Make: Getting Started with 3D Carving

Do I understand correctly the title has slipped to April 2017?

Hello, I just put an order through Amazon and I will read your book with great interest.

It took 2 years to write it because I rewrote the whole thing after 1 year. I wasn’t able to work on it every day. I mostly did it on weekends.

I will admit that writing a book is much harder than it seemed.

I had a lot of help with the editing and I’m confident people are going to find some mistakes.

All that being said I wrote this for people who have never carved before. I think it will help them get going and connect with the community.

Some people at our company read it and said they learned something. I hope for people that read it and have done the projects or have more advanced skills they come away with one idea or learn one new thing that they had not before. If they don’t I hope they give the book to someone who is just getting started.

Having a beginners mindset is liberating. It’s easy to get wrapped up in what we know.

Stay hungry…stay foolish.
