Lets not muddy up the other thread.
I dabble with wood. I'm still learning the ropes.

I just got into wood carving. I carved this little guy about 5 minutes ago.

I have never carved a complete gunstock. I don't believe I possess the skills. I have inlet several rifles into semi-finished blanks that I was very pleased with.
I used to enjoy building cribbage boards. Simple projects that made great gifts. I have family that work at the Ethan Allen factory so I had an almost endless supply of free hardwood cutoffs to work with. I haven’t made one in years, it’s kinda funny I’ve made so many of the damn things but my boards at home are just cheap Walmart boards lol.
I really like those tree spirit carvings.Piping Abe wrote: ↑Sat Mar 26, 2022 5:13 pm I just got into wood carving. I carved this little guy about 5 minutes ago.

I wonder if "blame Wildcat" will become a theme here? - Fr_Tom
