    This is wonderful! I'm a novice at carving, but an expert in finishing, gesso, water-gilding, etc. I'm trying to pick up woodcarving for replicating medieval polychrome sculpture. I spent yesterday repeatedly ruining a V-chisel, and only toward the end discovered the trick of rounding the point. *sigh* If only I'd found this earlier, I'd have one more chisel at factory-length!

  • @antonellochessa5389
    @antonellochessa5389 Před 4 měsíci

    Mary, soon I will need to apply a water based clear satin finish on a wooden knife with a carved handle I'm making in linden(the European one, I live in Italy). I have read that It absorbs a lot and because of that I risk blotchiness or unevenness. What do you advise me to do? Sealing first with shellac?

    • @marymay155
      @marymay155 Před 4 měsíci

      A coat of shellac should seal up the grain. Soft wood definitely will get blotchy. I would suggest testing it on another piece of wood to see how it absorbs. Sometimes it's difficult to predict.

    I wondered why even after sharpening a V chisel I still had trouble getting it to dig into soft wood. Your explanation makes perfect sense. Tks. I've been using a triangle of corse to fine stones that I got in Mountain View Arkansas 25 years ago. They have been a pleasure to have.
