Stone carving is actually not as difficult as many people think! While they used to be the exclusive domain of imperial scribes and the sages who read the stars, now they're as accesible to you and I.
Just like drawing, there are just a few simple processes before we are able to carve out a simple design on stone!
You don't need too much strength either, its more of precision rather than brute force!
