David Young started woodcarving in 2019 after stumbling on a whittling video by Doug Linker on YouTube. He developed and refined his skills through reading books and magazines, watching videos and a lot of practice. As a professional educator with over 20 years of experience as a teacher and instructional designer, David soon turned his passion for carving into an opportunity to teach others. He has become a regular contributor to Woodcarving Illustrated magazine and has published numerous videos on YouTube for complete beginner woodcarvers.

Jaeheon Yun is a puzzle designer based in South Korea. He graduated from Seowon University with a degree in Industrial Design in 2004; then, just before his first child was born in 2011, he bought a scroll saw and began making wooden toys. He now adapts the idea of the classic jigsaw puzzle into cute and stylized animal pieces that interact with each other to create larger animal “family” puzzles. Jaeheon often designs his animal puzzle pieces after forms found in Japanese toys. His son, Jimin, often “tests” out his puzzles in Jaeheon’s two-room workshop, and Jaeheon hopes to teach him the scroll saw someday. Jaeheon’s small business, called Namunolie (a combination of two Korean words meaning “tree” and “play”), can be found on

Raised in Abraham Lincoln's hometown of Springfield, Illinois, Denny Rogers has crafted numerous limited-edition bronze sculptures of animal, religious, and presidential subjects in cooperation with The White House and Presidential archives. His life-size bronze statue of an American Bald Eagle in dramatic flight, Winged Magnificence, was chosen by President Ronald Reagan for his second inaugural and by Vice President Bush's committee for the Texas Sesquicentennial. Additionally, Denny has done graphic design/illustration work for singer/ songwriter Willie Nelson. His woodcarvings have been featured in national woodcarving and art publications, and his animal physiology illustrated reference books have been used by woodcarvers around the world to secure contracts, win blue ribbons, best of show, state, national, and world championships, and earn induction into the White House permanent collection and other prestigious world collections.
