    Hi all, I'm seeking a Master Woodcarver who could make some wooden swords for my son, fancy ones like reproductions of Lord of the Rings styles. I'm thinking that there are all kinds of carpenters here, making wooden furniture & cabinets & such, and one of these might have the tools, skills and interest to make us a few swords as an extra gig. Can anyone suggest somebody -- name, location, phone #? We live in southern Dumaguete, so hopefully not far away..... Thanks!

    Expatron, may know of an expat who carves wood etc, living in Sibulan, he may be willing to give it a go.

    I would to know more about the wood carver/sculptor and see pictures of his work. I have numerous Filipino paintings but no wood carvings or sculpture.

    How about this man? Taken a few years ago, when he was working on some of my projects.

    It has been years, I will try my best to get you there. The owner of the wood shop is ANDIE. You go south out of Bacong, 1 or 2 KL. It is the first place on the seaward side after you cross a small bridge. It is called MAUREZE Lumberyard & Construction Supplies. I no longer have the number. They did 6 doors and all the kitchen cabinets for us. We are very satisfied with their work and price.
