How and when I got started woodcarving
Like a lot of people I started carving after an Industrial accident where I broke my back .After a long convalescent period I needed something to keep me sane ,and in desperation turned to carving and Intarsia and scrollsaw work.
I enjoy these types of woodcarving
I greatly enjoy carving in the round and am presently working on a Nativity for my grandchildren.I also like to carve birds and animals.
I enjoy carving these things
My most enjoyment comes from carving statues and birds
