What is the best suitable wood to use for wood carving?



"Bodock"! from the French... bois de arc (did I spell that right?)

There are a lot of suitable woods. "The best" is probably what you can get cheaply and easily. Good woods are: basswood lime (or linden) cedar mahogany poplar pecan

Yes, did you call me....
