Working With Wood Books

If you want the biggest variety of designs from one source, this chip carving pattern book offers that and more.  The patterns here were assembled to provide the wood chip carver with hands-on experience in several different types of work, including lettering, geometric art, signs, positive image, and free form designs.

The book features 125 projects for chip carvers of all skill levels.  With projects in everything from boxes to wall plaques and lamps to chair backs, you are assured of a beautiful selection of stunningly crafted, functional pieces for your home or to share as gifts.  With both drawings and photos of several examples provided, you have a unique look at the creative process from start to finish.  

The patterns in this wood chip carving book make use of the two most common knife blades – W.B. Premier No. 1 and No. 2 – and the easiest types of wood for the craft – basswood and butternut.  With these basic supplies, you can easily begin work on a project that will take your woodworking to new levels of skill and enjoyment.
