Sometimes a few pieces of wood and a free evening are all it takes to discover a new hobby. This compact set has 6 wood blocks in three sizes (2.5×2.5×10 cm, 5×5×10 cm and 5×5×15 cm), so you can carve a small, a medium and a large figure and find out what you enjoy most. It’s a small investment for the satisfaction of a figure made with your own hands.
Your first carving experience should be a pleasure, not a letdown caused by a cracked or crooked block. We work with woodcarving tools, so the blocks in this set have straight faces and true corners, and your layout lines go on accurately the first time. Six blocks are just enough to try every size without half of them gathering dust on a shelf. The set is small and light, so it’s easy to take on a trip, to the cabin or on a camping weekend. At stameski.com you can add a knife and finishing products to the same order.
Here’s a simple weekend plan. Start with the 2.5×2.5×10 cm block: carve a gnome, a little bird or a keychain to get a feel for the tool and the grain. Next, use the 5×5×10 cm block for a seated animal, an owl or a mushroom, where you can practice working in volume. Save the 5×5×15 cm block for the finale: a human figure or a statuette that makes a lovely gift. Before each piece, sketch the silhouette on two sides, remove waste with a sloyd knife, refine details with a detail knife and always carve with the grain. Finish your figures with oil or wax, or paint them.
Six blocks, one weekend and your first self-carved figure. Add the set to your cart with a knife and see how quickly carving becomes your favorite pastime.
