Cal Walters

Cal is from Slinger, WI, and spends his winters in Arizona.  He initially became interested in woodcarving
about 18 years ago when he wanted to use carving as a means to decorate furniture.  Woodcarving soon
became his main interest, and it was only about 2 years ago that he finally decorated several furniture
pieces with carving.  Cal has taught at woodcarving clubs in Wisconsin, Florida and Arizona and at various
seminars around the country including the Texas Woodcarvers Guild’s spring seminars, War Eagle,
Arkansas’s annual seminar, and Evart, Michigan’s Woodcarvers Roundup.  Cal is active in
several carving clubs and is always ready to help new carvers get started.
Cal will be teaching relief Christmas ornaments.  He offers over 25 different patterns to choose from.  
Each ornament has its own basswood storage/display box which can also be carved.  The patterns range
from simple to detailed and provide a good selection for the beginning to advanced carver.  The ornaments
are carved with the usual assortment of gouges, V-tools, and a sharp knife.  Painting and finishing
guidelines will also be provided
