Carving Bears and Bunnies
Beginning with a plain block of bass wood or white pine, leading wood-carver Tom Wolfe shows you how to create bunnies and bears that are the epitome of “cuddly."

Tom Wolfe's carved bears, in their original form and as reproductions, have found their way into the hearts of people across the nation. Beginning with a plain block of bass wood or white pine, Tom shows how to create a menagerie of bear and bunny characters that are the epitome of "cuddly" and will be beloved by children and adults alike.

These projects are perfect for the person who carves for relaxation. After bandsawing the patterns, they can be completed with the simplest of tools: a knife, a gouge, a veiner, and nailset.
