Default Greetings from Illinois
New to the site, actually I haven't even bounced around to see whats all on here. I frequent a few other woodworking sites and just was referred to this site. Maybe you can help me. I am looking for a pattern for a ball & claw foot. I would like to attempt carving a few in the near future. I stress the attempt part. I mainly carve relief and pretty much have always used walnut, white oak and mahoganey. I've been doing this a few years and have never actually worked with any basswood. Just recently gathered a few peices of tbasswood to give it a try.
Thanks, Jeff

Welcome to the forum! I saw where someone on another thread mentioned that you will get quite a few hits if you google "carving a ball and claw."
