The other issue may be the wood. My first projects were done in hard woods and I had a blast working with the chisels. I later tried "practicing" with basswood and was very disappointed. Basswood is so soft that I found razor-sharp knives worked better than chisels or rotary tools. Stay sharp and post pictures!!
