Hey everyone I want to try to carve my first tiki but I need a little help before I get started...I need to know what the best tools are for doing the carving its self...I know many carvers use a chainsaw but since I am only 18 and tight on money right now I don't think I will be able to buy one...My other problem is that the only wood I can carve is whatever I find around my town...what are the best tools to use to remove the bark...then actually do the carving and I guess sealing it or staining it when I finish it...any tips or suggestions would be great...thanks
