This fascinating approach to learning the basic skills for carving incised letters features a technique which requires only one carving tool, a carving knife which may be purchased from Wolff Knife Works or you can make one using the specs provided in the book. Although a wide range of methods for carving letters is available, Mr. Wolff presents this method as good for both beginner and professional. It eliminates the need for a collection of expensive carving tools. Once this method is mastered it is easy to incorporate other techniques. For those of you who already use traditional methods, you will find the knife carving method greatly increase your carving speed. The techniques used in this book have been proven to help non-carvers get into woodcarving and understanding carving with the grain in a very un-threatening environment. That is why this book is recommended for beginning carvers who may not have any desire in carving signs. The Textbook for Carving Letters has been selected as the textbook for everyone taking the Basic Woodcarving Classes at the University of New Mexico~Taos.
