Whittling On the Go begins with information on what you need to know to start whittling, including tools, materials, knife sharpening, and techniques. Next, David covers finishing your project with instructions for his simple painting technique to achieve professional-looking results.
Using these techniques, you'll then whittle 13 beautifully illustrated projects specifically designed for beginners. The easy projects build upon one other, each adding a new technique and skill to your repertoire and further refining your whittling skills.

Each project uses a 1" x 1" x varying length block and can be completed in less than an hour. For instance, the cactus needs a 1" x 1" x 3" block, the wood spirit uses a 3/4" x 3/4" x 3" block, and the gnome a 1" x 1" x 2" block. The scale of the projects and the use of minimal tools and supplies make carving possible in virtually any space or location! Small and easy to carry along, you can whittle while camping, traveling, or waiting to pick the kids up from soccer practice.
