so... newbie
guess this is the most appropriate preexisting thread to ask a question

what exactly do i need to carve jade (into a hei-tiki)?
dremel w/ flexshaft + a grinder and a respirator?
would that be good enough to start?

i dont want to buy tools and find out theyre not good enough :P


Kia ora Proselyte.
For a good rundown on tools & processes, try reading this thread right through and/or the first few pages of my own thread (just a bit too much to try and explain all here/now)
*The tools you mention would be a good start... Im happy to answer any specific questions once you're rolling. Good luck!

Tama :)
