Please Note: The direct links given for the Marketplace gourd art will work if you are using the old version of Facebook, but might now work if you did the upgrade Facebook has been pushing out in the last few weeks. We have sent Facebook multiple texts to try to get the problem fixed but so far there seems to be no way to offer a direct link to an individual post, just a link to the Marketplace Group. Most people feel this is fine since it is fairly easy to find the art pieces we feature here from the main page of the Gourd Art Marketplace.

Letters from Customers

"Thanks for my pro carver. It is just the best. Quiet, nice to hold, amazing to carve with. You guys are amazing." - Lilly Flaman

***************************

"OHMIGOSH! I just unboxed my new Pro Carver II and even though it’s late, I decided to give it a 5 minute test run.
Let me say, I was happy when I went from a Dremel to the Proxxon. But there is a night and day difference with the Pro Carver! The hand piece fits my hand so much better, it’s lighter and I can barely feel the vibration!! After carving a couple hours with the Proxxon, my hand ends up tingling afterwards. I don’t anticipate that happening with the ProCarver based on what I just felt. Halllelujah! My hand, joints and titanium shoulder are going to be sooo happy!
I can’t wait to wake up tomorrow and start carving!" - Lori Smith

***************************

"Oh my goodness!  
I have been using your products for a few months now. I was using Filipoint burrs with a Dremel. The burrs would burn, and then lose the diamond coating very quickly. THEN I ordered the Gourdmaster Pro Carver II and it came with a couple of new Filipoint burrs. AND imagine my surprise when not only does my hand not hurt any more from the Dremel tool, but the Filipoint burrs have not burned out! I am happy, happy, happy. Thanks so much!!" - Liz Silva
