    Finally got my books right. Turns out, it's a lot harder to carve a 1x1 than a 2x2. Been loving watching your videos and the whole YT carving community. Just started on Christmas when the family got me some basswood and a knife. I'm 50 and plan to hike the Appalachian Trail, or part of, with my daughter next year. Leaving wood spirits along 2200 miles from Georgia to Maine is the goal. Thank you Doug

    Hi Doug, great little keepsake for Valentines. Quick one, i noted when you cut the 2 slices for the hearts you got little or no fuzz on the cut. What TPI have you got on your blade? My blade is sharp but leaves fuzz every time...but only on basswood. Thanks.

    • @WIZ-IN-PA
      @WIZ-IN-PA Рік тому

      Try pushing the wood through the band saw blade slowly. You'll get a lot less fuzz. This is also a good tip for cutting trim with a miter box saw.
