We meet on a Thursday night. It is a small group but gradually expanding. We all share a great liking and feeling for wood, in particular the carving types.

​

There are so many different ways you can create an object to your liking which then can be displayed somewhere in the home or given away.

​

Sometimes pleasure can be gotten by just using a whittling knife to make a small caricature or animal.

 

Create your own picture from a photo or old biscuit tin lid carved in relief. This can be done using any depth of relief. There is the way of carving in the round where you make a 3D copy of something.

 

Some people are enthused by chip carving, basically removing chips in a pattern to create a picture.
