If you are an expert pumpkin carver, which tools do you use please?

[Musthurry]

I have six large pumpkins to carve this year; three for us and three for a friend. Looking for some tools to speed up the process and to help me make accurate cuts. Does anyone have any tips or recommendations please?

Once carved it can last a few days. I have tried rubbing vaseline over cut edges. Dont know if it helps or not. Electric tealights are good too. Sometimes you can get large ones at Halloween

Absolute game changer - clear out the inside with an electric hand mixer. Done in about ten seconds.

Lino cutting tools...you can get a basic set on Amazon for £3.95 or a larger set for £7.95.

Whoo hoo , yet more great tips here thank you!

• lino cutting tools,
• electric hand mixer,
• rubbing flour over pin pricks
• fine sharp knife as wel as drill

Amazing! Thank you all!
