  I have a suggestion. Start with Styrofoam and an Exacto knife. Graduate to Balsa wood. Learn the techniques and feel of the blade. White pine takes substantive hand strength / control. A few trials with the prior materials...away you go. Good fortune!

    Good advice! If I get my other stuff done, I may just look around for some styrofoam this holiday season...

      I've been in manufacturing for over 30 years now. I'm still old-school. All manual machines and techniques....supporting folks who need "Onsies" and automated production. Still love to watch the "Old-timers" ply their passions.

They would make a nice last minute Christmas present. You could even paint them festive, and put the gift receiver’s name on them.
