[Woodcarver] New member and a query

[Clive Goss]

Welcome John,
How is bonny Scotland these days, I am a resettled Welshman, moved to Nova Scotia, (means New Scotland) Canada in 1985.
Looks like you have been carving for a while, some really nice caricatures you have there.
Anyhow, welcome to the list, you have joined a great resource.
All the best.

         Evening,
                          I'm new to the group and a newbie to carving, started a year ago.

            So my contributions will mostly in the form of questions.

          By choice I live in the country of my origins, Scotland.
        One disadvantage here is there is little interest in wood carving.   Various reasons for this but it  means I carve on my own.  However the web has given me access to a pool of knowledge that would not be available to anyone locally, where ever they lived.

          I enjoy caricature carving but have managed to give chip carving a go.

         I came across a picture of a chip carving and contacted the carver.  The pattern is basket weave.
        Although I've a few books and patterns I do n't have this.  It may be that its in Wanyne Barton's first book which I'd buy if I knew for certain that it was there.
        Can any member help me with this?
