Re: TOOTHPICK CARVINGS!!!!
I tried to get into your site twice, JD - both times it wouldn't respond. I'm really interested in seeing what a 'toothpick' carving is!! And MORE interested in how you've done a website about it without pictures!

Re: TOOTHPICK CARVINGS!!!!
I also ran the search and got to see a few of the photos of carved toothpicks. They are definitly a challenge to do, but done they are! Very inventive material.

J.D.
I would suggest for such small items that you might be better off if you can find a friend with a good 35mm camera with a macro lens, a tripod, and a cable release. The film can be developed and put on a disk so you can upload the pics to your computer and site. I am thinking about dusting off my Minolta and using it for pics since I took Christmas pics with both it and the digital and the pictures on disk from the 35mm are far superior.

Re: TOOTHPICK CARVINGS!!!!
You folks are too easily impressed. :
I can carve a toothpick chain out of a 1in x 1in x 3 ft long piece of basswood. Then take a picture and superimpose a penny next to it. (could work) :-/
I do have a friend who carved several toothpics and matchsticks into chains. He sharpened dental instruments into chisels and had more patience than I have.
I did try to make pliers from wood kitchen matches once, without success, but I used up a whole box of matches before I gave up.Comment

Re: TOOTHPICK CARVINGS!!!!
JD,
I don't know if this will work for you but you might want to try and scan your toothpick carvings on a flatbed scanner.
I would love to see them. Let us know when you get pictures.Comment
