Learn the foundational skills of carving with hand tools and the joy of whittling beautiful useful wooden objects from tent pegs to spatulas and much more! Part one of this two-part class will teach participants how to safely use a razor sharp axe to split, chop, and shave wood into a myriad of useful items. We will spend this 2 hour class working toward producing a simple wooden tent peg using just the axe. You'll leave with new understandings of how to use the simple, yet fundamental tool of a sharp axe to in safe and confident ways. You may even surprise yourself with the things that you realize you can make with just one tool!
Take this class as a standalone or coupled with the knife skills class to get a well-rounded introduction to using these fundamental hand tools.
