Workplace rules for woodcarvers

Keep small knives left, rasps and canvas right. Big knives behind the work. Then you will have your  ten fingers for sure and your knives will remain not destroyed by rasps and sanding canvas.

Marionette movies part 1

Just some of my marionettes (string-puppets) in action.

Above an old dog from “The Four Musicians Of Bremen”. Be nice to him. He cannot run, cannot escape, cannot catch food…

An old fashioned devil or the good old devil. Everybody needs one. You seem to not believe me. But lsten: when a real devil sees a devil (a wooden one) next to you, the real devil thinks: “There’s one of my friends taking care of the man.There’s nothing to do for me.” And then the devil leaves you alone…

An old man. Just an old man, but he played in almost all my shows. We are friends. I promised to change his eyes a little bit, but I still forget. I’m not a quite good friend for him.
