A couple of my miniature carousel horses and a picture of the class projects from one of the carousel carving classes I taught at the MAWC seminar in Nebraska.

Thanks. They are done in basswood. A lot of carvers work primarily with basswood because it is about the same hardness as pine, so it takes detail well but it doesn't have the heavy grain of pine so no big fight with hard/soft/hard. I've done some work with walnut, catalpa, cedar and oak(not great) but basswood is nicest to work with.
