wood carved hand time-lapse

Here's a video of some of the carving I did today- most interesting to me are the growing number of chisels on the bench. They move around like insects as the vibrations of my chipping make them move minute amounts. My coffee cup also does it. My mate Emlyn made a massive stone egg when we were in college. It was so big he had to use two pieces of stone because it needed to be naturally bedded to go outside. As he spent a day carving the top half he would find he had moved round as the day wore on. The stone, which weighed about a ton, had shuffled round a tiny bit every time he hit it with hammer and chisel and he'd been chasing it. There's an artwork in there somewhere.
