But if there are any other people who are interested in a introduction workshop in Noord Holland (zaanstreek) I will gladly organize one. <br />Marie, I've uploaded some pics from the setup to make clear (in the left hand column is a link for my Picasa Photostream). In this case a basic drill-press holding a Proxxon ME drill. With different burrs at various hight's using a pivot pin you can route any recess or edge. Does that answer your question?Deborahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00288909507295400867noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4018860326266912322.post-56397631349763665222011-08-16T01:25:26.002-06:002011-08-16T01:25:26.002-06:00Hi Debbie !

Thanks for pointing out that they come as small as 0,5 mm wide. That's definitely something I will look into. <br /><br />As for the basics of carving; I would gladly sit down with anyone and show how rewarding carving can be. I once did a post on barley twists:<br />http://petitpunt.blogspot.com/2009/08/making-rope-twisted-legs.html<br />That's a really nice one to start with carving. The measuring is maybe the hardest part as the carving is easy and gentle. At the same the result is very nice and can be used for a lot of projects. A lamp base, candle or even on a table leg. Let me know if any of you have questions.Deborahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00288909507295400867noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4018860326266912322.post-85942151648912099552011-08-15T11:13:00.986-06:002011-08-15T11:13:00.986-06:00Fijn dat je goed gereedschap hebt gevonden, de spi...Fijn dat je goed gereedschap hebt gevonden, de spiegel wordt echt heel erg mooi!

I'd love to see the finished piece. <br />I also had my doubts about carving tools - always liked scalpels, later I discovered Kirschen chisels, and now a huge fan of them. I have the smallest sizes - from 0,5 mm to 3 mm. All work fine and don't require much sharpening. I'm a beginner at carving but with the sofa those chisels really helped me. I didn't write about them in my blog, only on my site - http://inchscaled.com/2011/06/%D0%BF%D1%80%D0%BE-%D0%BD%D0%BE%D0%B6%D0%B8-%D0%B8-%D1%80%D0%B5%D0%B7%D1%86%D1%8B/ - sorry it's all in Russian, but I have google translate there.Victoriahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11076751553517597493noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4018860326266912322.post-74416449614096634622011-08-15T10:29:22.793-06:002011-08-15T10:29:22.793-06:00Wow, can't wait to see it finished, glad you f...Wow, can't wait to see it finished, glad you found some nice new tools!!!!!!Elgahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01639738521849496729noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4018860326266912322.post-46072348101158853892011-08-15T10:28:29.802-06:002011-08-15T10:28:29.802-06:00Ze zien er erg mooi uit, het staat nog steeds op m...Ze zien er erg mooi uit, het staat nog steeds op mijn lijstje om er ook eens mee te werken, dus ik ben blij met jouw ervaring.<br />groetjes Sylviasylviahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14494003047072562574noreply@blogger.com
