Carving tutorial

[Dave Stevens (Lumberyard)]

the laser cutting department was such down for the last 6 weeks due to covid in the shop.

but after weeks i got the laset cut blanks.

i don't claim to be good at carving but i will give it my best shot. If you want to carve along the blanks will be available

Those would be an excellent start for carvings.

the carving is at a large scale making it easy to carve details

i am still working on the Tecumseth but prepping this project.

the idea here is to work backwards and do the carvings first, by doing the carvings first and they look good then a builder can "add" to the project and build a stern section to hang their carving on. I figure by approaching the project this way a builder does not have to spend time building a stern section then getting stuck on the carvings.
The stern section and drawings are based on the work of Harold Hahn



should a builder like to add to their carvings here is a rough prototype of the entire stern, all the frame parts, window frames and deck beams will be laser cut



you can add a deck and cabin details on the inside.



here is a visual aid as to what the carving should look like
