Hello again my whittlin' mentor. I wanted to say that if i had your skill and now that i am semi retired i think i would carve all e pieces of a chess board. Like wizards ,witches dwarves vs kings,queens and elves, it would be awesome to see you do that,i know 64 pieces it too much but painted up would be over the top fantastic. It would be worth a ton too, can you have it ready by christmas?great thank you. Lol. ; )
I did a few chess pieces over the years. One day I may revisit it with some type of character theme. Thanks for the inspiration my friend! (I'll get the chess set in the mail ASAP 😉😉). Peace! 👍✌
is that a chunk of 2x4 or something? I have been carving pine for a few years I bought at an Amish mill near me that was tongue and groove with damage. About 2 inches thick so I cut them into strips the same as thickness and one board gave me 30 or more carving blocks
It is a piece of eastern white pine dimensional lumber from one of the big box stores. Great find to wind up with 30+ carvable 2" blocks of pine. Time to get whittling! 😉 Thank you! 👍✌
Very nice Santa ornament Ken! I love how that grain shows through too.
