Carving Undercover Santas – Fox Chapel Publishing at: https://foxchapelpublishing.com/carvi... A wood carving knife and simple hand chisels such as a V tools, #9 gouges and #11 gouges. The wood used for these wood carving basics I like to use basswood in all my carvings. This wood carving project is no exception. Find a reputable wood dealer and stick with him/her. Wood Carving on Cottonwood Bark Some of my videos use cottonwood bark. Again, find someone who can provide bark for you, or you can hunt for cottonwood bark yourself. The tree must have been dead for some time for the bark to come off. I sell bark at local wood carving shows. However, I do not sell via mail because the shipping costs are sometimes more than the cost of the bark itself.
