Practice carving can be done with vegetables such as a carrot or potato!
Rev. Amata says “I have 2 links that I’ll share for materials that can be purchased for the hanko carving .https://www.dickblick.com/items/sculpture-house-point-chisel-with-14-small-tip-small-tip/https://www.asianbrushpainter.com/collections/sealstones/products/kunlun-translucent-seal-stone The first link is for the type of chisel to use and the second link is where a stone can be purchased for carving. The stone from this link is the cheapest, but individuals can buy whichever they like best, but I would advise practicing before purchasing an expensive stone.
