2008
Rihards Vidzickis

Specific character of massive wood carving in the end fiber is expounded into this article. It is accented directly the nuances of woodcarving there. With woodcarving into the end fiber are possible to get more refined and detailed sculptures as making them otherwise. Sometimes exactly fine parts have a critical meaning and that is important for cognitive trail objects. Sculpture curved into the end fiber has a higher mechanical endurance and also they are more protected from part separation at the cracking process. Nowadays effective processing of end fibers is possible only thanks to progressive electrical and internal combustion hand tools and it accessories. Different cutting discs and grinding discs that are fixing on to grinders have a great meaning. Each manufacturer offers these discs with small differences. In the same way it is not possible to dispense without traditional hand tools that already are known since ancient days and are actual today also. Part of them is different size and profile carving gauges and drawshaves. Usually wood carving in the end fiber is connected with the higher level of power consumption and load of tools. But some flat objects could be realized much easy in the end fiber then with curving processes in other fiber directions. Outdoor objects have to made from appropriate material and have been impregnated accordingly concrete conditions.
