Has anyone made a sculptors' adz from either a carpenters ripping (straight claw) hammer or a brick masons hammer? how to do it and which type of hammer to use. I create wood bowls and an adz would be real handy. The new one available do not fit my hands, to big in the head and handle, handle to long, too heavy etc.
Thanks for your help.

I have visited Wood Butcher Tools and tried out the carving adzs that they have in stock (Swedish - Grunfors?? spelling) good tools but the heft, balance and handle were all wrong for me. I have small hands for a man. A barrel makers adz might be the correct toll for me if I could find to try?? Just another idea.
Thanks for the responses.
