3G Woodcarver

3G Woodcarver Hello I am Andrew S. Benner from McClure, PA and I am a third generation wood carver. The name 3G Woodcarving stands for 3rd Generation. Enjoy and thanks

Benner, a 3rd Generation wood carver from McClure, Pennsylvania. All of the products that I make are hand made. My great grandfather, Elder E. Weader, started woodcarving after he retired from 42 years of being a school teacher. His passion and hobby has passed down through the generations. Elder was asked when he was retiring if he had a hobby. At the time, he did not have any hobbies; but by cha

nce he became aware of an opening at a woodcarving class. He was skeptical at first, but after he attended the first class, he realized how enjoyable woodcarving can be; and "the rest is history". My grandfather Edwin L. Weader has also done very detailed wood carvings. I picked up the "knife" in May of 2016. The tools that I am using hold a special place in my heart because they are Elder's tools that he used. It helps me to remember my great grandfather. I am very thankful for the time that I had with him. I have many other family members that have done different types of wood working but I have a love for wood carving (planning, imagining, shaping and finishing). It is a relaxing hobby. Hope everyone enjoys them as much as I enjoy doing them. This is also helping keep not only the family tradition alive but the memories alive as well.

Come out and see me at Dill's Tavern in Dillsburg, PA Dec. 13 & 14th. This is my only event this year and there is limited inventory.

As you're considering holiday gifts this season, be sure to mark your calendars so you can join us at the 2024 Christkindlmarkt at Dills Tavern ! December 13th and 14th, join us for two days of Christmas cheer, ambience, shopping, food, children's activities, music and so much more across the tavern's beautiful historic grounds.

This event is sure to propel you into the Christmas spirit and will give you the opportunity to find unique, one-of-a-kind gifts!

This event has consistently drawn over 6000 shoppers for the past several years. And last year we enjoyed over 90 vendors and artisans. (Thank you to PennWaste for sponsoring a trash receptacle). We anticipate another successful event for 2024 and hope you will be a part of it with us. Consider shopping small this holiday season and supporting some of the amazing vendors we will have with us.

If I need to ship, it will be additional, $5 east of the Mississippi, and $10 west of the Mississippi. International will have to figure that one out, may have to drop it off with Santa for his delivery route.

When your daughter requests to make a 🎅 ornament for her that she can paint 🎨, a new tradition is born. I believe we will do this every year now. She did the undercoat of the colors this year and I did the finishing touches. She also wanted to do one for her teacher. Me paying attention to detail, Amelia's has been customized to match her two colors of eyes.
