What's a guy to do when his desk job is burning him out? Carve skulls! My name is Hunter and I live in Virginia USA and for the past 10+ years I have been working as a real estate appraiser her in VA and working 80+ hour weeks during the busy season leaving me with little time for my family and the outdoors. So, I decided to change that. I have always loved the outdoors and working with my hands building things and carving when I had the time. With my entrepreneurial skills I plan to transfer out of my desk job and pursue my love for all things outdoors and craftsman! I want to share my journey with you and hope that you can learn something along the way. I am very open to sharing how to work with skulls and what I have learned through trial and error. please share your own work here and ask as many questions as you want. Let's get carving!

In my quest to find a burr to carve spheres I found these guys - DualSpur Circle Carving Drill Bits - from Cool Izzy. I ordered them and then when it tool like 4 months to arrive I was beginning to think it was a scam website.

Here is my findings. They work good for carving circles in bone but if you plunge the burr down to create the sphere it starts to chip the bone. So I'll keep them for carving circles.

But, they actually carve surprisingly well in wood!

"Hyena Starfighter" 3d printed hyena skull hand carved by me (Hunter Richardson) using a Dremel 4000 with the Mandalorian symbol.

Most definitely a fun one to carve for me! I added the metal patina in the openings to kinda give the feel there was a more organic inside to the techno skull.

Elk Antler Ring with Real Turquoise Inlay | Rustic Men's Ring | Size 11
$60.00

Handcrafted from genuine elk antler, this ring features a hand-carved channel filled with genuine crushed turquoise stone. The vivid blue-green turquoise creates a striking contrast against the warm, natural tones of the antler, resulting in a timeless design inspired by the outdoors. Each channel is carefully carved by hand before being inlaid with real crushed turquoise and polished smooth, creating a seamless finish that is both eye-catching and comfortable to wear. The natural grain of the elk antler ensures that every ring is completely unique. This is a size 11 ring and is the exact ring featured on page 67 of my book, The Antler Ring Guide - Simple Tools and Steps to Make Your Own Rings From Antlers. If you own the book, you'll recognize this ring and the techniques used to create it. Every ring is individually shaped, sanded, inlaid, and polished by hand to create a durable, comfortable pi…

All organisms go through stages of decomposition once they die. These stages are Fresh, Bloat, Active Decay, Advanced Decay, and Dry/Remains.

I have tried to capture these stages in some goat skulls I have been cleaning.

It's fascinating stuff
