block chisel dig draw electric hand legs pull specialty tools wood
We use some draw knifes, where you can actually put the wooden block between your legs and you have a set of draw knifes and they will dig into the wood and pull up. We use some hand routers, we also have electric routers, but a lot of it is specialty hand tools, they're wood working tools that you actually get in there and chisel away some of the wood.
block came carved display fantastic feet foot four hand rack
He used to do hand carved feet and he actually had a display rack that he would show me. These are the four feet that he could carve for you out of a wooden block and he could carve it right down to the toenails. That was fantastic to see. That was his trade-secret., You wanted a foot - he wasn't going to show how to make it. But if you came to him, he'd make you one and that's where everyone has his little secrets.
