[Woodcarver] CARVING SUBJECT QUESTION!!!!

[Joe Dillett]

Hi Harry,

Drawing and clay are excellent ways to visualize, work out your design and
check for size. You can do the clay smaller and just scale up the dimensions
for your finished piece. With the clay you can check all your sizes before
purchasing the block.

There is really no substitute for research, planning, drawing and modeling
in clay. Each step you will make refinements to your design and more clearly
visualize the finished work before you begin in wood.

hello everyone,

  well temperatures are finally well under the freezing point.
  however my mood  is still high up where it is nice and warm.

  i met santa four times yesterday, i swear he looks different every time i 
see him,lol.

  i have  a question regarding 3d carving.

  i am in the designing faze of 4 abstract carvings (big ones)
  my main problem is how do i make sure i have the dimensions correct before 
i start buying the  and  carving.

  i  have tought about using a 3 d computerdrawing program but i am to much 
of a cluts to work with that.

  i just  would  like  to  have  some   kind  of  a  model  first  to see 
how  it  would  look  before  carving. the  wood is costly and i would like 
to have my bases covered before so i  don't screw up.

  does anyone  have  some  good  idears   about  this  and  what  do  you 
usually  do  to  solve  this  problem?
