cgb Posted December 29, 2009 Report Share Posted December 29, 2009 greetings and salutations i have just discovered the art form of netsuke and am both purchasing and building my tools i have a few unique advantages in this area with a background of design, engineering, machinist, black smithing, leather working, knife making, minor lapidary, and minor carving plus a smatering of other skills. since i have found the idea of netsuke i have begun to amass a set of diagrams as well as a list of tools to make and will keep many here abreast of both my tool making and also my carving. if i am able i will be happy to add in tutorials on manufacturing blades and such as my time permits. thank you and i look foward to growing with all of you.
