I brought myself and the knife somehow at the edge of my current chip carving skills with this letters size in Swiss Pine Wood. The lowercases are ca. 11,5 cm in height. The cuts are quite deep. The board is ca. 95 cm long and will be placed at the outside of a cottage—it reads the cottage’s name. That’s my very first commissioned work in chip carving! 😉

By the way … according to Wikipedia the Swiss Pine Wood or Arve, Zirbe (Latin “Pinus Cembra”) only grows in the Alps up to the timberline and on some spots in the Carpathian Mountains. It’s scent is really very pleasant and it’s pure joy to carve this wood. Okay, the hard spots are very hard. Brittle even.

Hope you enjoy.

Take care everybody.
