Hi Maricha,

We have students that have difficulty slicing the feathers due to their
height.  Because we place the wood in a vise and slice down from the
top, it adds even more height to the project.  (You can see this on our
site under "tools" with the 3-inch drawknife.)  We have added the
Jerry-Rig to our line (not shown) which allows for a second position.
The vise has 2 pieces:  One for top of the table working; the other
position for a lower, side of the table position.  It also has
attachments for plates, screws, etc.  Most folks like it very much,
whether taller or shorter.  They also offer a craving arm which can go
as low as you like. (I can put you in touch with Jerry-Rig off list if
you like.)

It's so nice that you're working with your student to bypass this
situation.
Sally

one of my students is very short in stature, and i placed myself in her
shoes, and realized how difficult it was for her to reach out and carve
.... so my delightful husband made a box to stand on ... she feels on
top of the world, she is very artistic and is doing wonders.....

any comments on how the list members feel about the right height for
carving whilst standing or sitting, would be much appreciated.

best wishes
