Woodcarving Magazine March-April 2012 Edizione posteriore

In issue 125 of Woodcarving we catch up with John Surplice, a carver with an unusual method and a wonderful variety of carvings, showcasing wood in all its different forms. In part 6 of Peter Clothier’s series of hand tools, we look at specialist shaping tools and their uses. For projects, Chris Pye talks us through the carving of his Victorian lintel, Andy Hibberd shows us how he carved his stone Art Deco gecko and Andrew Thomas explains the process of carving his sculptural lips. Plus Mike Wood’s incredibly lifelike buzzard.

Rick Harney is featured in our ’20 minutes with’ and we encourage our readers to join us for our International Woodcarver of The Year competition where one of our readers will receive the prestigious title.

On test this month, we have tools from Woodart, Igraine and Woodoc plus The Carver’s Toolbag where we give a roundup of all the latest tools and products specially selected to meet your carving needs. Another great issue, so don’t miss out on yours!
