Please Note: You do not need to purchase all of the wood carving tools in the list.  The beginning set of 16 tools is recommended for all students.  After one or two classes you will have a better understanding of which tools you need to purchase. You can use Dimitrios' carving tools for any tools you may need until you can purchase your own.  Please call if you have any questions.
