First I have to say that I am NOT selling anything except posting a note about some tools I use.
Forget about what the CW can and cannot do. I think it is all about what wood you use for carving anything and the detail you will receive on the final carving. I get the best detail using lacewood that has a very interlocking grain. (some call it leopardwood or tigerwood?). Do you like brown?
I found a inexpensive set of Riffler files to do clean-up on details that may need a bit of 'fixing'... I 'love em'.... I even use them on brass and aluminium and whatever...
See: http://www.internethobbies.com/sqrifiset1.html
The above link is a set of ten small Riffler Files. No they are not a $500.00 set of Swiss Riffler files!
And see: http://www.internethobbies.com/crunfl9fl5fl.html
I have NOTHING to do with the above links.. Just tools I use all the time.
