"my name is Husain Abdul Alim and I am here to tell you all about wood carving. So we are doing stains, putty and finishes. Putty is an important part; this is a wood putty, it is a nice wood putty because it just comes right out nice and firm. And these little debits like that I got to fill in. I still got to take more out of that but I got to fill in there and it is going to look like a sore on somebody's face so that is a divot line there. It has to be filled in and then we will go back a little later. Got some lines in here that have to be filled in. A little bit up in here of putty. I like this because it is nice and firm and you can stain right on top of it. That is good. We got another kind of putty, it is a little looser; Elmer's wood putty. It takes a little bit more for it to set up and dry, Elmer's. So you really can't stain on this right away, you are going to have to wait a couple of hours before it dries. Another one needs a little bit of, where the weather has split this one, it needs a little bit of putty. Okay, that looks good."
