There is no single woodworking project that you can create without the fundamental material – wood. When you're an experienced craftsman, you pick wood according to your carving needs. But if you are a beginner, difficulties with finding the perfect wood can take away any desire to create. To make your path to a new hobby easy and stress-free, BeaverCraft offers you our optimal BW18 Basswood Carving Blocks Set.

In the first stages, softwoods are the best suitable wood type for creating carvings (which one to choose – depends on the purpose of the product and its appearance).
Carving is a complex form of decorative art. That is why you should select the material according to your experience. Many beginners prefer BeaverCraft BW18 basswood blocks for their whittling projects.

These basswood blocks are easy to process with a chisel and special wood carving knives. The basswood fibers are thin, so even inexperienced woodcarvers can work with this wood easily. Complex ornaments and small details will look very beautiful. The color of the wood looks amazing – light, almost white, with a smooth texture.

Such a large set of basswood blocks of different sizes will allow you to experiment, hone your carving skills and create more new and unusual carvings without fear of ruining a wooden blank. There are 18 different basswood blocks that you can use to bring the most intricate wood carving ideas to life.

  • 12 blocks: 2,5 cm х 2,5 cm х 10 (1” x 1” x 4”)
  • 6 blocks: 5 cm x 5 cm x 5 cm (2″ x 2″)
