I've got this

So I wanted to try them on something right away! I guess you use this to carve a flat piece of wood, but i didn't have any, so i went trhu my home and the first thing I could find was my "mate" (it's a beverage we drink here,you fill this with "yerba mate" and put hot water on it, then you drink trhu the "bombilla")

But the wood was too hard...
So the second thing i could find was a percussion instrument made of Bamboo,and this is what I managed to sort of carve (more like scratch i would say,because it's not to thick...) :)




and here you can see the rest of it

I think I'm going to stain the inner cuts, and maybe do something with the other ones, I don't know yet, any suggestions are welcome :)!
