You didn't say what kind of "egg" carving tutorial you wanted so here's a egg chip carving web site with a bit of a tutorial, neat egg carving holder too. http://www.carversedge.com/projects.htm#top BTW there are a few books out there on "egg" carving, Mary Finn has a couple, Skylar Johson has one on caricature egg carving and Laura Putnam Dunkle has a number of books on egg carving for birds , animals etc. all books are good tutorials , again depends on what you want to carve out of basswood eggs.Smile Cheers.

Thanks to you all! I just thought it might be nice to have some egg references to refer to in case anyone wanted to carve egg ornaments for Christmas. I hear they are "egg-citing" to carve! hahaha Good one HI HO! Blake |

Blake, I carved a Santa Ornamenty from basswood hen size egg. Liken they all said, there are a host of egg carving books out there. However, Come up with your own design. You are good enough to carve one.

There are some good articles in back issues of WCI. I have not seen Skylar Johnsons book but I have Mary Finns book carving eggheads and really like it.
