I am a fairly new carver and i carve fish. I just ordered a woodburner and will be scaling my fish with it. I'd like to stay busy in the shop so I have a question: Should I go ahead and put the fins on before I burn scales? CAn I get in behind fins to burn in scales? :
Accornding to the book I just got, ' Carving Fish' by Jim Jensen pub by Fox Chapel (available here) you should leave the fins off. This book has step by step instructions on laying out and burning the scales.
