Issue #22

Greetings!

Welcome to another issue of Carving Magazine. We have lots to offer this time—including articles from some of your past favorite contributors, as well as some new things to share.

William Gray, Dave Disselbrett, Joe Dillett, and John Call each make a return visit to this issue with some fantastic stuff. Gray shares a detailed cowboy project, Disselbrett shows us how to carve a simple golfer, Dillett helps us with pricing our work, and Call explores chip carving.

Our newest columnists bring another round of valuable techniques… J. R. Dunster continues her “Drawing for Woodcarvers” series, Ev Ellenwood is helping us become master sharpeners, Rick Wiebe teaches us how to create caricature noses, and John Krantz teaches us everything we need to know about wood.

We have two profiles this issue… see some beautiful carvings from the National Caricature Carving Competition and take a ride on a Carver’s Cruise.

There are also a couple of new things for people to try—learn all about boomerangs and how to create your very own, and if you are ambitious enough, rev up your chainsaw and follow along with Jamie Doeren as he creates a Chainsaw-Carved Viking right before your very eyes.

Ivan Whillock, Ol’ Don, and Marcia Berkall continue their tradition of offering us some of the most useful information needed in our day-to-day carving, and Fred and Elaine Stenman challenge us with a colorful Howling Wolf that will make us all want to become relief carvers.

I hope you enjoy this issue, and I invite you to pass along any questions and comments you may have. Share a “Reader’s Tip,” join the Carving Magazine.com Forum, recommend your favorite website for our “Woodcarving on the Web” pages, or submit a project—we are always looking for original projects to share with our readers.

Till next time… Happy Carving!
