Title: Wood Carver
Post by: raven.worldlrnr on June 02, 2017, 05:44:10 PM
Foredom 1/6 hp SR motor
Love to carve anything but really like the organic stuff the best. Although I am getting ready to carve a mermaid masthead out of cedar this summer when the woods ready.

Lol, I have never taken a carving class. I am a disabled veteran and use power tools. A) Is a scrub brush Mahogany I'm working on now.  B) I just got this and will tidy it up for a table base. Thank you for being so polite.
