Also, the information about other good woods will be good for everyone visiting. I've carved cottonwood bark (by hand) but never cottonwood itself. I'll have to give it a try.

I've been power carving for about a year now. Agree, it's very important to have the safety measures in place if you are going to power carve. I have a Foredom and a PennState dust controller, mask with filters on both sides and safety eye glasses. Generally, I don't totally powercarve a complete carving, but also use hand/mallet tools also. I agree about the fuzzing with basswood, haven't tried tupelo, tried butternut the jury is still out on that one. Cottonwood lends itself well to power carving. Here in northern Arizona where I live we have Fremont Cottonwood. Hand tools work well also. I'll add your site to my favorites and also a link on my web site for you.
