What is a technique to help me hand-chisel a relief-cut accross the grain on soft wood?
Q. chiseling relief cut in small blocks of pine. Chiseling roughly a 2 inch square that is about 3/16'' deep into soft pine blocks. The purpose is to provide a recess for mounting square topped legs to these small blocks which are then used to provide a strong joint to the seat of small stools. I have completed one stool, but the chiseling was very slow and tedious, especially having to chisel cross-grain on the pine. I only ruined one block and had to cut another. However, I feel maybe better technique could help me. Can anyone give me some good tips for hand chiseling soft wood, especially having to cut cross-grain.

A. I would be doing it with a router and a template. Then I would only have to chisel the corners to make them square. If you are going to chisel across grain, you need a very, very sharp chisel. How often have you sharpened yours? If you are using one from the hardware store without sharpening it, you probably don't have a very good edge on the chisel.

A. Everyone has their own technique. What age group/s are you going to be reading to. If the children are young the best thing to do is keep it interactive. Read the story and then point out the object you are going to say next. So if you were reading the cat in the hat, you would point to hat and ask them what that. After doing that 2 time they will catch on and watch you hands and listen to your words so they will be ready to say the next word. That is the technique I use. If it is a counting book point to the numbers and encourage them to count with you. Object identification and recognition is apart of development. Dont'for get each character needs their own voice and actually make the sounds like moo or knock when it says knocking.
