[Woodcarver] New Question

[Karen Henderson]

Hi Doug,  I always carve in my recliner in the living room (unless I can carve 
outdoors!).  I use a special made apron with long wings that go over the arms of 
the chair and has a deep pocket where I slip a lap board covered with carpet. 
 The carpet holds the chips and the apron catches the excess.  Always a little 
"overspill" but most of the mess is contained.  And - I AM the wife so I get to 
clean up the rest myself.
Karen

Hi all,
 
I have  a new questions where I hope we can have some fun and pass on some good 
tips with our chips !
 
When carving outside of your shop, the family room, doctor’s office, the trendy 
expensive restaurant , church how do you clean up your chips ?
 
I know the sheet method , the mini-vacuum etc. What specifically do you use ? I 
have tried so many mini=vacs for a quick clean up only to find they don’t have 
the SUCK power to get the job done.
 
Tell us when how you have caught HE double hockey stick form others for those 
D#@n chips laying all over ??  Where is the most unusual place you have ever 
carved ?/(I’m leaking this to the Chinese !)
 
My wife (the luck one) Mary Ann will love it if I learn any clean up techniques 
! (no take a shower comments please )
 
I can only imagine where this will go (I have a very limited imagination ) !
 
Have fun !
 
Doug Evans
