Step 3: Start carving the chamber
(BEFORE YOU DO ANY CARVING TAKE EXTREME CARE, CARVING TOOLS ARE SHARP
AND WILL GIVE YOU A NASTY GASH, NOT JUST A CUT. RESPECT SHARP TOOLS ! )
Begin carving the inside of the ocarina by scoring the lines with red arrows pointing to them with the
chisel facing out. (As a side note; if you have a router you could probably rout out the inside.)
Again using the chisel start digging out the inside by working the chisel to the score mark.
As you carve up to the edge continually score it to keep the walls as clean as possible.
Stop part of the way down and cut the airway .Carve slivers at a time and Finnish it with a file.
Some notes on the air way it is shaped like a ramp, and starts big and end small with the width remaining the same.
The air way at the end that you blow should be about 2/32" and the end that is part of the cavity should be about 1/32".
Ok set this part aside and for now and get the sheet that will be the top of the ocarina out.
