that I'll have to commission the gnomes for my fairy garden and stick to crochet?

    Thank you all in advance ☹️

    Need help with big elm, burls

    Posted: 27 May 2021 12:21 PM PDT

    Hello all, I have a question and maybe your community can help. I have a giant elm covered in burls and it is in a spot where it might die if construction moves forward. At this time, it is healthy as can be. What do I do with this tree? Can I fell this tree and sell it to artists/carvers? The largest burls are large enough to make a bath tub. a few hundred burl nodes on the entire tree.

    Thanks
