Mar 26, 2019 at 6:52 comment added Graphus @SteveInCO, yeah and in addition you'd need to get really good at sharpening it right now since the gouges don't work at all well unless sharp as a razor. There's an Answer that can help with that but cutting the groove entirely by hand I don't think is viable for someone with zero experience (although I am upvoting the Answer since it is a perfectly acceptable option for how to do this).
Mar 25, 2019 at 23:44 comment added Steve In CO Yeah, if I had any talent at carving that might be the answer. I don't even own a gouge, so I'd have to do a lot of practicing. :-)
Mar 25, 2019 at 16:30 comment added SaSSafraS1232 @CharlieKilian Yeah, I was actually thinking about mentioning that in my answer. Given the slight irregularity I'm pretty sure this was done by hand to begin with.
Mar 25, 2019 at 16:16 comment added Katie Kilian Also, it strikes me that this is probably how the original piece was done.

Mar 25, 2019 at 16:14 comment added Katie Kilian I thought of that too, but I'm a terrible carver. If you do have experience (or find that you can pick it up easily enough), this is a good way to go.
