Your guide through the lost arts and the forgotten crafts. Brian Stockman is a master carver with more than 50 years of experience carving all mediums from wood, to stone, horn, bone, ivory, and ice. He has a particular speciality as a scrimshander (one who does scrimshaw), carrying on the ancient art popularized by New England whalers. Brian has spent a lifetime gathering knowledge of lost arts and forgotten crafts, all of which he shares with you: From flint knapping arrowheads to making backpacks from Bass tree bark (during peeling season, of course), to tapping maple trees using traditional hand tools, to carving gnomes from deer antler, scrimshawing a whale on a whale's tooth, carving a loom shuttle from cow bone, and making a fur hat from an otter pelt (complete with hand made brass buckle), and countless other skills and pieces of knowledge.
