Hi Milosev, Tell me the kind Of thing you want to carve and I'll help. If you know of specific books let me know and I'll try to find it.

There are all types of freebie patterns-even on this forum. What's the reason you can't order books online? The shipping part might be high but can't see no reason if you have a cc.

Answer for Krum.You probably know what is hepen in Serbija for past few jears so we still hawe no laws that regulates internet and banks still dont let credit card use online. You probably dont know but averige paycheck in serbija is a little over 200 dolars and that can be a problem.

Voja, there is always a way to exchange things in this world. Money is never a problem going around the world. I am sure the cost of sending it would be such a cost to you it would be more of a downfall then it's worth. Just my opinion. Sending items overseas is a cost to anyone. And with the internet full of patterns FREE you can do that and just ask anyone here for carving help. That's what the group is for-asking and learning. I just get leary when it comes to things like this. I have no problem answering ? to help others but we all work hard and I would hate to see anyone scammed. Sorry if this offends you but that's my view and concern on overseas inquiries or dealings. If I am wrong ok , but rather be leary then scammed down the road. I wish you luck on finding and using patterns online. Would love to have you post some of your carvings on the list would be nice to see what your working on.
