Default Re: Wood Carving with The Classic.

I agree Rich,

I saw pics of some of Ron's work when he was here at the house. Ron's and Joe Rundell's stock carvings have actually inspired me to do some wood carving on the fly rod I am currently building.

I have been using my PC with modified square gravers for outlining and with tiny flat wood gravers/chisels for carving. I am also using some rotary burs for hogging larger areas without chipping or tearing things out. The PC does come in handy and gives me more control over just trusting hand push methods.

I ran into Ron at the Movie theater last weekend. Next time I run into him in town I will have to hound him a bit about posting pics of some of his work. His stock carving is outstanding.
