Carving Tool
notes: label: Description
content: This small pick was used to add tiny details to the wooden carvings such as lines for feathers and different patterns. This tiny tool was crucial to Mr. Oka's success in making his carvings as realistic and detailed as possible. This is one of the few tools he was actually able to use, he and his carving class was very limited on tools and materials due to their incarceration.
