| book description |

Whether experienced or new to woodcarving, you are sure to appreciate the in-depth knowledge of the art form from author David Young. The book begins with information on what you need to know to start whittling including tools, materials, knife sharpening, and techniques. David then covers finishing your project with instructions for his simple painting technique to achieve professional-looking results. Using these techniques, you'll then be ready to start whittling the beautifully illustrated projects which range in difficulty, building on the skills and techniques used in each. You'll start with 4 projects that build upon each other, adding a new technique and skill for each. You are then ready to start the next 6 simple projects, further refining your whittling skills and finally the step-up projects that include a pineapple, a vase with a rose, and a wood spirit. Each project uses a 1"" x 1"" x 'varying length' block and can be completed in less than an hour. The scale of the projects and the use of minimal tools and supplies make carving the projects possible in virtually any space or location.
