How To Carve A Woodspirit In A Hiking Stick July 30, 2008 This is a wonderful little book to help you on your way to carving. I recommend it to all beginners.
Great book to learn how to carve wood spirits July 12, 2008 Got the book, gathered some tools--1/4" gouge, 1/8" gouge, 1/4" v tool, a kevlar glove, and a knife. Picked up a glue-lamed stick of pine 1x2's, rounded it off to about a 1 1/2" somewhat rounded stick, and then carved my first wood spirit according to the book. I've done another one as a pendant ornament in a 3/4" trianglular piece of basswood, and working on a second face in the pine stick. All in about a week or so--this from a guy who hates to carve faces! Good book!
Detailed instruction for a beginner July 9, 2008 I like this book, though the price seemed a little high for a leaflet with one project. I give the author kudos for extremely detailed step-by-step instructions and large pictures that do a great job of carefully guiding a beginner wood carver.

This is the best step by step instruction for a beginner I have come across. All one needs do is add their own creativity once the basics are down and, voila, a successful woodcarving!
