Cross over woodworker was - Re: [Woodcarver] Carving basswood egg question

<Rod what's a cross over woodworker? Please

My super short saga: 

Started building along with Norm from the New Yankee Workshop.  Got 
disenfranchised after realizing I could not afford all the power tools he 
used.  Found "The Porch" - old tool list and found out people actually 
built stuff before power tools - back to building and now collecting. 

Then by chance I followed a link that someone posted to a website about 
Ian Norbury.  I went and checked it out and could not believe what could 
be created artistically with wood.  I set out to get a bunch of 5 dollar 
fantasies (magazines), some cheap tools, and set out carving.  So far I 
have carved maybe 5 things - a couple of which even impressed me. 

I believe the carving will soon take over most of my wood working.  But 
first I need to finish a rocking chair that I am building so I have 
somewhere comfortable to sit.
