Book synopsis

Carving is an area of woodworking that has wide appeal and can start as simply as whittling figures with a pocket knife. Since the cost of entry is so low, many people are willing to give it a try. But some people are put off by the conflicting information about what tools to buy, how to sharpen them and by the bewildering range of carving styles. This book, with its commonsense approach to tools and sharpening and its broad survey of the many styles, is the perfect introduction for the novice carver. The projects will help the beginner become familiar with the tools and learn skills while trying a variety of carving styles to see which suits them best. The projects range from the traditional to the contemporary and reflect the tastes of today's woodcarvers.
