Can I join in as and when I can? I got a carving bar for my birthday in May and have managed to use it for an hour and a half! And on the same lump of wood, my first attempt is a cows head... there was one looking at me over the fence...might have bitten off more than I can chew! :)

 

of course you can join in as & when it suits you, this really is only for fun!! im in the same situation, bought carving bar, small saw etc....... over a year ago, still not even tried it, hence this thread.

 

guessed there was probably a few people about who had done little or no carving, im hoping this will encourage others as well as myself!! few more people an we'l go for it!!!!!!!!!!! :thumbup:

What no pictures yet? come on guys get your carving bars out, i wanna see:001_rolleyes:

I would join in but found my artistic flair to be a bit non existent and any mushroom i have tried to do turned out looking like something else if you know what i mean:blushing:

Needless to say my friend has a huge bell end in his garden that i was very happy to leave onsite and still rooted into the ground :lol:

Im in, I have never done carving and don't have a creative bone in my body but did my first mushroom quickly yesterday. I will take a photo tomorrow and post it up here.

I've not seen a shell before so interested to see how these are done.
