Hi Carvers!!

We have another fantastic issue of Carving Magazine for you! This issue is filled with interesting features, fun projects, and great tips for carving.

We printed a survey in our previous issue. Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts with us. Our goal is to offer exactly what you are looking for. We have incorporated many of your suggestions in this new issue. Many of our photographs are larger, we found some wonderful woodcarvers to profile, and we continue to inspire you by featuring a variety of amazing carvings. Of course, we still include the popular step-by-step projects. Many of you are also interested to find out more about people's work areas and toolboxes, so we have some interesting photos for you.

Our online Readers' Forum and Live Chat are a lot of fun! Be sure to log on and read interesting information about carving and chat LIVE with other woodcarvers.

We hope you enjoy this issue of Carving Magazine™! As always, feel free to contact me if there is something specific you'd like to see us include in the magazine.

Have an awesome day!!
