Hello carving friends -

Big changes are in the works for Woodcarver Online Magazine and the Carvers' Companion web sites. This will be the last new issue you will see in this particular format. Watch this site, the Woodcarver List and the Woodcarver List Facebook group page for more information.

If you are a Facebook member, take time to visit the Carvers' Companion/Woodcarver List Facebook group. This provides a place on FB for carvers to post carving photos and to chat about carving; it also serves as a companion to the Woodcarver Listserv. Come on by for a visit!
