Description
Back in the old days, whittling was a relaxing pastime that would result in a useful wooden object. This kit will teach the skills used in this dying art. In the kit comes 8 blocks of wood of varying sizes, a whittling hints and safety guide, and patterns for 8 projects (knife not included). The guide and instruction sheet are quite brief, but the guide refers to You Tube videos for more instruction. (But then again, this is a learn-by-doing kind of skill!). Projects include a letter opener, birdhouse, pencil, twister, ball in cage, Santa, goldfish, and whistle. So sit a spell in your front porch rocking chair and start whittling.

Great for the outdoorsy types, scouts, campers, survivalists, adults - really anyone interested in learning to carve wood!

There are really good safety points covered in the instructions too. Gloves are for protecting the hand holding the block of wood and are made of a stretchy knit w/ grippy dots on both sides covering the entire glove. Thumb guards are made of suede & elastic and worn on the knife hand. ~ Sara
