Thank you @pznoodle I use mostly the saw but not exclusively. I'll use grinders, dremels, foredom, chisels and finish off with the airbrush.

One more question if you won't mind, what do you do with all the chips and scraps you make while carving? I'm assuming there's a substantial lot of it made?

I have a number of people take scrap and sawdust. Also pay to get it removed and brought to be composted
