Hi guys,
I'm new to the forum and to wood whittling/carving but i do have a background in stone and clay sculpture. Im looking at buying some wood to hand carve but im finding it difficult to locate an easy to hand carve wood anywhere that would sell it to me in blocks. I'm looking at basswood and butternut but obviously their both rare to find, does anyone have any other ideas on types of wood and also where it can be bought, like a art and craft shops as well as timber yards.
