When you have many #rabbitholes in your life, here is one that the #whittling community might enjoy: https://www.atlasobscura.com/articles/chess-carvers-amritsar-india
Maybe yet another project for me to carve a complete #chess set!

anyway I thought "well it's still a week until my partner's birthday, and you know what's better than a carved wooden fish? two or three carved fish, in different types of wood!" so here we are. if I fuck this up I still have one pretty good fish done, so my handful of blessèd fedifollowers may have PROCESS PHOTOS (which I usually forget to take)

perhaps if I take completely different photos of the same object?

Here are a couple of wooden figures I carved. I tried a new technique—burning patterns into the wood with a soldering iron. I think it worked quite well. These figures don’t really have a specific story behind them, but perhaps they could be seen as some kind of spirits or gnome-like beings from Finnic folk belief. Kalevala often comes to mind with wooden figures like these, but that’s not really my goal or intention when carving. The pieces just tend to turn out the way they do. I don’t usually make detailed plans, as I wouldn’t know how to follow them through into finished works anyway.

More carvingmania from the early 1980s. These were going to be bolo tie slides. #whittling #archaeology
Yeah, I went through a wood carving phase. #whittling
Miniature weapons anybody? #FolkArt #Whittling
A whittle TARDIS.
The hard part of something like this is pushing through to a final product even if I'm a little unhappy with it instead of just immediately giving up as soon as I fuck up.
Birch wood spirit. Branch was a bit dry and tough, and I've been out of action so my hands are feeling weaker than they were when I was doing one of these a day, but it came out really nice.

I'm looking for someone who whittles (edit: or does wood carving, apparently they're different things!) I'd like to buy a small figurine of a sleeping bear, from within EU. I'm having trouble finding someone who *makes* that kind of thing on Etsy, and doesn't just sell it. So, anybody know anybody? #DanskerTrut #whittling #woodworking
Continued thread
I bought the morakniv. Also ordered a pair of level 5 cut-resistant gloves and some basswood blocks. Let's see how badly wrong this can go.

OK hear me out. Tabletop #wargames, but you have to whittle all your figures out of wood.
