    My family and I have spent the last few months creating an instructional book and video on how to carve, detail, and paint a rattlesnake walking stick. In both, I share every step of my process from the tools I use and curing wood, to roughing out the snake's shape, carving down to the details, wood burning, and giving your snake a realistic paint job.

    I've been meaning to get more into wood carving, and this may just be the final kicker. I like working with wood, but I've only ever done basic carpentry. Maybe now I can get into woodworking in a relaxing way. Thank you for the book, Mike! It will be put to good use!

    that's GREAT! I've watched so many videos, and I don't even know how to carve, anything. I do love watching a master woodcarver do his work. You sir are worth watching.
    I'll buy it for my brother, he too is a genius with wood.

After months of searching for inspiration I've found two carvers that stand out with such intricate, painstaking detail and incredible realism in their creations. One is you and the other is "Mad Carver" Randall Stoner. I will be buying your book as soon as possible and I'm most thankful you've shared your insight and experiences. Congratulations on being a 1st order master craftsman. Keep up the good work.
