    pine is carveable, but soft. plan whatever you want it to be carefully. Make sure no part is too narrow, or it will break.

    Well, technically, pine isn't hardwood. But then again, balsa technically IS hardwood, so I guess that really means nothing.

    charredacacia is probably right, you can carve it but be careful.
