Walrus Oil Products
Founded in the U.S. by woodworker Dave Darr in 2017, Walrus Oil makes solvent-free products that are safe and easy to use and produce excellent results. From their initial offering of wood finishes, their line has expanded to include cutting board soap, axe oil, leather care products and more. Walrus Oil donates a portion of the proceeds from sales of their products to environmental initiatives. (Despite the company name, no actual walruses are involved in the making of these products.)
Woodcarving uses primarily hand but also power tools to create decorative or practical objects out of wood. It includes multiple disciplines and styles, all with their own unique techniques and results. Some of the more common types of woodcarving are relief carving, carving in the round, chip carving, whittling and power carving. Our extensive selection of books on carving offer readers the opportunity to learn the various carving styles, from basic techniques and easy projects for beginners to more advanced challenges for experienced carvers.
