We will suppose that the student is anxious to make a practical commence ment to his studies. The first consideration will be to procure a set of tools, and we propose in this place to describe those which will answer the pur poses of a beginner, as well as to look generally at others in common use amongcraftsmen. The tools used by carvers consist for the most part of chisels and gouges of different shapes and sizes. The number of tools required by professional carvers for one piece of work varies in proportion to the elaborateness of the carving to be done. They may use from half a dozen on simple work up to twenty or thirty for the more intricate carvings, this number being a selection out of a larger stock reaching perhaps as many as a hundred or more.
