Found these free books. Published in 1961, they look like they've never been cracked open. I thought I'd challenge myself beyond carving a single letter.
What make's this come together artistically for me is the book title and the words I chose to carve. WE was easy. LOVE took a lot more work (---uh, referring to this project).
They are a work in progress (---still referring to this project) as I want to add my own good stuff to the pages.
Tools: paper templates to trace, chalk, bandsaw, electric drill and various bits, painters tape, box knife, sandpaper, acrylic varnish, patience.
