pyrette from Michigan, Rating:2.0Don't buy to use on hot handles loop material is polyester which I hate would have preferred cotton material , seems to me it would melt when it meets heat, everything else in kit is plastic, Make these for coasters, bottle holder, just to look at, not pot holders or just to let the kids learn to make them I guess. Would I buy it again, no.

crafter987 from turlock,ca, Rating:4.0lots of thread.....great colors.. ...good instructions!!!!! great for young girls to make all those friendship braclets that they love so much....the only thing that would have made this better is if the weaving form where a more durable material....they tend to get bent up easily..especially as the girls where trying to learn the method.

sidney8 from Chicago, IL, Rating:4.0Bought this kit for my 13 year old daughter who loves to make projects and she loved it. It was a little challenging, but fun for her to create something that she could give to someone else as a gift.

I've been looking into stone carving/sculpting as a hobby and have been told that soapstone is a good way to start. I've heard that you can use wood rasps to shape the stone. Does anyone have experience with this, or maybe a suggestion on where I can find some starter tools? Thanks!
try buying a dremel tool and they usually have all the accessories to cut,carve sand,route etc. [link removed]
Soapstone or a chunk of alabaster would be a terrific place to begin. We used a rasp, and then sandpaper, and finally noxon to bring up the shine (an old sock with the noxon while you watch TV works great!) I took an introductory class and our work was not meant to be detailed, I suspect the dremel might be the way to go if you were looking for more detail.
Well I just ordered a set of wood rasps today. I put it off for a long time, but decided to go that route. I'm not looking for detail, more of a meditative exercise and I think that the sound of the dremel would interfere with that. I'll look into noxon. I've never heard of it. Also what grain of sandpaper would you recommend? Thanks!
