LEARN TO CARVE WOOD!
Visitors, guest carvers, and new members are always welcome!
Meetings are fun and informal.  Dues are only $1 per month!  
See our
About Us page for details.

  • Woodcarving is easy to learn and an inexpensive hobby to start!
  • All you need is a sharp knife, a chunk of wood and Band-Aids!
  • If you mess up your carving...you have designer firewood! (And you just start over!)
  • You can sell your woodcarvings or give them as gifts!
  • Woodcarvers are down-to-earth and outright friendly folk!
  • Wood Carving is fun and relaxing and you can take it with you almost anywhere!
