  • Handled White Oak
    Thank you Irfan. I'm not worried about the handles cracking I cut them in the face grain side and white oak is pretty strong. and fairly flexible when thin. I've made spring salad tongs from white oak and haven't had any trouble with them cracking yet. I was having trouble with the white oak...

    Wow! What are your carving tool preferences?
    Nino - Thanks.

    I suppose it's best defined as I use a woodburner with a sharp skew tip to carve with. The burning cuts into the wood and provides the details. I use a Mastercarver (micromotor) to remove wood from the surface.

    Vince, I think that's very nice and it seems like a job well done.
    Are you worried about handles cracking?

    I think you’ve done a great job highlighting the beauty in that piece of wood.
