In trying to learn woodcarving, I have purchased several DVD's which I find very helpful though, of course, some are better than others. Would anyone care to add to the list and/or comment on them?
Allen Goodman-Carving a Woodspirit in a Hiking Stick
David Sabol-Woodcarving Basics
Jack Price-Carving the Compact Character
Mike Bloomquist-Carving Easy Santas
Gene Webb-Carving a Smokey Mountain Black Bear with a Pocketknife
Gene Webb-Eaglehead Cane Top

Harley Refsal's Figure Carving Scandinavian Style DVD is good. You'll learn a lot about carving with just using a knife. You'll also learn about histroy of Scandanavian carving.

I rented mine from Smartflix. Here's a link to the list of the woodcarving videos.

If you give them enough of a reason, I'm sure they'll increase the size of the library. And that'll benefit everybody in the long run.
