The small sea turtle is one of my first wooden sculptures. It is simple and fast carving for beginners. In this video I made the earth turtle. I used my knife and a short cylinder of branch. He is the best for this woodcarving… for me.

About me and my channel:
I am not a professional woodcarver and, especially, not a master or a teacher. However, I enjoy carving small wooden sculptures. Here, you will find my little simple projects, and I hope they help you relax.

About my knife:
For wood carving, I used my regular whittling knife which I made myself; the blade length is 40 mm, and the overall length of the knife is 130 mm.

For beginners:
Using a short piece of branch can be dangerous for beginners. So, I recommend trying to use a long and comfortable piece, and trim it at the end.
