What is that tool you're using to carve it?

[ReiMonCoH]

@Blackwarrior710- its a block plane

[eriklane]

that's another thing, how do you sharpen the blades on your planer?

[ReiMonCoH]

Theres a tool you can get that holds the Block planer blde so you can sharpen w  a wetstone.

[Vondrakon]

how you curve the wood

[ReiMonCoH]

I've always believed that a true master will make his/her own tools, etc. A tool will always work sweeter if it was your own sweat and blood created the tool.
