Prior to each meeting, we hold a Skills Enhancement session from 3:00-6:00pm where members socialize, work on personal carving projects and can participate in activities to improve individual skills and techniques. We periodically offer a Carver’s Sharpening Clinic where we help diagnosis issues with individual sharpening techniques. Bring your individual carving tools and learn how to take them to the next level of sharpness which is crucial to effective carving.
