Hi From Central Minnesota, USA

[Jeff Williams]

Just received an order of basswood and butternut from Loess Hills a few days ago...very satisfied with the product.

Fun piece to look at...well done!

Very nicely done, dicka...thanks for sharing it with us!

[Jeff Williams]

Great work, Claude!

[Jeff Williams]

Well done, Mark!

[Jeff Williams]

Thank you, Mark!

HAHA, I can definitely see that!! I struggled early on getting things "carving sharp". Once you understand the importance of getting that burr with as fine a grit as you can, and keeping things sharp instead of letting them get dull, you're on your way.



I will check...

Thanks for the welcome, Brian! The sharpening part is in my DNA by now. I spent almost 30 years as a machinist/toolmaker, and have been sharpening knives and tools for friends and family for a long time now.

Very nice, JerseyGirl...thanks for sharing it! Agree with Merle's comments on the eyes....

[Jeff Williams]

Thanks again, Folks, for the welcome!

[Jeff Williams]

Thanks Bill. I really enjoy Doug Linker's videos...informative and he's got a great sense of humor. Also really enjoy Kevin Coates' style of carving. Will check Gene Messer out as well. Thanks for the heads up on him!...

[Jeff Williams]

Wow, thanks for the warm welcome! There is some great basswood in this area. Also know a couple spots I need to hike to and check for cottonwood bark as well. Thanks again for the welcome!

Howdy from central MN. Been interested in all things wood-related for as long as I can remember. I've done quite a few different forms of wood working over the years, but just recently purchased a couple carving knives and some basswood. It's been humbling to say the least, but is enjoyable. Definitely...
