But you are right in that most turners tools are not as sharp.

I have successfully used a reciprocating gouge (Ryobi ) on punky driftwood. like an electric knife cuts right through angle food cake where a butcher knife just compress's it, the reciprocating gouge goes smoothly through the punky wood. perhaps this will work for you. another thought is from a guy in Florida that saturates construction grade pine 2x4s with marine varnish to make it stable, then carves miniatures 1 to2 inches high from it. It doesn't penetrate real deep so he has to constantly re varnish as he cuts away the wood. in his case he is trying to have a very strong but flexible wood structure left so it won't break (such as flower stems or peoples legs arms) and marine varnish is flexible compared to other finishes, yet "stiff" enough to carve..

For informative and fun REAL TIME conversations with a number of the carvers on "The List", come to the Woodcarver chats. We don't always talk about carving, but if anyone has a question or comment, we can get serious in a hurry. Get to know the people behind the names. And bring you carving questions with you!!! We meet on Wednesday nights at 9:30 PM Eastern and on Sundays at 4:30 PM Eastern. If you are NOT using an IRC chat program, I think you will like these simplified instructions!!! Just click on one of the links below...either will take you directly to #Woodcarverchat http://www.starlink-irc.org/java/java_williamslake.html?chan=#Woodcarverchat http://www.starlink-irc.org/java/java_stopover.html?chan=#woodcarverchat This may take a LONG time to load!!!!!!! Don't give up. When it finally does load, you will be asked to type in a nickname.....then click connect, and wait a little bit longer. The chat screen will open. Type something in the narrow horizontal space just below the chat screen and hit you enter key. Nothing to it! :) If you are using WebTV or still have trouble getting there, one of these links will work...we just save them as a last resort in case all other links don't work: http://63.79.14.90/cgi-bin/irc.cgi http://cobra-ip1.vipershells.com/cgi-bin/irc.cgi http://stopover.ky.us.starlink-irc.org/cgi-bin/irc.cgi (This one will have the fastest connection) Type in a nickname where it says"nickname"i Where is says, "channel", type in #woodcarverchat (don't forget the #). ******* If you are using an mIRC chat program: 1. Log onto your ISP. 2. Open mIRC. You should see a box "mIRC Options". If you don't then click on View then on "Options" Fill in the information there...you do NOT have to put in your real name or email address. For security purposes, make them up. Do put in the nickname you want and an alternative. 4. Click on the button with the sunburst icon, just to the right of the button that says, "Connect to Server". Where it says "IRC Network", scroll down until you see "Starlink-IRC" and highlight that so it shows in the window. There is also a Starlink network, so make sure that the one you select has the "IRC" after it. Now click on the arrow next to the IRC server window. That will list a number of Starlink-IRC servers....select one of them. The Starlink-IRC random server will automatically pick one of the servers for you, so you can use that one. With one of the Starlink-IRC servers in the window, click on "Connect to Server" If the Starlink Random Server is not in your mirc program you can add it: Click the "add" button. Where it says "Description" type "Starlink Random Server" Where it says "IRC Server" type IRC.STARLINK-IRC.ORG Port should be 6664,6665,6666,6667,6668,6669 (all of those with no spaces between them) and "Group" is Starlink-IRC 5. Once connected, you'll see lots of scrolling text. When that stops, type /join #Woodcarverchat in the window at the bottom and hit your "enter" key. (you need the / and #, and Woodcarverchat must be spelled exactly right) I have put these instructions on a web page with direct links at http://artwebmaine.com/woodcarverchat.html You may want to bookmark it. ******* See you there!

Out of all my tools, I dislike the Two Cherries as the palm tools are too large and the steel is the most brittle of all I have. They are not the most comfortable tools, at least for me. I find Ramelson steel to be fine and they hold and edge well but I also hear that the quality control has gotten pretty bad and our club will no longer sell them. Too bad. Denny's are a step above in steel, they come sharp but I think his sweeps and sizes are the most inconsistent, #3's are more like a 2 compared to others and some sizes are off, like the 3/8 #9 isn't anywhere close to a 3/8 and makes a perfect 1/4 #9, which is funny cause he doesn't make a 1/4 #9 :) The Henry Taylors seem to be spot on in sweep and size. Some one told me that it takes for ever to get one on a stone sharp but once it is sharp they stay sharp better than any tool he has. Just some of my observations on the tools I have. Now I shall carve!

In the history of wood carving, the disparity of sweeps is a only a fairly recent problem, because few European carvers would "mix and match" their tools as many American carvers do today. As recently as 40 years ago there were many tool makers spread throughout Europe. Tools were made in Spain, Italy, Germany, Austria, in small local factories that made tools only for the carvers in the area. Liken that to the small breweries that were once spread through the small towns, before the national breweries took over and made a standard brew available everywhere. The tools were made largely by hand, each hand forged and hand ground in the tradition of the local factory. The sweep of the tool was set at the forge, and fine-shaped by the grinding wheel. There was no drive to standardize the sweeps across the various countries because there was very little intermixing of the different brands. A carver in an area used the tools manufactured there. At any rate, it's unlikely that the independent factories would throw out their tried and true forms and wheels to make their sweeps match the competition's or even see the need for a universal standard. Only relatively recently, with the disappearance of most of the local factories, have the carvers had access to several tool brands with their varying sweeps. In America, where tools are imported from many different countries, the disparity is more of an issue than in Europe where the carvers still mostly use the tools of their region. Standardization will automatically happen as fewer and fewer factories supply more and more of the tools, just as now a few breweries supply the same "standardized" beer everywhere. Drink Up!

Denny's are a step above in steel, they come sharp but I think his sweeps and sizes are the most inconsistent, #3's are more like a 2 compared to others and some?????? sizes are off, like the 3/8 #9 isn't anywhere close to a 3/8 and makes a perfect 1/4 #9, which is funny cause he doesn't make a 1/4 #9 :)????????????

Message-ID: Did you all know that at one time there were about 2400 different profiles available thru European manufacturers. About half have been lost to time. This is known from old shipping manifests uncovered in many parts of the world. The Sheffield list is considered the standard by which most companies manufacture the sweeps and profiles of their chisels. The Sheffield list was a descriptive list of carving profiles available in the 1800's in Sheffield, England, the city of legendary steel making fame. It is still pretty much adhered to by English manufacturers. Variations occur when the skew chisel is called the S1 or the #2 profile which changes the numbering of the sweeps down the line accordingly, depending on the maker. Americans companies being Americans of course, number their profiles in any manner they wish and even chose inches over the more standard metric equivalent. Throw in other countries, with their own numbering systems and there is lots of variations. If a serious woodcarver from 1000 years ago saw the profiles of the tools you use today, he would understand their purpose. The best thing I have found is to get a piece of corrugated cardboard and make an impression in the cardboard with the profiles of all your chisels and gouges, keeping like sweeps in columns. Small notations can be made to denote, skews, bents, fishtails, palms, etc. Bring this piece of cardboard with you when you are going somewhere where you might want to purchase tools. This way there is less of a chance that you will duplicate an edge.

In-Reply-To: References: Message-ID: Thank you for the idea. If I had only known about it years ago. Of course if everyone did that we would hurt the carving suppliers. The best thing I have found is to get a piece of corrugated cardboard and make an impression in the cardboard with the profiles of all your chisels and gouges, keeping like sweeps in columns. Small notations can be made to denote, skews, bents, fishtails, palms, etc. Bring this piece of cardboard with you when you are going somewhere where you might want to purchase tools. This way there is less of a chance that you will duplicate an edge. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Hand scaling a 5 foot, almost 50 lb, hand carved codfish using a few #9 chisels and a heavy mallet. While you are eating your hotdog's and macaroni salad, I am hard at work doing this tedious labor as my deadline approaches at the end of next week. Please eat a hamburger(make that a cheeseburger) for me and keep me in your thoughts. I will either be completely insane or dead by the time I am done the scales(and right now I can't decide which would be the better outcome). But my fish will be magnificent I think it will definitely outlive me. It is going to a four star hotel up in Cape Cod. After the scaling is finished I will be cutting and carving the 5 top and bottom fins, doing a little clean-up and sanding and then it is on to the painting and antiquing. To quote Mr. T, "I love it when a plan comes together". I am so happy that after weeks of gluing-up, hacking away with large chisels and a 30 oz mallet and lots of hand carving, it actually looks like what it is supposed to!

Stop in and chat with us! Here's how! We meet on Wednesday nights at 9:30 PM Eastern and on Sundays at 4:30 PM Eastern. If you are NOT using an IRC chat program, I think you will like these simplified instructions!!! Just click on one of the links below...either will take you directly to #Woodcarverchat http://www.starlink-irc.org/java/java_williamslake.html?chan=#Woodcarverchat http://www.starlink-irc.org/java/java_stopover.html?chan=#woodcarverchat This may take a LONG time to load!!!!!!! Don't give up. When it finally does load, you will be asked to type in a nickname.....then click connect, and wait a little bit longer. The chat screen will open. Type something in the narrow horizontal space just below the chat screen and hit you enter key. Nothing to it! :) If you are using WebTV or still have trouble getting there, one of these links will work...we just save them as a last resort in case all other links don't work: http://63.79.14.90/cgi-bin/irc.cgi http://cobra-ip1.vipershells.com/cgi-bin/irc.cgi http://stopover.ky.us.starlink-irc.org/cgi-bin/irc.cgi (This one will have the fastest connection) Type in a nickname where it says"nickname"i Where is says, "channel", type in #woodcarverchat (don't forget the #). ******* If you are using an mIRC chat program: 1. Log onto your ISP. 2. Open mIRC. You should see a box "mIRC Options". If you don't then click on View then on "Options" Fill in the information there...you do NOT have to put in your real name or email address. For security purposes, make them up. Do put in the nickname you want and an alternative. 4. Click on the button with the sunburst icon, just to the right of the button that says, "Connect to Server". Where it says "IRC Network", scroll down until you see "Starlink-IRC" and highlight that so it shows in the window. There is also a Starlink network, so make sure that the one you select has the "IRC" after it. Now click on the arrow next to the IRC server window. That will list a number of Starlink-IRC servers....select one of them. The Starlink-IRC random server will automatically pick one of the servers for you, so you can use that one. With one of the Starlink-IRC servers in the window, click on "Connect to Server" If the Starlink Random Server is not in your mirc program you can add it: Click the "add" button. Where it says "Description" type "Starlink Random Server" Where it says "IRC Server" type IRC.STARLINK-IRC.ORG Port should be 6664,6665,6666,6667,6668,6669 (all of those with no spaces between them) and "Group" is Starlink-IRC 5. Once connected, you'll see lots of scrolling text. When that stops, type /join #Woodcarverchat in the window at the bottom and hit your "enter" key. (you need the / and #, and Woodcarverchat must be spelled exactly right) I have put these instructions on a web page with direct links at http://artwebmaine.com/woodcarverchat.html You may want to bookmark it. ******* See you there! E-mail me off the list for additional information and instructions.

A few years ago the day job took me to Omaha several times. Tom and his wife had me over for dinner, and on one visit I stayed over Friday night and caught a meeting of the club he was a member of, the Midwest Woodcarvers. He was an awesome bird and caricature carver. I think my favorite was the scud missile launcher. Check out is military photo album as well. Some very interesting history there.

For informative and fun REAL TIME conversations with a number of the carvers on "The List", come to the Woodcarver chats. We don't always talk about carving, but if anyone has a question or comment, we can get serious in a hurry. Get to know the people behind the names. And bring you carving questions with you!!! We meet on Wednesday nights at 9:30 PM Eastern and on Sundays at 4:30 PM Eastern. If you are NOT using an IRC chat program, I think you will like these simplified instructions!!! Just click on one of the links below...either will take you directly to #Woodcarverchat http://www.starlink-irc.org/java/java_williamslake.html?chan=#Woodcarverchat http://www.starlink-irc.org/java/java_stopover.html?chan=#woodcarverchat This may take a LONG time to load!!!!!!! Don't give up. When it finally does load, you will be asked to type in a nickname.....then click connect, and wait a little bit longer. The chat screen will open. Type something in the narrow horizontal space just below the chat screen and hit you enter key. Nothing to it! :) If you are using WebTV or still have trouble getting there, one of these links will work...we just save them as a last resort in case all other links don't work: http://63.79.14.90/cgi-bin/irc.cgi http://cobra-ip1.vipershells.com/cgi-bin/irc.cgi http://stopover.ky.us.starlink-irc.org/cgi-bin/irc.cgi (This one will have the fastest connection) Type in a nickname where it says"nickname"i Where is says, "channel", type in #woodcarverchat (don't forget the #). ******* If you are using an mIRC chat program: 1. Log onto your ISP. 2. Open mIRC. You should see a box "mIRC Options". If you don't then click on View then on "Options" Fill in the information there...you do NOT have to put in your real name or email address. For security purposes, make them up. Do put in the nickname you want and an alternative. 4. Click on the button with the sunburst icon, just to the right of the button that says, "Connect to Server". Where it says "IRC Network", scroll down until you see "Starlink-IRC" and highlight that so it shows in the window. There is also a Starlink network, so make sure that the one you select has the "IRC" after it. Now click on the arrow next to the IRC server window. That will list a number of Starlink-IRC servers....select one of them. The Starlink-IRC random server will automatically pick one of the servers for you, so you can use that one. With one of the Starlink-IRC servers in the window, click on "Connect to Server" If the Starlink Random Server is not in your mirc program you can add it: Click the "add" button. Where it says "Description" type "Starlink Random Server" Where it says "IRC Server" type IRC.STARLINK-IRC.ORG Port should be 6664,6665,6666,6667,6668,6669 (all of those with no spaces between them) and "Group" is Starlink-IRC 5. Once connected, you'll see lots of scrolling text. When that stops, type /join #Woodcarverchat in the window at the bottom and hit your "enter" key. (you need the / and #, and Woodcarverchat must be spelled exactly right) I have put these instructions on a web page with direct links at http://artwebmaine.com/woodcarverchat.html You may want to bookmark it. ******* See you there!

I've done this before, primarily for use as a base for fish carvings due to the naturally nice appearance and interesting shapes. now I am thinking that it might be nice to carve something in it but am concerned about possible difficulties due to the fact that the wood is saturated with resin to the extent that it is almost translucent. In spite of this, when tested with a knife it seemed to cut beautifully, leaving a glasslike finish and no apparent stickiness or resin on the blade. Does anyone have experience carving such wood? Specifically: Does resin buildup on the hand tools become a problem after they are used a while? Will using power tool bits get clogged up if used on the wood? Will it sand well or just tend to gum up sandpaper? Actually, I am quite sure that I could be sucessful using hand tools to carve it but have more doubts about power tools and what finish to use. This is important because l am interested in using it to carve a natural finish fish that could be mounted on a piece of the natural root. That would, of course, require some power carving and sanding to get a glasslike finish. Assuming this can be done, what problems might I have applying a finish and what type of finishes would be recommended? I would be interested in learning from anyone who has had experience carving very resinous wood.

There are incompatibilities between browsers that could do it and I'm sure there are other reasons as well. One of those would be if you're behind a firewall, then corporate policies and how they process things could foul things up to. Bunches of reasons.

It is my experience that some MS products for building web pages play well only with Internet Exploder. IE is not open web standards compliant, and it may be that some MS web building tools are also not open standards compliant. I've occasionally had some problems with code that played well with several web compliant browsers but had problems displaying correctly on IE. There does appear to be some small differences between the code for the last visible photo and the next. I'm not a good enough hand coder to figure out the problem with a quick look, unfortunately. It's possible that Front Page burped at the wrong moment when you were building the web page, and that might be the cause (and it might be something else entirely). Rebuilding from the last visible photo might fix the problem . . .

I'm more inclined to believe it is a microsoft code issue. The page was done with FrontPage, which has been/is being phased out. I used Front Page only once, many years ago and stopped because of issues like this. I much prefer to use a program...or write my own code...that will be easily viewable in any browser. A lot of what is done in microsoft programs will not work properly in other browswers.

Old Joe * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * Subject: [Woodcarver] Another old Gouge Hi all, Ibought an old gouge this winter and wonder if any of you can help me identify the source. The gouge traces a circle of about 22 mm and is 18 mm wide. on the tang I see a H with an arrow pointing up above the H. I can read J. HOWAR? CAST STEE? on the tang. The gouge is about 26 cm long and this is equally divided between the wooden handle and the steel. The gouge is sharpened on the inside of the channel (opposite to all my other gouges). Any ideas on the history sourse company etc will be welcome. Keep smiling Doug -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

While browsing throuht an email from a friend which I responded to, it went through my addresses and sent out to all. Again sorry to all that received this e-mail. Renda" This is not the first time this has happened to a List member. On many of the social networks, when you join the network sends a bot through your mailbox and automatically sends an invite to everyone in your address book, unless you take specific steps to prohibit that practice. So a word to the wise - if you join a social network, carefully review options and settings before committing. Renda's membership will be removed from moderation and returned to normal status.

For informative and fun REAL TIME conversations with a number of the carvers on "The List", come to the Woodcarver chats. We don't always talk about carving, but if anyone has a question or comment, we can get serious in a hurry. Get to know the people behind the names. And bring you carving questions with you!!! We meet on Wednesday nights at 9:30 PM Eastern and on Sundays at 4:30 PM Eastern. If you are NOT using an IRC chat program, I think you will like these simplified instructions!!! Just click on one of the links below...either will take you directly to #Woodcarverchat http://www.starlink-irc.org/java/java_williamslake.html?chan=#Woodcarverchat http://www.starlink-irc.org/java/java_stopover.html?chan=#woodcarverchat This may take a LONG time to load!!!!!!! Don't give up. When it finally does load, you will be asked to type in a nickname.....then click connect, and wait a little bit longer. The chat screen will open. Type something in the narrow horizontal space just below the chat screen and hit you enter key. Nothing to it! :) If you are using WebTV or still have trouble getting there, one of these links will work...we just save them as a last resort in case all other links don't work: http://63.79.14.90/cgi-bin/irc.cgi http://cobra-ip1.vipershells.com/cgi-bin/irc.cgi http://stopover.ky.us.starlink-irc.org/cgi-bin/irc.cgi (This one will have the fastest connection) Type in a nickname where it says"nickname"i Where is says, "channel", type in #woodcarverchat (don't forget the #). ******* If you are using an mIRC chat program: 1. Log onto your ISP. 2. Open mIRC. You should see a box "mIRC Options". If you don't then click on View then on "Options" Fill in the information there...you do NOT have to put in your real name or email address. For security purposes, make them up. Do put in the nickname you want and an alternative. 4. Click on the button with the sunburst icon, just to the right of the button that says, "Connect to Server". Where it says "IRC Network", scroll down until you see "Starlink-IRC" and highlight that so it shows in the window. There is also a Starlink network, so make sure that the one you select has the "IRC" after it. Now click on the arrow next to the IRC server window. That will list a number of Starlink-IRC servers....select one of them. The Starlink-IRC random server will automatically pick one of the servers for you, so you can use that one. With one of the Starlink-IRC servers in the window, click on "Connect to Server" If the Starlink Random Server is not in your mirc program you can add it: Click the "add" button. Where it says "Description" type "Starlink Random Server" Where it says "IRC Server" type IRC.STARLINK-IRC.ORG Port should be 6664,6665,6666,6667,6668,6669 (all of those with no spaces between them) and "Group" is Starlink-IRC 5. Once connected, you'll see lots of scrolling text. When that stops, type /join #Woodcarverchat in the window at the bottom and hit your "enter" key. (you need the / and #, and Woodcarverchat must be spelled exactly right) I have put these instructions on a web page with direct links at http://artwebmaine.com/woodcarverchat.html You may want to bookmark it. ******* See you there! E-mail me off the list for additional information and instructions.

For informative and fun REAL TIME conversations with a number of the carvers on "The List", come to the Woodcarver chats. We don't always talk about carving, but if anyone has a question or comment, we can get serious in a hurry. Get to know the people behind the names. And bring you carving questions with you!!! We meet on Wednesday nights at 9:30 PM Eastern and on Sundays at 4:30 PM Eastern. If you are NOT using an IRC chat program, I think you will like these simplified instructions!!! Just click on one of the links below...either will take you directly to #Woodcarverchat http://www.starlink-irc.org/java/java_williamslake.html?chan=#Woodcarverchat http://www.starlink-irc.org/java/java_stopover.html?chan=#woodcarverchat This may take a LONG time to load!!!!!!! Don't give up. When it finally does load, you will be asked to type in a nickname.....then click connect, and wait a little bit longer. The chat screen will open. Type something in the narrow horizontal space just below the chat screen and hit you enter key. Nothing to it! :) If you are using WebTV or still have trouble getting there, one of these links will work...we just save them as a last resort in case all other links don't work: http://63.79.14.90/cgi-bin/irc.cgi http://cobra-ip1.vipershells.com/cgi-bin/irc.cgi http://stopover.ky.us.starlink-irc.org/cgi-bin/irc.cgi (This one will have the fastest connection) Type in a nickname where it says"nickname"i Where is says, "channel", type in #woodcarverchat (don't forget the #). ******* If you are using an mIRC chat program: 1. Log onto your ISP. 2. Open mIRC. You should see a box "mIRC Options". If you don't then click on View then on "Options" Fill in the information there...you do NOT have to put in your real name or email address. For security purposes, make them up. Do put in the nickname you want and an alternative. 4. Click on the button with the sunburst icon, just to the right of the button that says, "Connect to Server". Where it says "IRC Network", scroll down until you see "Starlink-IRC" and highlight that so it shows in the window. There is also a Starlink network, so make sure that the one you select has the "IRC" after it. Now click on the arrow next to the IRC server window. That will list a number of Starlink-IRC servers....select one of them. The Starlink-IRC random server will automatically pick one of the servers for you, so you can use that one. With one of the Starlink-IRC servers in the window, click on "Connect to Server" If the Starlink Random Server is not in your mirc program you can add it: Click the "add" button. Where it says "Description" type "Starlink Random Server" Where it says "IRC Server" type IRC.STARLINK-IRC.ORG Port should be 6664,6665,6666,6667,6668,6669 (all of those with no spaces between them) and "Group" is Starlink-IRC 5. Once connected, you'll see lots of scrolling text. When that stops, type /join #Woodcarverchat in the window at the bottom and hit your "enter" key. (you need the / and #, and Woodcarverchat must be spelled exactly right) I have put these instructions on a web page with direct links at http://artwebmaine.com/woodcarverchat.html You may want to bookmark it. ******* See you there!

Try it out on a carved scarp piece of antler. Brush on well, then wipe off the high parts of the relief, leaving the stain in the valleys.

Hi Evan - I've never carved antler before, but you might find that a wood stain will give you better coloring of the antler material. Try it out on a carved scarp piece of antler. Brush on well, then wipe off the high parts of the relief, leaving the stain in the valleys. Control the darkness by the amount of time you leave the stain on, and the degree you wipe it off.

Gel stains dry on the surface so you can add more stain on light areas to even out the color.

If you bleach the antler it will deteriorate some of the interior so you need to be careful but can wash on the bleach to lighten if you like. Hope that helps some.

I'm surprised so little woodcarving mail and nothing on the Roundup. We were there for 2 days and then took the long cut back home. George/Ann Reinfried , Jack Miller and gang did a great job organizing and hosting. It ran very smooth and had a wide variety of instructors. Many were instructors we don't get to see here in Michigan. I took one day with Pete LeClair. It was great !! If I remember 25% of what Pete taught I'll be way ahead ! The second day I took a woodspirit class from some guy from upscale, upstate New York --MIke, Mike hmmmmmmm Bloomquist. Mike has unique way of doing woodspirits so I picked up some good tips. His class was very regimented and he yelled at and picked on me the whole class. This I could not understand !! :) Mary Ann surprised me a took a 2 day woodburning class (yeah !) I finally got to meet Maura and the famous Harold I kept hearing stories about. Floyd was there maintaining a low profile and the famous Michigan Hat lady (hope Mom is better) was there when Mom let her. After Honesdale I met Chris Lubkemann the twig carver totally by accident and spent a n hour or so with him 2 different days. Nice guy and very interesting ! I'll have pictures up ASAP but know it will be awhile. Bets to all !!

The originator owns all rights to the material. He/she can choose to give away or sell some, none, or all of those rights. By buying the book or magazine, you purchase certain rights as expressed in the copyright notice. The best way to find out what you have purchased is to look at the copyright notice. Most often the authors want to protect reproduction of the pattern, because that is what they are selling. Often they grant the carver the right to make and sell carvings based on the patterns, but not to reproduce or sell the patterns. There are a few who present the pattern "for instructional purposes only" and restrict even the selling of carvings made from the patterns. They have that right. Remember, by buying the book you are not automatically buying all rights, or even necessarily the commercial rights to the material. Some authors offer the patterns with the assumption that they will be used strictly by amateurs and not by people who are in carving for commercial purposes. Enforcement is up to the holder of the copyright. People with clout, Disney, for example, have much more success in protecting their products from unauthorized reproduction than others. The average carver has no such power. A lot of unauthorized copying takes place because there is a misunderstanding of the rights or an inability--or reluctance--of the holder of the copyright to enforce them. Since most of the authors are ordinary folks like you and me, some don't care whether you sell carvings from their patterns or not. Some care but are "too nice" to do anything about it. Chances are, however, the author is reachable. I'd bet most would appreciate being asked for permission if there is a doubt. Ivan Whillock Studio 122 NE 1st Avenue Faribault, MN 55021 *********************************************************** Hi Cynda, "Ok, new question: How does one get a copywrite? on carvings, drawings, patterns, etc???" There are two things of copyright you are probably confusing. You *Have* a copyright the moment you create whatever it is. Boom! Done deal! What you are more likely asking is how to register a copyright. That is done through the Library of Congress, LOC.gov. For my books, I am required to send two copies plus the $60 fee (for each title) and then maybe 6 or 12 weeks later, I get a very official form, much like a propety deed, stating my registered ownership fo the copyright to teh work. The process itself is easy and clear, the forms are there on the LOC page, just print and fill out and submit. :) Jud *********************************************************** Hi Cynda, "That I knew, the registered one, but what about the copywrights I see on web sites, pictures, etc. There is only one of each carving, etc. I see the copywrite sign, c within a circle, on these things. Does that had any weight? Does marking each article, piece of art, etc have any legal substance?" Yes and no. As I said, it is copyright the moment you create it. Anything beyond that is a matter of what you have to prove that copyright if the need ever arose. Registering it with the LOC is one way, and for printed material, the standard. For works of art, the statement is soemitmes added to reproductions of it or displays of it, such as an image on a web page, mainly to make clear that takign a photo of it is prohibited. For instance, on one of my woodcarving albums, though clear that I own the copyrights to anything I have created and the images of them that I created, I have not noted anything and don't care if anyone wants to download copies of those images, with one exception: the piece I commissioned by Tange, to which I also own the copyright, I do state in the caption my claim and specifically prohibit copying or reprocution of that image without prior written permission of the copyright owner, ie, me. So the legal fact of copyright exists upon creation. Marking the piece is a statement that you are prepared to enforce your rights under that legal protection. :) Jud *********************************************************** Hi Cynda, Any copyright has weight but you need to go through the expense of enforcing it by filing a civil action. The court decides, based on the evidence, if your copyright has been violated. To get anything from civil actions you need to prove lose of income directly or through reputation. There have been cases where I sold my copyright for more than the original artwork like a pattern for the Last Supper. The copyright was sold to a different individual than the original work. On some commissions, where copyable work is involved, I quote two prices, one for the original work and one price for the copyright. Most of my work the copyright stays with me after I sell the work. Copyright can be another source of income. Another reason for copyrights is to maintain the rights to produce it. I had a product line that I added new designs every year. One company was copying them as painting and not carvings. I decided not to enforce my copyright because, even though they were copying my ideas, their product was different enough to not negatively effect my income. Over the years that company forgot where they got the patterns and filed for there own copyright. Than they tried to enforce they're copyright and told me to stop producing them. Fortunately I was able to show them that my copyright per-dated theirs. If I had not copyrighted them it would have been more difficult for me to prove that I had the original design and I could have lost that whole product line. The link for the copyright forms is http://www.loc.gov/copyright/forms/ True story about a woodcarver friend of mine in Milwaukee. A beer company commissioned him to design a belt buckle depicting the end of a barrel with their logo. Through negotiation it was decided that the woodcarver would maintain rights to the copyright and only supply the beer company with 200 cast belt buckles. A year or so later a foundry took a buckle and copied it and started selling them. The woodcarver went to his attorney to enforce his copyright. The attorney said it wasn't worth the effort. However about two years after that the attorney called the woodcarver and said now it was worth it because they could prove the foundry had produced thousands and the original pattern degraded so they could prove lose of reputation by the poor quality. His settlement was substantial enough to build him a new building and make his life comfortable. Find a good attorney to help you understand copyright law. There have been significant changes to copyright law in the last few years. Check with your local art league or university for attorneys who donate their time to helping the arts. These are the attorneys that can help you because they deal with it more often and are more willing to donate all or a portion of their time. Joe Dillett The Carving Shop 645 E.

For informative and fun REAL TIME conversations with a number of the carvers on "The List", come to the Woodcarver chats. We don't always talk about carving, but if anyone has a question or comment, we can get serious in a hurry. Get to know the people behind the names. And bring you carving questions with you!!! We meet on Wednesday nights at 9:30 PM Eastern and on Sundays at 4:30 PM Eastern. If you are NOT using an IRC chat program, I think you will like these simplified instructions!!! Just click on one of the links below...either will take you directly to #Woodcarverchat http://www.starlink-irc.org/java/java_williamslake.html?chan=#Woodcarverchat http://www.starlink-irc.org/java/java_stopover.html?chan=#woodcarverchat This may take a LONG time to load!!!!!!! Don't give up. When it finally does load, you will be asked to type in a nickname.....then click connect, and wait a little bit longer. The chat screen will open. Type something in the narrow horizontal space just below the chat screen and hit you enter key. Nothing to it! :) If you are using WebTV or still have trouble getting there, one of these links will work...we just save them as a last resort in case all other links don't work: http://63.79.14.90/cgi-bin/irc.cgi http://cobra-ip1.vipershells.com/cgi-bin/irc.cgi http://stopover.ky.us.starlink-irc.org/cgi-bin/irc.cgi (This one will have the fastest connection) Type in a nickname where it says"nickname"i Where is says, "channel", type in #woodcarverchat (don't forget the #). ******* If you are using an mIRC chat program: 1. Log onto your ISP. 2. Open mIRC. You should see a box "mIRC Options". If you don't then click on View then on "Options" Fill in the information there...you do NOT have to put in your real name or email address. For security purposes, make them up. Do put in the nickname you want and an alternative. 4. Click on the button with the sunburst icon, just to the right of the button that says, "Connect to Server". Where it says "IRC Network", scroll down until you see "Starlink-IRC" and highlight that so it shows in the window. There is also a Starlink network, so make sure that the one you select has the "IRC" after it. Now click on the arrow next to the IRC server window. That will list a number of Starlink-IRC servers....select one of them. The Starlink-IRC random server will automatically pick one of the servers for you, so you can use that one. With one of the Starlink-IRC servers in the window, click on "Connect to Server" If the Starlink Random Server is not in your mirc program you can add it: Click the "add" button. Where it says "Description" type "Starlink Random Server" Where it says "IRC Server" type IRC.STARLINK-IRC.ORG Port should be 6664,6665,6666,6667,6668,6669 (all of those with no spaces between them) and "Group" is Starlink-IRC 5. Once connected, you'll see lots of scrolling text. When that stops, type /join #Woodcarverchat in the window at the bottom and hit your "enter" key. (you need the / and #, and Woodcarverchat must be spelled exactly right) I have put these instructions on a web page with direct links at http://artwebmaine.com/woodcarverchat.html You may want to bookmark it. ******* See you there! E-mail me off the list for additional information and instructions.

Please be cautious anytime you join a social network. 3) I will check with List member off-line to ascertain the circumstances; there is no need for other List members to respond.
