Good Afternoon all -

The fine folks that brought us the Drill Doctor (which does work) now  
have something called Work Sharp.   Glass disks onto which you slap  
standard abrasive disks,  a slotted wheel for non-flat tools, etc.

Has anyone used this yet? Looks interesting for flat tools, but not  
too sure about knives and curved tools.   Video here:  http://www.worksharptools.com/pilot.asp?pg=ws3000vid

matt,
i purchased one and have 
good luck with it? the only thing i do not like is that it goes only one direction so not real good for knives but otherwise it has the advantage to your whole shop not just carving.
have had good luck free hand. bythe way i do not like the leather disc for my carving tools
i like to do the final polish on justthe back of a notepad. 
good luck?

 Painting:? Generally, prep with shellac or Watco oil.?? Oil colors in wash to heavy, depending on how much grain.? Wax.? 
?????????????????????? For antiquing, lacquer, oil and burnt umber, very thin, wipe on, wipe off.

Sharpening:? Constant!? That's the key.? Generally, for very heavy shaping, files.? For heavy shaping, carborundum.? Water stones at 1000 and 4000.? Leather strop with yellowstone compound.? I just made a new strop which is 4" wide and 12" long, to also accomodate plane irons.

Hi All!  Well I have been busy working on a second hobo for my little scene.
This guy is a little taller at 7 inches and basswood of course. Ready to be
painted. He will be placed in a small scene along with the previously carved
hobo. This guy is a real wise acre and quite snarley when he has had a
little bit of bottle. He is having a few words here with his painted friend.
I will be carving a little camp fire to go in the scene. Anyway, you can see
it here: http://iowacarver.tripod.com/    and just go to the Latest Carving
Page.

Thanks for looking as always!

Painting: It varies

which is mounted on the end of my bench.  It has 4 wheels of which I use the 
last 2 most often.  Does a great job

Matt,

I bought one about 6 months ago.  I have the leather wheel and the glass 
wheels for sharpening, the slotted disks, etc.  It seems OK for straight 
gouges, skews, chisels, and other tools.  I have not tried my palm 
gouges on it yet, they may be too short handled to work easily although 
freehand on the top of the wheel may be fine.  It is excellent for my 
woodworking chisels (one bevel, straight edge) and for my plane blades.

I haven't gotten excited about the leather strop, but haven't used it 
yet on wide flat blades so my verdict is still out on that part.

It cannot sharpen blades like a chip carving knife or other similar 
blade. You can't reverse direction of the wheel or sharpen both sides of 
the blade by turning the blade.  I continue to use my leather hone in 
the drill press for that trick after using my DMT 600 grit flat stone.

If you do no woodworking except carving, this is not the best sharpening 
system to buy.  If you have plane blades and other flat blades to 
sharpen, this is a nice tool.

Wow, Corey, when you have the two of them together, (even though the latest isn't painted yet), they look like they're just grouching around together and actually talking!  You do great work.  Have to ask, when you took the picture of yourself in that outfit, were YOU holding the bottle, too? grin.
They both have a lot of "life" in them.  You should be proud.

I use both acrylics and oils. I prefer oils but requires more mixing etc.
but I use acrylics more. Just depends on the mood. I use BLO after on
acrylics and before of course on oils. Sealed with couple light coats of
satin lacquer.

Sharpening... I haven't figure out the fine art of sharpening. Most knives
come good and sharp. Other tools and gouges unless they are a Denny or
Drake, I send them to Rick Ferry for a good sharpening, then I keep them
sharp with my Ultimate Sharpener from Chipping Away and my Floppy Wheel and
Compound I got from Big Dog.  Works for me.

Hi All!? Well I have been busy working on a second hobo for my little scene. This guy is a little taller at 7 inches and basswood of course. Ready to be painted. He will be placed in a small scene along with the previously carved hobo. This guy is a real wise acre and quite snarley when he has had a little bit of bottle. He is having a few words here with his painted friend. I will be carving a little camp fire to go in the scene. Anyway, you can see it here: http://iowacarver.tripod.com/??? and just go to the Latest Carving Page.

Thanks for looking as always!

Hey Doug!!!

Thanks for getting the conversation rolling.

Painting:  My favorite paints to work with are oils VERY thinned with 
Minwax Natural stain (a la David Sabol).  With a parrot in the house, 
I have to be careful about odors, so I have been using acrylics more 
and more, also very thinned.  I don't seal the wood first since I use 
the paint more as a stain.  I like to see the wood through the color. 
After painting I usually spray the carving with Krylon matte 
finish.  There are new "extended drying time" acrylic paints.  I 
bought some Atelier Interactive Paints a while back, but have not 
used them yet.  I have no idea why.

Sharpening:  strop, strop, strop!  The strop I use is a little 
different than most.  The leather is not glued to the board.  There 
is a hole in the board and one in the leather...and they are tied 
together.  This allows me to use different compounds on each side.  I 
can also bend the leather to fit inside some gouges and have cut the 
edgs of the leather to V and U shapes to fit inside of smaller 
gouges.  The compound I use is silicon carbide in oil suspension., 
what Cape Forge uses and sells.  I have a John Burke sharpener that 
has been just great.  I did replace the muslin wheel with a very hard 
felt wheel.  Unless an edge is damaged, that is what I use most.

Interesting to see what everyone prefers.  As I say in my classes, 
"Ask 100 carvers about sharpening and you'll get 100 different answers" :)

Different carvings call for different painting methods, but if I can, I
prefer water based finishes due to the low odor and easy clean up.

As for sharpening, I like the methods that are best presented by Everett
Ellenwood in his video "Sharpening Simplified". If you are not familiar with
this great video, check it out at:

http://www.ellenwoodarts.com/video.htm#sha

Sometimes I feel like a commercial, but I have no affiliation with Mr.
Ellenwood other than a very satisfied customer.

Hi Dick,

Message-ID: <20091004194704.7A053290BBB@smtp1.av-mx.com>



Join in on the fun!!!
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.

Hi Doug,

My favorate paint style is just a clear varnish. Most wood doesn't need the 
help of stain so clear varnish is what I choose to bring out the best 
qualities of the wood.

Sharpening style I like a rounded bevel with rounded corners sharpened to 
about a 29 degree angle. That works best for my style of carving especially 
for going deep into the mantel background.

 Painting:? being a painter before I was a carver I actually enjoy painting but as a woodcarver I hesitate to paint any carving because I love the look and feel of wood.?? But if I choose to paint my carvings, I prefer artists oils diluted with double boiled linseed oil.

Sharpening:? Can take it or leave it, but it is a chore which must be done constantly. I greatly prefer power sharpening as I sharpen a lot of tools and do not like losing precious carving time..? I like my own little setup using Koch wheels and felt wheels. You can keep all the big expensive systems.? There is an art to sharpening and I spend a lot of time trying to teach my students to sharpen but it seems that some pick it right up and others have great difficulty. Some never get it.? It just takes a certain touch which I have decided that not everyone is capable of.

I have to add my agreement to this.  THe Ellenwood video has made my carving
life a whole lot easier.  I had a terrible time sharpening my tools before,
but now I don't have that problem.  It IS time consuming, but my carving is
so much better when my knives are as sharp as they can be.  I was so
impressed with it, I ordered a copy for our club library and even the
long-time carvers were impressed and learned a few things.
 
Also for paint, I do the very washed out acrylics because I like the wood
grain and the carving marks to be visiible.  Or, like so of the others, I
use no stain or color at all, and just use a sealer at the end.  (I sound
like I've completed lots of pieces and believe me, I wish that were true,
but I'm still quite amateur and have only done a very few.)
 
Good question, though.  AND brave, too....grin

Different carvings call for different painting methods, but if I can, I
prefer water based finishes due to the low odor and easy clean up.

As for sharpening, I like the methods that are best presented by Everett
Ellenwood in his video "Sharpening Simplified". If you are not familiar with
this great video, check it out at:

Sometimes I feel like a commercial, but I have no affiliation with Mr.
Ellenwood other than a very satisfied customer.

I am also a fan of Ev's methods.? As stated it is time consuming, but I find I really enjoy spending that time now that it results in a SHARP tool.

There is a trick/skill to sharpening. I was pointing out to hubby just the other day that I cannot mess up on sharpening any more. It was a difficult skill to acquire, but once ya got it ya got it.

Doug:

I enjoy painting with acrylic paints.  Lots of water so the wood shows
through on most carvings.

I use power on my gouges and like diamond stones and Arkansas stones for my
knives. 

I teach sharpening with stones in my beginning carving classes.

Matt:

I have one that a friend bought and didn't care for.  I brought it home to
test drive it.  I like what I've tried so far.  To me, it isn't worth a darn
for carving knives.  It has a knife attachment available but I don't believe
it will do a single bevel from the heel to the cutting edge, something that
I require in my knives.  The see-through wheels are great for carving tools.
I use a black magic marker to color the bevel of the tool before I sharpen.
That lets me know what part of the tools is on the wheel.  I love the
leather buffing wheel that is on the glass wheel.  It is absolutely flat and
allows you to buff without creating a double bevel.  I also sharpen on the
glass wheels which gives me a single bevel edge.  I have not mastered use of
the bevel control guide yet. To me it is easier to freehand the grind.  

Another thing is the light weight.  I have a large sharpening machine that I
built if metal shop a few years ago.  It is great but way to heavy to tak3e
along to a carving workshop.  I have a belt sander and am planning on
purchasing the Work Sharp machine as soon as I can get my buddy to put a
price on it.  

Like most stuff, this machine has a learning curve.  However, I think it is
a good machine.

Good Afternoon all -

The fine folks that brought us the Drill Doctor (which does work) now  
have something called Work Sharp.   Glass disks onto which you slap  
standard abrasive disks,  a slotted wheel for non-flat tools, etc.

Has anyone used this yet? Looks interesting for flat tools, but not  
too sure about knives and curved tools.   Video here:

Hi There,
My name is Raymond Grey, came about your contact while trying to surf

something that you can help with?, Any idea of images you may

budget between $1,500 to $2,200 for all these, is this something that 
you can help.
Many Thanks

 I just got home from the GOW in Illinois.  Had a great time but the weather was awful- it was cold, rainy, damp and just plain miserable but the program was great.
Anyhow I'm getting ready for the retreat this weekend but I don't know how many students to prepare for.  Can you please let me know ASAP?  I need to know how many blanks to prepare and bring along.
Also I have been working on the project for the class at your house in Florida.  I'll bring along what I have done so far for your perusal but also would like to know If you received the proposal I sent to you earlier.   Let me know what you think, Jim.
Jack Miller

Tonight ESPN2 will be televising the "Battle for the 
Palladium"...football game between rival Middle Tennessee and Troy 
State...at 8 PM ET.  The "Palladium" trophy, as some of you may 
remember, is a statue of Athena which I carved in 2004.  The trophy 
now has a second base which nearly doubles the height.  The last time 
this game was televised, 2 years ago I'm told, there were lots of 
shots of the trophy.  I am not really a football enthusiast, but I 
guess I'll be watching tonight.  Here's a pic of the trophy with the new base:

Hmm, did you notice that at the bottom of the photo it says License photos
by SIpictures.com???
Interesting.  Anyway, beautiful job on the trophy and I'd certainly watch to
see if I can catch a glimpse of it!  Although i'm not much of a football fan
either.

Now, Maura.
You must know that I do things in a very deliberate fashion.  I have been thinking about the penguin for the NEWR.  Pondering is a very difficult and time-consuming activity that I engage in way too often.  Then I will begin the design phase and next  create the first carving.  Oh, it is so difficult!!!!!!  (At least that Is what I tell people-grinning from ear to ear)
Seriously Maura, I think you would really enjoy being an instructor at the Woodcarver's Retreat in Rhode Island.  There is a website that you could check to get some info on it Or I would be glad to put you in touch with Ray Johnson or Jim O'Dea, the two leaders of the program.  Also I don't recall anyone teaching the classic relief style of carving that you do.

Hi Jack,

Thanks for teaching at the GOW. Your classes were awesome. You are a marithon teacher for sure. The students just loved you and your teaching style. We would love to have you back. Next year I'm going to place my order for good weather, the week of October 4th, earlier.

Hi Jim,

Larry Yudis here.

I, too, just got back from the GOW (well ... not just back ... but a few days ago).  I had the priviledge of seeing your friend Jack Miller for the second time in the span of 2 months, the first time was at the Carvers Campout in Bremen, IN.

I met Jack's lovely wife for the first time at the GOW.  It was very surprising that we had something in common.

Neither she nor I looked forward to spending a week with Jack when he had only ONE SET of underwear!  I don't know, maybe it's just me, but a guy can get by with 2, maybe 3 days with the same set, BUT A WHOLE WEEK!!!  Ain't no way.  Thank goodness there was a K-Mart close by for Jack to remedy the situation.

I still don't know what possessed Jack to tell me his situation, let alone saying that it was the SECOND time that's happened to him.  I told him I would keep his secret so make sure you don't tell anyone Jim.  I'd appreciate that.

Good luck at your carving retreat.  If it gets cold and rainy, tell Jack that it helps to put more clothes on to stay warm instead of walking around in a t-shirt and a pair of bermudas.

Until next time ...

   I just got home from the GOW in Illinois.  Had a great time but the weather was awful- it was cold, rainy, damp and just plain miserable but the program was great.

  Anyhow I'm getting ready for the retreat this weekend but I don't know how many students to prepare for.  Can you please let me know ASAP?  I need to know how many blanks to prepare and bring along.

  Also I have been working on the project for the class at your house in Florida.  I'll bring along what I have done so far for your perusal but also would like to know If you received the proposal I sent to you earlier.   Let me know what you think, Jim.

  Jack Miller

  Hi Jim,

  Larry Yudis here.

  I, too, just got back from the GOW (well ... not just back ... but a few days ago).  I had the priviledge of seeing your friend Jack Miller for the second time in the span of 2 months, the first time was at the Carvers Campout in Bremen, IN.

  I met Jack's lovely wife for the first time at the GOW.  It was very surprising that we had something in common.

  Neither she nor I looked forward to spending a week with Jack when he had only ONE SET of underwear!  I don't know, maybe it's just me, but a guy can get by with 2, maybe 3 days with the same set, BUT A WHOLE WEEK!!!  Ain't no way.  Thank goodness there was a K-Mart close by for Jack to remedy the situation.

  I still don't know what possessed Jack to tell me his situation, let alone saying that it was the SECOND time that's happened to him.  I told him I would keep his secret so make sure you don't tell anyone Jim.  I'd appreciate that.

  Good luck at your carving retreat.  If it gets cold and rainy, tell Jack that it helps to put more clothes on to stay warm instead of walking around in a t-shirt and a pair of bermudas.

  Until next time ...

Hey Big Dog,

 

Doing a google search I found that Jack belonged to a radical group for
many, many years called COMMANDO until Winnie started to offer the
encouragement he needed. Jack still attends brief meetings when he can
jockey around time. Boxing out time when traveling often is difficult when
Jack is on the road.  Continue to help Jack carve out time so he stays on
track . We all thank the Schitz foundation for supporting this worthy
endeavor. !!

 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
You are NOT making it public Doug MANY moons ago we already discovered that Jack had a loose cog 

When he kept throwing penults at good folks instead of the monkeys 

But him walking around in shorts is NOT new either I remember a few years ago when a certain Canadian was doing the same and he shall be left nameless 

EVERY body was wearing sweaters and heavy long pants at that time except him Short sleeved shirt and shorts (Only pair he had) Got a picture to prove it

Hi Jim.

Jack Miller here. 

 I just got home from the GOW in Illinois.  Had a great time but the weather
was awful- it was cold, rainy, damp and just plain miserable but the program
was great.

Anyhow I'm getting ready for the retreat this weekend but I don't know how
many students to prepare for.  Can you please let me know ASAP?  I need to
know how many blanks to prepare and bring along.

Also I have been working on the project for the class at your house in
Florida.  I'll bring along what I have done so far for your perusal but also
would like to know If you received the proposal I sent to you earlier.   Let
me know what you think, Jim.

Subject: [Woodcarver] Wednesday Woodcarver Chat
Message-ID: <20091007215634.7276C1BFDCA@smtp0.av-mx.com>



Join in on the fun!!!
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.

Marcia,

I would "STRONGLY" encourage you to notify SI that those pictures are 
yours, your copyright, and that they MUST give you credit immediately 
and permanently or take them down with a posted apology.  You can be 
nice about it, but firm, since they would, as you noted, give you hell 
for using their copyrighted material without permission.    Some years 
ago, when I wrote a review of Christopher White's book, Parables in 
Wood, for the Ezine,  Chris lifted the review, intact, for his website 
to promote the book.  Matt wrote him shortly thereafter and noted that 
it was copyrighted material used without permission and Chris promptly 
rectified it. SI should be a LOT smarter than that.

All the best,  Vic

Mush- I remember that commission as you were making it- but I didn't realize to what use the original was going to be used. Have they used your carving to make multiple copies for these trophies? It is exciting to see your work showed around as much as that is. Big congratulations to you.

Personally I wouldn't mind if they used my photos of my work since that is probably better than they could take and I would like my work to look good. Wouldn't it be difficult to prove that it was your photo anyhow? Couldn't they duplicate the photos from the carving they bought? Or did you sell just the reproduction rights?
It would also depend on what your contract states their rights to the image are.

Thank you everyone for your comments.  It was fun to see my carving 
on television last night, even briefly! :)
Donna, the trophy has not been duplicated at all.  No reproduction 
rights involved.  No contracts for use of my photo either.  The 
trophy goes back and forth between the teams to whoever wins the 
year's rivalry.  There is no way they could have duplicated that 
picture...it's a composite of two views that I photographed against 
my gray background.  Here's the picture on my web page 
http://whittlinsnwood.com/WWAlb/commissions/index.html  ...obviously 
the same picture.
I don't mind a photo of my carving being publicized.  What I do  mind 
is that they never asked for permission or even let me know.  They 
could/should have, at the very least,  mentioned my name!  Shame on 
Sports Illustrated!

Well I finally got it all done. Both figures painted and mounted, base made
and painted etc. All carved from basswood. The figures are 6 1/2 and 7
inches tall, 2-2.5 inches wide. All painted with acrylics and sealed with
satin lacquer. I learned a lot doing this I can tell you that and I am ready
to move onto something else ! Thanks for everyone's suggestions and thoughts
on previous postings. Hope you like it. I will be taking this to our club
show in Omaha at the end of the month. I am pretty happy with the way it
turned out. Your thoughts and comments welcome.

Hey Corey, 

All I can say is WOW you did a great job. It does remind me of those days when working on the railroad when we would go past a group standing around a burn barrel. Thanks for bringing those memories back. Keep them picts a comin.

Well I finally got it all done. Both figures painted and mounted, base made
and painted etc. All carved from basswood. The figures are 6 1/2 and 7
inches tall, 2-2.5 inches wide. All painted with acrylics and sealed with
satin lacquer. I learned a lot doing this I can tell you that and I am ready
to move onto something else ! Thanks for everyone's suggestions and thoughts
on previous postings. Hope you like it. I will be taking this to our club
show in Omaha at the end of the month. I am pretty happy with the way it
turned out. Your thoughts and comments welcome.

With that the case then I would personally have had a bird to see them carrying the trophy around so carelessly. I wonder if they realize just how delicate a wood carving is?

Well ... big sheepish and exasperated grin here ... I sure am!
 
Our web host decided that our websites, Fine Art Dog Prints and
CarvingPatterns.com, needed to be updated by moving them to new servers.
Sounded OK with us as we will be getting all sorts of new features and a better
price.  We have been on their 'old' server since around 2000.  Ten days ago they
sent us an email saying we would need to change our DNS number with Internic
before Oct. 8th.   Mike made the change on Tuesday night, the 6th ... and our
carving site went DOWN!  Muttart.com made the change just fine but CCP was
another story.
 
Apparently they are having problems transfering the sites that have Secure
Certificates as our does.  So we are working on it, they are working on it and
somewhere out there in Cyber Space the Ethernet dieties might take pity on us
and get this resolved by tonight.
 
Mike and I apologize to everyone trying to access the site ... but after a dozen
phone calls to India (sigh!) we are still waiting.  In the mean time you might
try www.WoodCarvingPatterns.com  They did at least find an old copy of the site
and got that posted while we all wait.

We DID TOO pay the bill!   Oh, sigh!  
 
They seem to have found an old copy of the site and have it posted.  It's from
Oct. 2008 but at least we are back on the net and you can get into the free
tutorial and teaching area again.  Once they get things settled down a bit they
should be putting back the up to date copy.  Again, everyone, our apologizes
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
And, thanks for your thoughts.  Mike is doing much better after a long summer
with three trips to the hospital for pneumonia.  One included a couple of days
in ICU and those awful talks about living wills, DNR's and tubes down the
throat.  Your thoughts are very important to us.
 
Jan, thanks for your posting my call ... I owe you one!

Hi Mush!

   As I looked at the trophy again I also looked at a couple of others.  The daffodil mirrow frame is absolutely beautiful!  (As are the rest too).  Thanks for posting!

Join in on the fun!!!
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)

Gentle Carvers and other friends:

You may recall that last winter I carved the Stations of the Cross,  
all fourteen of them.
The series sold to a local Catholic Parish, but they commissioned a  
15th station which I completed this week.
To view the series, and the 15th Station in particular (The  
Resurrected Lord) please go to:

http://www.wwwoodcarver.com/Home/Stations_of_the_Cross.html

As usual, your comments are appreciated.

Blessings and Peace,

Bill

Good Evening All!

   I have to comment on what a fantastic writer Mike Bloomquest is (and also a great carver and a fantastic teacher).  I just finished reading his article about NEWR in the Woodcarver Online Magazine.  I could not stop smiling from the wonderful memories he brought up since as mentioned I have been there all but 1 of the 7 years it has been going on (thanks to my mom and her tummy surgery  we missed 1). Reading it made me smile remembering those days gone by and the new friends I made that year and all the years since.  We did and do have such a great time at the roundups, classes and that other one he said that I can't spell.  It doesn't seem possible to make such good friends in such a short time and yet you do.  You learn so much not only from the wonderful volunteer teachers but from the other "students".  It is a wonderful homey place to go, visit, carve, talk and learn.  If you can't make NEWR then try The Evart Roundup in Michigan or Joe Dillet's GOW in Illionis or the one Chris and Jim Odea (and others) put on in Flordia.  I even here there are some out West. I have definately grown as a person and a carver because of my time spent in the company of other great carvers and I can't wait until I am retired so I can visit ALL OF THEM EVERY WHERE!!!  Thank you to everyone that has helped me on my adventure of learning to carve and develop my skills whether in person or on this list where everyone is so generous with their precious information and talents!

  Ok enough of the mushy stuff! :)  Good night - happy carving

You may recall that last winter I carved the Stations of the Cross, all
fourteen of them.
The series sold to a local Catholic Parish, but they commissioned a 15th
station which I completed this week.
To view the series, and the 15th Station in particular (The Resurrected
Lord) please go to:

Hi Bill,

Wonderful job. I love the feelings you've captured in each carving. They 
really tell the story. I hope to achieve those same feelings because I'm 
about to begin that same journey of carving the 14 Stations for a new 
Catholic church. I finished the carving for the altar and currently working 
on the carving for the ambo. Your stations are an inspiration to me. A job 
like this is a blessing as well as a great opportunity to meditate on what 
Christ did for us.

Thanks,

Bill, you are truly an artist.  That's an amazing collection of works.  Each
one individually is fantastic, but together it's a masterpiece.  
Thanks so much for sharing that.

Merrilee,

Hey "Hat Lady", you're making me blush.  I was bit worried that whole
article was a little over the top, but it couldn't be helped.  For me, the
NEWR is Christmas-in-July.  

 

OK, the truth now, was it really that good, or are you just relieved I
didn't include your fire-ring-as-a-car-jack story? ;-)

 

BTW, I think you get photo credit for Joe and his date (Floyd Rhadigan in
pigtails).  My secret title for that is "Brokeback Woodcarvers?"  (Bet the
article gets a few more hits now, eh? I have no shame. <BG> )

 

Keep on Carvin' 
-Mike B.->

Yup Mike it was that good! Cause its Christmas-in-July for me too!  I was glad you didn't include that or the shoot'em up bang bang story!    We do have a good time there!  Thanks for helping relive it again. Tell Harold Hi for me!

Merrilee
 Hey are you going to Dayton Show?  Bette has reserved the room and informed me we are going.  So I guess I feel a cold coming on already!  Hope to see you again there!

Message-ID: <0D64E688-5578-4023-BC06-D3311A9E39BF@sasktel.net>

Gentle Carvers:

Having received a commission for a six foot tall crucifix from a local  
Catholic Parish, here in Saskatoon, I am researching various methods  
for constructing the corpus efficiently.

Ivan Whillock was ever so kind as to offer feedback in this regard,  
but I'd like to extend the call for information to the List community  
at large.

Q. What methods are most effective for laminating the wood together  
for a large crucifix?

Q. Is there a "coffin" type of construction for crucifixes similar to  
what is used for carving carousel horses?

If any of you have information, especially links to websites  
containing diagrams/plans and photos of crucifix construction, I'd be  
most appreciative of your help.

Blessings and Peace,

Bill Judt

Bill-

On my website, I have a pictures of the gluing process I used for a
Christ the King Crucifix. Since this one is dressed in the robes of
priest and king, the sleeves provide enough strength to allow the
grain in the arms to be vertical. The hands were added with the grain
following the primary direction of the fingers. You can see it here:

http://msdesigns.net/projects/kogf.html

Most traditional large scale crucifixes are glued up with body as one
piece and the arms separate so the grain can run the length of the
arms. If the grain in the arms does not match the direction of the
grain in the body, it is important to use dowels (or something
similar) in these joints.

Many large crucifixes are built with a cavity in the back. This can be
open in the back, but narrow enough to be hidden by the cross. This
would primarily be done to reduce the weight of the finished piece.
You will want to be sure you know where and how it will be mounted. A
cavity does need to be well planned to ensure you will not carve into
it. Building in a cavity may also mean more glue joints than you would
otherwise require. If this piece is going to be stained, you want to
try to reduce the number of edge glue joints as they will be more
visible that surface glue joints. This will be less of an issue if it
will be painted. If it was not necessary for weight, I do not think I
would build in a cavity.

When gluing up the layers, perhaps the most important part is making
sure each surface was smooth and matched the surface it would be glued
to. I find a piece of paper to test for gaps and a good hand plane
very helpful.

I hope some of this helps. If you have any additional questions,
please let me know.

Thanks!

BillJust a note, the 15th (as well as the other 14) station are awesome!If you are going to stain the cross, you may want to use Animal Hide Glue, the glue lines are smaller and the glue will accept stain. ?BlessingsLynn

Subject: [Woodcarver] Wednesday Woodcarver Chat
Message-ID: <20091021215439.CDF11290F16@smtp1.av-mx.com>



Join in on the fun!!!
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!

	Congress
Message-ID: <39E53DFFFA5043739B80F59556C07862@larry>

 

Hello Woodcarving Friends!

 

After a 43 year run in the Quad City area (Davenport and Bettendorf, Iowa),
the International Woodcarvers Congress, sponsored by the Affiliated Wood
Carvers, Ltd. (AWC), is moving north to Maquoketa, Ia.  It is a small
community about 42 miles directly north of the Quad Cities on Hwy 61.  They
are very friendly and helpful folks who are eager to have the Congress be a
part of their community.  The show and seminars will be held in Pearson Hall
on the Jackson County Fairgrounds, 1212 E. Quarry Street.  More information
about Maquoketa and the Congress' move will be available shortly on our
website (www.awcltd.org <http://www.awcltd.org/> ) and in future
newsletters, which go out to AWC members.

 

Another big change for the Congress is the dates the show will be held.
>From 2010 on, we will be holding the Congress a week earlier than we have in
the past.  Here is a rundown of the festivities and dates:

 

June 12 - 13: Accepting carry-in carvings for competition.

June 14 - 15: Closed judging of competition pieces.

June 14 - 18: Various 1, 2, 3 and 5 Day seminars being held.

June 17 - 20: Show will be open to the public (Charge at the door).

June 19 - 20: Judges Critique Sessions.

June 19: Annual Awards Banquet.

June 20: Annual AWC Membership Meeting.

June 20: Release of competition pieces at 4:00 PM.

 

If you would like to be a part of this historical move for the Congress, you
can become a member of AWC for $15.00 a year ($20US for foreign members).
Just send a check or money order to the PO Box below, made out to AWC Ltd.
You don't have to be a member to come see the show, but you do have to be a
member of AWC to take any of the seminars offered.  If you have any
questions about the Congress or AWC, please feel free to give us a call or
drop us a line.

Good Morning All!

    I have a huge question for whom ever knows the answer :)  Our school a 6-8th grade middle school became a 5-8th grade middle school this year.  The 5th grade is keeping the kids self contained like they did in elementary but our wonderful superintendent told the community that their 5th graders would have the experience of woodshop (plus the other specials as normal) - once a week all year long.  Our shop teacher is .... not excited about this at all.  Besides the kids being unruly and noisy after 5 "days" in class they haven't started anything yet.  He doesn't have projects for them that don't require power tools.  I finally started looking for ideas and then remembered you all. So I am asking if anyone has simple project ideas  that use hand tools only if you would please share them with me.  Email me privately since this really isn't carving related.  Thanks to all of you!

Merrilee

Hi all, I have been busy carving between business trips.  Here is one of 3
Santas I have carved in the last week. It is from a Mark Akers roughout
blank and is about 7 inches tall and painted in acrylics and finished in
satin lacquer.  Also have finished a Wayne Shinlever ornament which is also
from a roughout blank. It's about 4 inches tall and painted in acrylics and
oils.  I hope to get 2 more santas loaded up today as well.
You can view them here: http://iowacarver.tripod.com/id5.html

Thanks for looking as always!

A shop teacher who can't teach shop without power tools is like a math teacher who can't teach addition without a calculator.  In his planning, the shop teacher can set a number of skills he wants to teach: using a square, hand sawing in a straight line, squaring up an edge with a hand plane, making corners with a miter box, following a line with a coping saw, using a hand drill, using a wood chisel--and on and on.  Once he determines the skills he wants to impart, he can then develop projects that encourage those skills.  The projects don't need to be earth-shaking.  A bird house with butt joints teaches using a square, sawing a straight line, using a drill to make the hole, etc.  Then maybe move on to a simple mitered box with applied decoration, a tray for Mom, a napkin holder, a decorative shelf, a small plaque with a chiseled pattern, a cedar closet flower done with a coping saw, wooden toys for little brother or sister.  Each new skill leads to a slightly more complicated project, following a pre-determined learning pattern . . . . .!!!!!

Do modern school shops have none of these hand tools?  C clamps, vises? Then he has a problem.  It's also a problem if the class size is bigger than the number of stations in the shop.  

Let the skills to be learned define the projects.

Hi Merrilee,

 

I thought I'd answer here in case some other carving folks may run into a
similar situation.

 

Fox Chapel Publishing has a book out in their Kids Crafts Series called
"Woodworking".  I haven't seen it, but here is a link to it on their
website.  It looks like it would be just the things you're looking for.

If you don't want to order one book directly from Fox, I can get a copy in
for you the next time we place an order.  We're ordering from them at least
2 or 3 times a month.

 

http://www.foxchapelpublishing.com/p-1117-woodworking-kid-crafts-series.aspx

 

Let me know if we can be of any help.

Hey Corey,

 

Excellent job, once again, my man!

 

Got some good news and some bad news for you.  The good news is that I hear
you're going to be set up right across from us at the Omaha show next
weekend.  Don't forget to bring the title to your truck/car or whatever as
well as your check book and whatever credit cards have the most available
funds left in the accounts!  LOL!

 

The bad news is that you're going to be set up right across from us at the
Omaha show.  I'm afraid you're gonna have to put up with me bugging the heck
outta you and fondling all your neat carvings (with your permission, of
course).  Make sure you have prices on them so I don't have to pester you
too much.

 

Looking forward to the show and seeing your creations up close and personal.

 

CU then!

Hi all, I have been busy carving between business trips. Here is one of 3
Santas I have carved in the last week. It is from a Mark Akers roughout
blank and is about 7 inches tall and painted in acrylics and finished in
satin lacquer. Also have finished a Wayne Shinlever ornament which is also
from a roughout blank. It's about 4 inches tall and painted in acrylics and
oils. I hope to get 2 more santas loaded up today as well. 
You can view them here: http://iowacarver.tripod.com/id5.html

Thanks for looking as always!

GOOD FOR YOU IVAN!?

I have to deal with too many people who can't do woodworking unless they have access to electricity.? And seeing some of their work they can't do woodworking with it either.?

The main cause is, they skipped the basics!? What better time to teach it than in the beginning.

Hi LarryO,

 

I'd imagine you run into that often at Rockler in dealing with your
customers.  Those who never experienced the basics don't really know what
they are missing.

 

Our masterful friend "Ivan the Wonderful" (as opposed to the other one),
brought the whole situation down to basics and told it like it should be.
We thank you for that, Ivan.

Hi Merrilee,

Thought I would add my 2 cents worth - that's probably all it is worth. I hope your school district realizes that they can't put the typical class size of 28 students into a shop class. Our Middle School tried to have no more than 16 in a class and that was 7th and 8th graders. After retiring I taught carving in an afterschool program. I found that 5th grade boys were all over the place and found it very difficult to sit and control the use of the knife. 6th graders were slightly better and 7th graders were fine. I limited the group to 10 and made them sit in a circle where I could see all of them at all times.?I can just see a large class of 5th graders with saws and hammers in their hands. If the teacher really wants the students to be hands on and supervised, he will need small class sizes and assistants to keep an eye out.

You can have the best plans in the world but you need a pair of eyes on all students at all times. And I agree that Ivan has the best suggestions for plans.

Sandie makes an important point.  If the administration is just dumping 25-30 5th graders into a shop class, that is a huge disservice to the students and to the teacher. Fifth graders have short attention spans and should be kept busy on specific, approachable goals.  However,  given a manageable number of students and the proper resources, the shop teacher has an opportunity to teach the students not only some basic manual skills in handling tools, but also to reinforce their other learning in language (reading and following directions), math (measuring and calculating), and teamwork (pairs of students working on a project together).  He can take theory learned in the other classes and put it to practical use in the shop.  He can be the one person in their school experience who demonstrates practical application of theory.  And when the student is done, there is a tangible product to show for the effort, not just a mark on a report card.  The shop teacher is a lucky guy, not a victim.

I'm a fan of getting students of all levels to DO!  

That's what carving is all about, isn't it? DOING!  

And having something to show for our efforts.

  Hi Merrilee,

  Thought I would add my 2 cents worth - that's probably all it is worth. I hope your school district realizes that they can't put the typical class size of 28 students into a shop class. Our Middle School tried to have no more than 16 in a class and that was 7th and 8th graders. After retiring I taught carving in an afterschool program. I found that 5th grade boys were all over the place and found it very difficult to sit and control the use of the knife. 6th graders were slightly better and 7th graders were fine. I limited the group to 10 and made them sit in a circle where I could see all of them at all times. I can just see a large class of 5th graders with saws and hammers in their hands. If the teacher really wants the students to be hands on and supervised, he will need small class sizes and assistants to keep an eye out.

  You can have the best plans in the world but you need a pair of eyes on all students at all times. And I agree that Ivan has the best suggestions for plans.

Hi Sandy!

   I agree with you but our administration doesn't.  They promised when the elementary school got closed the kids would "get" Wood shop.  Doesn't matter that one class has 29 kids in it.  And that the teacher didn't know this was happening until after he made his order for this year.  The kids will have woodshop -its a plus.  Lets forget about art and life skills though they aren't necessary.  Ah well, I am digressing and doing it poorly.  Anyway, we only get the kids 1 day a week so we don't know them can't establish a relationship with them and have to reteach everything each week from the week before.  It is not the easiest year so far!  I thank you for your help though.  Take care!

You are so right Ivan.  Our shop has some but I think he has gone the way of power cause the kids like it better.  And then he doesn't have enough for all the kids.  That makes it hard.  Then only getting to see them 1 day a week adds to the frustration.  It's almost reteaching them to come in the room for the first time each week.  School has been in for 5 weeks and everyone thinks he's not doing it fast enough but when it's only 1 day that adds up to only 5 days not weeks he has seen them.  We do get stuck in our ruts though and I think that is what is happening here.  I'm going to suggest he tell the administration that he needs more equipment and another pair of eyes in with him that hour.  Your suggestions were excellent.  Sometimes simple things are forgotten over the big and flashy.  

 

By the way what is a closet flower?  Thanks again!

A closet flower is a decoration, a flower, for example,  cut out of aromatic cedar and hung in the closet for the aroma it gives out--a simply-made present for Mom.  Kids draw a simple flower like a tulip, cut it out with a coping saw, drill a hole and tie on a colored string hanger.

Even hand tools need adequate supervision, especially among fifth graders, typically, whose main interest is in what the kid at the next table is doing.  The principal should certainly be aware of liability issues if someone gets hurt in a shop with too many students and inadequate supervision.

Thank you for the explaination of the flower.  

 

I talked with the shop teacher and shared with him my research.  He said he was worried that the projects he was thinking of doing were too simple and that the administration and the parents would object to them.  After showing him all the suggestions from everyone he said these were things he used to do way back when.  But the projects have grown with the kids and their ability.  

 

We both agree this batch of kids are very young and immature and disipline is lacking.  I did ask him about the numbers of students in class now.  His limit is 25 but for 6th -8th.  Nothing about 5th grade.  Contracts - yuck!!  We did discuss the fact that he needs more adults in the class with 29.  Although his lesson plans for 6-8th grade incorporate the progression of learning 5th graders are "babies" and need more done for them.  So that brought on discussion of asking parents for help and supplies.  This first year with elementary kids will be a testing time and eventually we will work it out.  I think we have decided to ask if we can see them for 2 weeks every day then rotate instead of 1 day each week.  There is no continuity to it.  And if I were still teaching Life Skills I would be in the same boat.  But now as the technology teacher I will have to come up with 2 weeks of lessons instead of 1 day every week.  :) Oh well, it could be worse!

  

Again I thank all of you for your help and suggestions.  It just confirms what a terrific bunch of people you all are!

(Ivan mounts his soap box!!)

I admire our teachers who are continually placed in impossible situations and somehow still come up with valid learning experiences for the kids.  It isn't an easy task but somehow most of our teachers in the trenches find a way. My highest regards always go to the people who teach our kids.  They are the true heroes of our times.  Sadly, they are generally underpaid and underappreciated.  With today's impossible class sizes and the cultural diversity that challenges them, it's a wonder that they do as well as they do..

Thanks to all of you who teach!

(Ivan now jumps off his soap box and goes back to chopping wood.)

Ivan,

 

Here in Michigan one of our beloved Congressional leaders has suggested a
across the board 25% pay cut for teachers to help balance our budget (don't
tell the hat lady). This is rationalized as we just need to do this and the
old they only work 75% of the work year argument. When my wife heard this
after coming home from 32 kindergartners she said !@$$$%^&**((   !!!

 

DougE 

 

 

 

 

 

I admire our teachers who are continually placed in impossible situations
and somehow still come up with valid learning experiences for the kids.  It
isn't an easy task but somehow most of our teachers in the trenches find a
way. My highest regards always go to the people who teach our kids.  They
are the true heroes of our times.  Sadly, they are generally underpaid and
underappreciated.  With today's impossible class sizes and the cultural
diversity that challenges them, it's a wonder that they do as well as they
do..

 

Thanks to all of you who teach!

Hi Merrilee and others,
?
This thread is great.? Most of us (OK, maybe just me) remember shop as the one class where we had something tangible in our hand when we were done and it also helped show the worth of so many of the other "boring classes" we were forced to take.
You mentioned contracts below (I've underlined and made bold the sentence) as though, if there were none, the class size would be smaller.? Want to bet?
?

Thank you for the explaination of the flower.? 
?
I talked with the?shop teacher and shared with him my research.? He?said he was worried?that the projects he was thinking of doing were too simple?and that the administration and the parents would object to them.? After showing him all the suggestions from everyone he said these were things he used to do way back when.? But?the projects have grown with the kids and their ability.??
?
We both agree this batch of kids are very young and immature and disipline is lacking.? I did ask him about the numbers of students in class now.? His limit is 25 but for 6th?-8th.? Nothing about 5th grade.? Contracts - yuck!!? We did?discuss the fact that he needs more adults in the class with 29.??Although his lesson plans for 6-8th grade incorporate the progression of learning 5th graders are "babies" and need more done for them.? So that brought on discussion of asking parents for help and supplies.? This first year with elementary kids will be a testing time and eventually we will?work it out.? I think we have decided to ask if we can see them for 2 weeks every day then rotate instead of 1?day each week.? There is no continuity to it.? And if I were?still teaching?Life Skills I would be in the same boat.? But now as the technology teacher I will have to come up with 2 weeks of lessons instead of 1 day every week.? :) Oh well, it
 could be worse!
? 
Again I thank all of you for your help and suggestions.? It just confirms what a terrific bunch of people you all are!
Merrilee

Gentle Carvers and other friends:

You may recall that last winter I carved the Stations of the Cross, all
fourteen of them.
The series sold to a local Catholic Parish, but they commissioned a 15th
station which I completed this week.
To view the series, and the 15th Station in particular (The Resurrected
Lord) please go to:

http://www.wwwoodcarver.com/Home/Stations_of_the_Cross.html

As usual, your comments are appreciated.

Blessings and Peace,

Bill

LOL... Pat. Thanks all and Karen I started carving in February 2008. I got a
wood burner Christmas 2007 and it kind of led to carving through WCI
website. The burner is dedicated to signing carvings... LOL... don't tell
the wife that!

  This is the final standing Santa that I am doing for the show. He is about 8 1/2 inches tall on the base.
  You can view it at:  http://iowacarver.tripod.com/id5.html

Message-ID: <707700.86746.qm@web53507.mail.re2.yahoo.com>

Not sure who may still be on this list but?I'll go on with this anyway....

Yesterday was our annual show and so I?brought along my short dowel display of the round robin carvings from 1998-99.???I do this?every couple of years or so.?? Yesterday,? the round robin caused more interest?in a single item on the table than I have seen in awhile.?? I must have told the story of those segments 100 times during the day.?? (Do you think that meant the rest of my table was boring???)? I sure hope not.?? 

Anyway just wanted to say that reliving the nerves,? excitement and just plain fun that those segments brought to me was a very cool thing.?? Thanks to Len Dillon,? Bill Russell and Loren Woodward for some history that still brings smiles to many and great memories to me.

For those who may not know....The Round Robin Segments were regular (typical) cane segments divided into? four areas using the corners.?? A theme is decided,? we did Santas first,? I think.?? so each of the carvers (4) carves a Santa on one corner of the segment and then mails it off to the second person on the list,? shortly in the mail,? carver number one receives a segment with a Santa already carved on the corner, at this time carver number one carvers a Santa on the next available corner and mails it off to the second person on the list.?? When the segment arrives with three Santas completed on the segment, carver number one carves the last corner and that is the segment carver number one gets to keep.?? So each carver ends up carving 4 Santas on 4 different segments resulting in 4 completed segments one for each participant.? Not as confusing as I make it sound,? I'm sure, cause I got it figured out.?? Anyway we ended up doing
 Santas,? Native Americans,??Pretty Women (Ha Ha Ha) and Caraicature (sp?).?? So my dowel has 4 segments with 16 carvings...quite unique and fun to look at and certainly interesting to talk about.?

Hope this? hasn't been too boring to the masses but wanted to tell those who may still be on the list that they were stars of the show yesterday.?? A few took pictures so who knows,? a whole new round robin may start up somewhere out there....I can almost promise it will be fun.

For anyone interested,  the Cane Segment Round Robin is still an  
active part of the World Wide Woodcarver Exchanges -  all we need are  
some carvers.  More info at the RR exchange page here:
http://carverscompanion.com/W3E_FCRR_Home.html    There are some  
photos,  but it looks like the links are broken -  I'll see if I can  
fix them tonight.

Patti,
Are talking about the Friendship cane program.  
If so there's information about it here http://carverscompanion.com/W3E_FCD_Home.html
It looks like the pictures of the individual segments are gone, there is a picture of the one of the canes with 16 segments.  Mine has 14 segments, two participants didn't send out their segments.

Byron,

I think?the Round Robin came out of the Friendship cane program.?? I have one of the first few from that program too but I have the full 16 segments.?? I took it to shows for a few years too as the locations, artists, subjects, and miles traveled astounded most folks.?? The difference is in the FC you did the complete segment and sent it off as a complete item...done.?? the RR is a continuously developing carving until all four corners are complete.?? So 4 carvers on each segment instead of one.

On my full FC are...and I'm not sure who is still on the list..
Sandi Bernards (OR), Matt Kelley (MI),? John Groom (ONT),? Fred Stuppy (PA),? Wynne Simmons (AL), Steve Fletcher (CA),? Loren Woodard (MO),? Earl Kates?(AL),? Bruce Baker (PA),? Vic Hamburger (MA),??Larry Goodson (SC),? Tony Last (ONT),? Jean Melton (NC),? Bill?Russell (NY),? Michelle Giles (SC) and myself (WI)

The full cane (16) was quite a commitment.?

Patti,
Are talking about the Friendship cane program.? 
If so there's information about it here http://carverscompanion.com/W3E_FCD_Home.html
It looks like the pictures of the individual segments are gone, there is a picture of the one of the canes with 16 segments.? Mine has 14 segments, two participants didn't send out their segments.

Hi!

   I wasn't one of the lucky ones to get shop in school but I did take drafting as a senior and it was a wonderful class!  We used all sorts of useful information that I didn't see much use for in other classes.  I wish I knew what was the matter with our administrators and all the political people.  They keep cutting education and the classes that are practical and for some kids keep them going until graduation.  I see where that "contracts yuck" might be taken that they might have smaller classes but his comment was that he can't do anything about the over load with the tiny kids because the contract has no language in about 5th grade.  Yet they are more likely to get hurt that the older kids.  It is a serious situation that is happening in more places than just our town.  Sadly!  I gave him all your suggestions plus others I found and after talking to him he did admit that he was a bit overwhelmed with the way his hands are tyed and the youngness of the kids and behavior problems.  But looking at the stuff found it was like taking a load off.  I have a tendency to make things more complicated than it needs to be and I think he was doing the same thing.  So a great big thank you again to all that helped send suggestions!

Thanks for the short stroll down memory lane.  Those round robin carvings
were fun.

Not sure who may still be on this list but I'll go on with this anyway....

 

Yesterday was our annual show and so I brought along my short dowel display
of the round robin carvings from 1998-99.   I do this every couple of years
or so.   Yesterday,  the round robin caused more interest in a single item
on the table than I have seen in awhile.   I must have told the story of
those segments 100 times during the day.   (Do you think that meant the rest
of my table was boring???)  I sure hope not.   

 

Anyway just wanted to say that reliving the nerves,  excitement and just
plain fun that those segments brought to me was a very cool thing.   Thanks
to Len Dillon,  Bill Russell and Loren Woodward for some history that still
brings smiles to many and great memories to me.

 

For those who may not know....The Round Robin Segments were regular
(typical) cane segments divided into  four areas using the corners.   A
theme is decided,  we did Santas first,  I think.   so each of the carvers
(4) carves a Santa on one corner of the segment and then mails it off to the
second person on the list,  shortly in the mail,  carver number one receives
a segment with a Santa already carved on the corner, at this time carver
number one carvers a Santa on the next available corner and mails it off to
the second person on the list.   When the segment arrives with three Santas
completed on the segment, carver number one carves the last corner and that
is the segment carver number one gets to keep.   So each carver ends up
carving 4 Santas on 4 different segments resulting in 4 completed segments
one for each participant.  Not as confusing as I make it sound,  I'm sure,
cause I got it figured out.   Anyway we ended up doing Santas,  Native
Americans,  Pretty Women (Ha Ha Ha) and Caraicature (sp?).   So my dowel has
4 segments with 16 carvings...quite unique and fun to look at and certainly
interesting to talk about. 

 

Hope this  hasn't been too boring to the masses but wanted to tell those who
may still be on the list that they were stars of the show yesterday.   A few
took pictures so who knows,  a whole new round robin may start up somewhere
out there....I can almost promise it will be fun.

Ask the Congress to cut their staff in half and reduce the size of congress
and senate in half.  With the advances  in technology they can reach the
people fast easier than before and can reduce their size and take a huge cut
in pay,,reduce the number of days they can meet and make it a part time job.

Ivan,

 

Here in Michigan one of our beloved Congressional leaders has suggested a
across the board 25% pay cut for teachers to help balance our budget (don't
tell the hat lady). This is rationalized as we just need to do this and the
old they only work 75% of the work year argument. When my wife heard this
after coming home from 32 kindergartners she said !@$$$%^&**((   !!!

 

DougE 

 

 

 

 

 

I admire our teachers who are continually placed in impossible situations
and somehow still come up with valid learning experiences for the kids.  It
isn't an easy task but somehow most of our teachers in the trenches find a
way. My highest regards always go to the people who teach our kids.  They
are the true heroes of our times.  Sadly, they are generally underpaid and
underappreciated.  With today's impossible class sizes and the cultural
diversity that challenges them, it's a wonder that they do as well as they
do..

 

Thanks to all of you who teach!

Join in on the fun!!!
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.

Patti-
I was encouraged to look more closely at your site and I sure was impressed with what I saw there. I am jealous about your beautiful shop too. What a wonderful place in which to create. 
You certainly have a handle on relief carving. The new one- sunflowers is super-duper. You must have a steady hand indeed.
Your son looked huggable to me-

Hello all, well this is the last piece I have done for the show. It was done
from a Mark Akers golf ball cage that I cut off and changed to a bust. I am
done and will be headed to the show tomorrow afternoon as the judging starts
at 5:00. Anyway you can view it here: http://iowacarver.tripod.com/id5.html

Thanks for looking as always!

town so I brought my mother in law with me and she did the table top dressed
up nice. We will see what happens in the morning!

Corey,

 

Good Luck !! Better to bring the mother-in-law than the girlfriend. Big Dog
gets paid off too easily !!

It was a fun day and the show was busy. Won't be near as busy tomorrow. I
did very well in the competition winning 10 ribbons. I got 2 honerable
mentions, 3 second place, 5 first place and 1 best of division. I received
$175.00 in cash as well. Not a bad haul for a hack with a knife :)  Got to
visit with Larry a bit and of we did a little bartering :)  Met Desiree
Hajny and what a nice nice gal.  My camera ran out of space so I will take
more pics tomorrow.

You can view pics from the show below:
