    Stropless beginner

    Posted: 25 Jan 2022 11:55 PM PST

    Hello, so I recently came into the possession of wood carving knives to keep me busy while I look for a job (currently unemployed thanks to covid) and after doing a bit of readings and videos, I noticed that I do have a leather strop for the knives but I do have some sort of hard gritty stone block. Am I SOL with carving until I am able to get a strop or can I go ahead and start?

    Thanks for any and all replies!

    Final result. 2 passes was not quite enough to cut, but 92% of it was cut through. One more pass would have done it.1/4” Birch plywood from Home Depot. Quite satisfied with the result.

    Need some help with a gift!

    Hi! I have minimal experience with wood, and I have never actually carved or crafted really anything out of wood. I've sanded skateboards to paint and customize, but never actually made anything out of wood.

    I want to make guitar picks for my husband for Valentine's Day! He's very talented and I want to support him and his hobby. He has picks, but they're just cheapy generic ones, so I want to make him some!

    I'm very handy, and I'm comfortable using all kinds of tools, I just don't really know where to start with this.

    What is the best kind of wood to start with, that can be stained/finished to look nice? Or even a wood with an interesting grain pattern to work with? I don't think I've advanced enough to carve pattern into the wood, but I'm willing to try if you guys think it's doable for a beginner!

    What is the best way to "finish" something? Would I use an oil? A lacquer? Is there a sealer I should know about?

    Is this something I should go straight in with a knife, or a different tool?

    Is sanding a finishing method, or is there a different process I should know about?

    Budget is small, so any cost-conscious options are very much appreciated. All advice is helpful! Thank you in advance!
