[Woodcarver] stone carving

[cynda douglas]

I recall one time someone in here was wanting to know what to use for 
background texture in relief carving.  I was wondering if some leather 
working background tools would work, and I'm still wondering. :-)  There 
have also been some interested in carving talc or soap stone 
(steatite).  Thot I'd pass along this URL to a place answering a query of 
mine.  It also has links.
In there is a bush pick, used to texture stone or knock off a layer over an 
area.  Looks like it would also work, (gently) in wood, but I don't know 
for sure.  I haven't  tried relief carving.  So, anyone 
interested--<http://www.stonesculptorssupplies.com>www.stonesculptorssupplies.com

I also have been digging around and found some other addresses where I have 
purchased soap stone and alabaster.  Just email me if you want them.
