Wood Spirit Practice Stick

MackTheKnife · #1 01-24-2009, 02:55 PM

This is the practice stick I used to develop the way I do wood spirits. The first picture shows the two faces done the traditional way (beginning with the curved surface of the dowel) on the top and the ones I started by carving a right angle into the dowel before beginning the faces are on the bottom. The other pictures show each face right side up. I'll bet you can tell which ones were done with each technique.

Nice looking practice sticks which are always so helpful. Especially to beginning woodcarvers and heck all carvers no matter what their level of expertis.
