Default Hi I am new to this forum.

I just wanted to say hi, I have sculpted for about 10 years, but just recently started to work in wood, so far I am likeing it. Wood is much easier to move then rock. Well I hope to get to know some of you here and learn more about wood craving.

Welcome to the forum. You know you can combine rock and wood carving. There is a brave carver on this site that is trying to carve an indian head out of Osage Orange. That wood will give rocks a run for their money!

Have fun,
Dan

Hi Brett,

I 'crave' wood myself! If you're not careful, you'll be hooked!

Welcome...

Welcome Corbin. I am working on some rock maple now. It seems pretty rock-like.
