Hi there, i have been getting into the carving (slowly) I have a bit of willow in my garden which came down in the snow. I want to carve it into a bow drill set.
I know it has to be dry so should I leave it a year in smaller pieces to be carved later? Or should I fully carve it now and wait a few months?
Or do I just not bother, go to the woods and keep looking for dead standing wood of the right tree?
I have no money for a course so I really want to try it myself.
