    Hi Kevin, always get inspiration from the carvings you create. They make me want to keep carving & get better. Thanks so much.

    Hello Kevin, I think it has to be said the level of carving you attain from, and I know this to be true as I asked you some time ago, from old floor joists and bits of scrap wood Pine and the like, fill me with envy how you release these little people from the wood. TOP MAN, and a big Thank You it really spurs me on to keep trying!!!

    • @KevinCoates98
      @KevinCoates98  3 місяці тому

      Taking big chunks comes in time along with a little confidence. The more you carve the more comfortable you will get taking bigger bites into the wood
