Default Newbie in Central Illinois

Greetings:
Considering a move into wood carving, probably power carving. Trying to make a decision now about which system to start with. I own two compressors at the present time, so air vs electric may well be my first decision. Hope to engrave wood, horn and eventually some metal. Look forward to utilizing your knowledge as I move forward.

G'day, welcome to the forum. Lots to see and learn here, and some very fine, helpful carvers to assist you along the way. Just cruise the previous threads for any questions you may have using the search function. Sure to have all the answers you may have, if not....ask away. Have fun, Joe.
