Well, at the risk of alienating everyone in the woodcarving world, I am going to post a list of websites offering free patterns. People ask for patterns, and we post the links and then they get lost in the ever growing maze of the Wood Carving Illustrated Forum website. Some of these patterns are for beginners, some are more advanced.

2006年6月4日 · Re: Cypress Knees Beginner patterns Bill-- On your 3 foot knees you might think about cutting off 6 or 7 inches off the bottom and carving a head out of it as shown in this pic. I do a lot of that and you get a medium size Cypress knee Santa plus a Santa head. Two for one. Just a suggestion to make your tall knees go further.

2023年11月26日 · I am going the power carving route because my hand grip is reduced and I need the tool to do the heavy work. I plan on starting to teach myself to relief carve simple patterns like flower petals etc. to learn how to use and control the tools. What I would have is a Dremel 4000 with a flex shaft and a number of bits. Which brings me to my question.

I've been wanting to get into wood carving for a while but keep getting stumped here and there with guides using a bandsaw or large chisels to rough things out. Thought I wasn't gonna get anywhere until I found your 5 minute gnome tutorial!

2007年2月15日 · Re: Moose antler carving I spent around 12yrs scrollsawing exclusively, antler scrollsawing about 3yrs ago. I started carving carving antler in March 2006 at the request of a customer. I have hundreds of scrollsaw patterns which I used to photocopy and cut up to fit the antler. So once you have the basic silouette you have a great start.

Go to an online carving supplier like Wood Carving Tools - Wood Carving Supplies - Wood Carving Equipment - WoodCarversSupply.com or any other good site and order yourself some aggressive bits for hogging with. The Dremel won't take anything larger than a 1/8 bit so be careful what size you order.

2010年1月31日 · Re: carving burr-poor performance Mike, I use a Foredom llexshaft and have not had this problem. I suspect that using them as router bits, even though you move slow and shallow, keeps the burr in contact with the wood at a high speed allowing it to become quite hot and leads to burning.

I bought myself a Dremel 4000 on Tuesday and picked up a few burrs from my local hardware store, they are these :- High Speed Cutter 7,8 mm (144) - Dremel Now I've seen on your site some Carbide Point Bits/Burrs called Typhoon, Saburr Tooth, Kutzall, and would like to know if anyone knows of a stockist in England, online hopefully.
