Wood carving tools.

Well if your at the meets next year joe cook one up m8.....nothing better than a good curry
 
Wood carving Is relaxing and rewarding in fact anything made by yourself is rewarding so get them spoons and bowls carved and take plenty of plasters with you:rofl:


I'm waiting to see what Lorraine's actions will be when I lay down a dust sheet in the front room to do a bit of carving:D......Brownie points could rapidly descend.:whistle:

Picked up a couple of books today that will come in handy for the wood carving.

some people have all the luck could you please tell me how to do the spiral & opinels please joecole
 
got a few bit of wood will have a try just being buying a new pocket knife from the knife warehouse
 
View attachment 8275

Opinel pocket knives , on the right a no6 with a carbon steel blade and on the left a stainless steel no8. The number refers to blade length. Technically they are illegal because the blades lock
Incidentally Jeff get a roll of electrical tape, using that you can get the spirals the same width apart likewise with diamond cuts
