Tools Carvers Use - Tiki Carving

While working on my palm tree, I think I have a couple of applications for scorps - you know - under cuts against the grain, or even with the grain for that matter, which might be accomplished easier with a scorp. Can you comment on these tools? Do you use them? Is there always another way to dig out from under, without a scorp? I have two particular details in that dumb palm tree that would seem to lend themselves to a couple of flexcut scorps, and I'm wondering if I should buy them. Since I quit smoking, the wahine would not object to me buying a couple more tools, instead of a carton of marlboros. What do you think? Thanks, Your humble student, TG [ Edited by: tikigap 2006-06-08 05:57 ]
