Numbers 5,6,or 7 will work for this. 5 is a handy side I like. A 3/4″ wide is wide enough but a 1″ is good for larger carvings we will need on projects down the road.
I have just been on to my-tool-shed.co.uk and placed an order for three gouges 1″ , 5/8″ and 3/8″ and a spoon gouge all at £2.79 each I hope they are the same chisels Paul had ? at that price I cant wait to see what they are like . How can any body make a chisel that can sell for £2.79
