Description - The Complete Book of Woodcarving by Everett Ellenwood
From making the first cut to applying the finish, this comprehensive resource covers every aspect of woodcarving. Everything is here for the beginning or advanced woodcarver, from choosing the appropriate wood; setting up a shop, selecting, using, and sharpening tools; and performing all the fundamental techniques, such as the push cut, pull cut, stop cut, and slicing cut. Every general carving style -- from classical to whimsical to rustic -- are detailed, as are the basic steps of power carving. Eight projects designed to help newer woodcarvers build proficiency are included along with the plans for the rocking horse featured on the cover. Best of all, a handy resource section and a glossary round out this fully illustrated, must-have resource for all woodcarvers.
