Hi all.
I'm new to the Board, and have a question. I want to carve more pumpkins and want to try to do the 'shaving" or "etching" or whatever you call it when you don't cut all the way through and just remove the skin. It looks so cool! Anyway, I was going to buy a VersaTool, but I don't see anyone talking about how that tool can be used for doing this. Can any of you experienced foam carvers tell me how to do this effectively? If I have to spend the extra for a dremel vs a versa tool, I will do so, I just want to make sure that if I spend the money, I purchase the right equipment! Thank you kindly!!!
