Re: Use for scrap wood
I carve little hillbilly men and women. Also, it use those pieces of wood when working with Boy and Cub Scouts on the their knife safety and wood carving badges for the Boy Scouters.
My 5 year old Granddaughter, came in the other day and said Papa, Is this carving I did prettiful?. Dang if it wasn't.
Guess i have a little carver in the family.
Safety, the enjoyment.
Kenny SSafety first, then enjoy carving! Ken Caney, Ks

Re: Use for scrap wood
I've got a big cardboard box sitting on the floor beside my bandsaw where I toss all of the cut-offs when I'm cutting blanks. I'll have to pick up that book so I can start using some of it. It would be a shame to throw it in the fire. There's little guys in there waiting to be carved out :Safety first
