Chip Carving by Daniel Clay contains everything you need to achieve elegant, and seemingly complex, carved patterns in wood. With a single knife and only a handful of techniques, you can create beautiful surface designs that will stop people in their tracks. Safe and easily accessible, chip carving can be done almost anywhere you have a work surface or a chair to sit in. A craft deeply rooted in history, you can create designs ranging from the traditional carving patterns of ancient cultures to wholly modern designs of your own making.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDaniel Clay taught himself chip carving, first aided by the books of Wayne Barton before engaging in a deeper, ongoing personal study of the craft in its various incarnations throughout the ages and around the world. He has written about chip carving for Fine Woodworking magazine and also travels and teaches chip carving at venues around the US.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFeatures:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLearn three simple cuts that form the basis of every chip-carved surface.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStep-by-step guidance to help you achieve any type of surface carving you can imagine\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHow to create crisp, clean designs by following a logical process\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIllustrations for completing a carving with the perfect paint or finish.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSharpening and honing advice to keep your knives gliding smoothly\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBeautiful practice and carving templates to incorporate in your own work.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecifications:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCover Style: Softcover\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProduct Size: 8\" × 10\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePage Count: 208 pages\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eISBN: 9781951217402\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePublisher: Blue Hills Press\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat’s Included:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003e(1) Chip Carving: Techniques for Carving Beautiful Patterns by Hand by Daniel Clay\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Blue Hills Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43403082694794,"sku":"186098","price":27.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0616\/1711\/1178\/files\/186098_000_001.jpg?v=1720480280","url":"https:\/\/www.woodcraft.com\/products\/blue-hills-press-chip-carving-techniques-for-carving-beautiful-patterns-by-hand","provider":"Woodcraft","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
