Hi everyone. I was thinking it would be fun to see/talk about all of the different tools that are used for bone carving.

Anyone care to share?

I carve deer antler. I use a dremel tool with a carbide burr to rough out the carving. I use a carving knife to scrape surfaces smooth and a graver (metal graver) to make lines and for scraping hard to reach areas.
