I have trouble setting my carving tool more than a couple of days....10 years is a long time, but you'll get back into it. Welcome to the forum.

What I hate is ,I was just starting to get half way decent at it and I feel like I wasted 10 years that I could have improved my skills and now have to start over. Oh well maybe some of it will come back to me.

Welcome! Glad you picked up your tools again!

It's just like riding a bike...I put my down for 30 years and couldn't find them, so I had to buy new ones. lol...

Hi Joe,

Welcome, you've come to the right place for motivation. After being at this site, someone will have to pry your carving tools out of your hand.

Have fun,

Loretta
