Thread: J. Wood, by request

Nice! Very nice!

Your 20+ years of carving really show!

Back when the world was young and I was in Boy Scouts, my dad bought me a block of wood with the dimensions outlined to carve out a neck slide. He had to do it as I was just as lost then as I am now and I'm humbled!

Thank you very much everyone!
Glad you guys liked them. Yes Cudarunner I remember my older brother doing one of those and my dad helping him with it. I was amazed at the process. I guess something stuck with me. By the time I was of age the Scouting thing passed me by. Ahhh, son #2,,,,

These are deceiving though as there really isn't much to them. They look like they'd be heavy or bulky but you can see they're maybe the thickness of two pennies and taper over their length. I was more concerned about carving through them besides just into them. They're light as a feather.

Besides , a razor from J. Wood, just had to have wood scales.

WOW!! love the scales

No words to describe how much I want. I, like everyone esle was blown away.

Man, I know you said you were a professional wood worker, but I didn't realize that included carving - what an original and cool scale job! How long did those scales take? 15 or 20 hours?

Actually, I'm primarily a wood carver for the past 22 yrs. or so,, and I do woodworking as well. The scales didn't really take all that long. I think I spend an evening or so on them.

Your not just a wood carver,You are an artist of the highest caliber,Thx for posting your work.

Excellent work. Very impressive. If I wouldn't have seen the pictures of you carving the wood I would have thought the scales were wrapped in leather.

Thanks guys, you're all being very generous. But as it is with all of us , our particular skills from one thing flow into another. It's what we do.
