    Default Carved camel bone

    I've been watching the forum for some time, without posting anything. I've learnt a lot and I feel the need to give something in return. The work of some users here was inspirational and the spark for this project was "mycarver". The project dates back last year, was followed by a second one and I'm about to start another if it keeps on raining so I'll try to update it while I'm getting along.
    There we go, I'll leave the pictures "talk"

    Awesome work mate
    Great design

    How much harder is it to carve the intricate shapes etc without the rotating holder?

    So I am more than just a little bit impressed. I have been messing around and trying little bits of carving here and there. However my online research has left me lacking in ideas for hand carving tools. There is a lot of stuff about using rotary tools (Dremel) but not much on hand carving. What chisels are you using? I would like to know more.
