Description

Hand-carved (meaning no power tools at all) by 7th and 8th graders
The soft leather board is made of deer hide from the deer that Ethan Jantzer bagged in the fall.
The wood is Pacific NW: cedar, red wood, straight grain cedar from British Columbia and Alaskan white cedar from an Inuit wood carver in Alaska.
One piece is carved from wood obtained from the cabinet makers shop in Colonial Williamsburg.
Each piece bears the name of the wood carver (on the bottom)
