[Woodcarver] New Question

[Hans]

Doug-

I have used an old laptop case which works well for small carvings.
When I open it all the way and lay it on a table, it has a small work
area with a rim that is a few inches high all the way around. The
first photo in this blog post shows the setup (though you cannot see
all of the case.)

The part I like is that I can keep the carving, a small set of carving
tools, sharpening supplies and everything I need in the case.

I look forward to hearing the other ideas.

Thanks!
