Re: Soapstone Bass
That is awesome! It is good to see some 3d stuff on the forum . You really have a lot of talent. Thanks for sharing with all fo us. It makes me want to sculpt something, except for I don't think I could really make it that well.

Re: Soapstone Bass
Soapstone is stone that 1st Nations People and Inuit people(Eskimo) carve into mostly arctic animals. Im just a big white guy that likes carving.
It can be cut with woodworking tools about the same hardness as basswood or butternut wood. Basically I cut everything off that doesn't look like a fish then file it with rasps and chisels. When I get a the exact shape I want then I wet sand it with 80,150, 220, 400, 800 then 1000grit then spray it with lacquer finish. That piece is 35 lbs and 21" long. I have a 135 lb salmon in my back yard that needs sanding.
