Tom Wolfe Carves Fancy Canes
Leading woodcarver Tom Wolfe guides the reader through the carving of a particularly clever cane, a fancy bird that doubles as a nutcracker.
The cane is a simple accessory with a lot of personality. Some are sleek and elegant, others are twisted and gnarled, others are bright and silly. Canes make great carving projects for many reasons—they have endless creative potential, require only a relatively small time investment, and they are good pieces to practice on. They make terrific gifts, and are always top sellers at shows.
In this book, Tom Wolfe guides the reader through the carving of a particularly clever cane, a fancy bird that doubles as a nutcracker.
