Description

Carve a decorative spoon out of basswood. There will be several designs to choose from. Red River Valley Wood Carving club member, Chris Pinotti will be teaching how to carve a decorative spoon out of basswood. The designs include variations of the celtic knot. Chris assures us that although it looks complicated, it can be completed by a beginner. More experienced carvers can add elements for more of a challenge. This is a project a beginner can do, but some experience with carving is beneficial. You will use a knife, v-tool, and some gouges. There are tools to borrow if you don't have any. Please note on the registration form. The class is $35 paid to Red River Valley Woodcarvers a materials fee of $10 paid to Chris on the day of the class. You must pre-register for the class.
