Course Overview

Learn to carve letters, numbers and small insignia to mark your work. We’ll cover how to transfer designs to wood, and incise letters and numbers with an emphasis on freehand drawing. These skills can be utilized for projects as prominent as road signs and as discreet as a small smiling face that only the most observant passerby will notice. There will be a number of tools available to try, including a variety of chisels and v-gouges, but much can be accomplished with a simple carving knife. This type of carving is a great skill for anyone who works in wood. Feel free to bring a small project you have in mind, or simply practice before digging into a big project. Students may register for an optional 3rd day of instruction and practice for $50, offered Sunday, March 9.
