Soft enough to carve easily and strong enough to allow for lots of detail. We'll see if I get my wish!!

Hope this works out, not so much for me because the exodus from PZ Kut has taught be to carve on hard and soft materials, but more so for you Webfoot, that this long yellow bricked road might lead you to an Emerald city of your own. Thank you for all your hard work and patience. We are so humbled that you have put so much into this adventure.jackbearhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14803016974413923454noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7204676711233851984.post-82915189061938296512012-04-24T12:10:19.877-07:002012-04-24T12:10:19.877-07:00Yes, there should be plenty to go around.

For reference, that means it will be similar in size to the runs of MZ Kut and NZ Kut that I have had made, which should be enough to give everybody who wants to try some an opportunity to get their gouges into it.Webfoothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14325420146709784342noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7204676711233851984.post-71736506130975304102012-04-24T11:40:11.091-07:002012-04-24T11:40:11.091-07:00I'd like to try a sample of OZ but I have carv...I'd like to try a sample of OZ but I have carving material and don't want to take one away from someone who needs it.

It's actually a good idea to do that with any block, whether it has a sheen or not, because there are frequently residues from the extrusion process on the material surface. <br /><br />The good news about the surface treatment for OZ Kut is that because of the way it is being manufactured, there won't be any roughed up or crimped edges like there used to be on PZ Kut, so the block will be usable all the way out to the edge. :)Webfoothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14325420146709784342noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7204676711233851984.post-8901499230049514272012-04-24T03:20:44.957-07:002012-04-24T03:20:44.957-07:00Will it still be necessary to sand the sheen from ...Will it still be necessary to sand the sheen from the surface so it will take ink better?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7204676711233851984.post-7746281436225337062012-04-24T02:02:58.179-07:002012-04-24T02:02:58.179-07:00It was a pleasure to be part of the process.
