tools for carving

Post by Pup »

I thought of the club members here that do not have access to Bonsai Focus when I saw this. An article on carving and styling a large Juniper.
They used a tool made by proxxon.

There are some very useful carving tools there for any one interested.

Lots of nice looking tools there. The only thing is I couldn't find the pricing information for these.

I also for just made an order for a couple of rotary chisels that I saw some guy on youtube used. These come in different size shank diameters for use with Dremel tools or normal hand drills. I Will keep inform when they've arrived.

Always we hope someone else has the answer.
Bonsai is an art of shrinking.
