Description:
I am 65 years old and started carving when I was 5 when I discovered my grandfathers carving chisels stored in my dad's shop. I did not get serious about carving until I was about 25. Back then I had no one to teach me but I picked up a copy of Wheeler and Hayward's book on carving. It was the only book available back in the 60's and remained the best book until Chris started his great series a few years back. Chris has left them all in the dust.
