Great video, can't wait to get some wood out and start it. Thanks so much for posting!

I've always found that having a finished pic of what I'm supposed to be creating helps enormously in the process, being able to jump back and forth in my visualization. Would be very easy to add that at the beginning of the video. Thanks.

just completed one, been carving for a few months and I really appreciate your clear instructions and style. TYVM !

Excellent video! At 64 years old I think I have a new hobby! I just watched the video to get an idea of what needs to be done now to get my knife and block of wood out and give it a go!

Thank you very much for your time it was a pleasure watching.

Nice tutorial, I really like your simple methodical approach and teaching style. Size perspective is always tough on video, so talking through the size of wood you started with would be helpful in future videos. Great job.

Enjoyed the tutorial, it would help to state the size of the wood, look forward to the same , and other characters.Cheers, Billy H UK land. 😋

Thank you so much for this video. You are a patient instructor, i appreciate your teaching style

I think it would help if you paint a square or circle on your carving table and if your hands and carving get out of that area…we can’t see what you’re doing.

Great video but the video was hard to watch, while your explaining details you kept going out of camera range, also brightness needs turned down. And just a little more info on wood size you use. Not trying to knock vid, I did learn a lot, enjoyed watching and learning. 👍 thumbs up from me.

Great video and instructions my great grandson did great job on first carving no help from Gramp.Keep up the great job . God bless.

Wow! This is an incredible resource. Thank you so much. Your pace and camera angles are perfect for follow along carving. I’m so glad to have found your channel.

glad i found your channel. love the teaching style. i’ve been whittling about a year and have watched a lot of videos. Great!!

The hardest thing that I find in carving is getting decent wood, be it bass or pine , any way keep the hill billys coming please. Cheers, Billy H. Uk land.😷

Thank you, that was very clear, I’m new to this and will be trying my first carving today.

What a great tutorial. Very helpful. Thank you. I wish you did more

I have some power carving equipment dremals .Waiting on Christmas for my Flexcraft knives.I really like your little gnomes and hillbilly people. Jims woodshop.

New to whittling, so thank you for this:)

Great video thank you!!!!

We know what you look like from the "intro", so the "insert" of you after the intro is nothing more than distracting Thank you for the tutorial.

Thank you for making this video. You explain very well in detail. Looking forward to many more! Thanks,

You did a very good job of explaining what you were doing all the time, I enjoyed watching you carve!

This is so cute. Thanks for the patience and step by step working. From Texas I just found you and subscribed today.

Nice job I got end result thanks .

Thank you for explaining your work so simple. I'm new and so far I've made plenty of "mistakes" so I'm getting there

New subscriber 😀 Really enjoyed the technique of your presentation. Nice and slow, with great explanation! I just started carving almost 2 months ago, and have watched so many tutorials by some wonderful carvers. But, for me, they all go to fast. Thank you! You’re doing great for being new to KZfaq, and sure do hope that you will continue to put out content!

Great video. What knife are you using and or recommend. Thanks. Scott

Great video ! I learned a lot. Would like to see more videos from you. Thank You !!

Awesome ,, Learned a lot, loved the way you explain simple things,, Thanks,, RayD

It would be so much better if you kept what you are carving in the centre of the screen because people starting to carve cannot see what you are doing thanks

Nice teaching technique. Fairly new carver, so it always helps to know why you’re doing the cuts. My main problem so far is thinking ahead and thinking in 3D. You could keep the carving in frame a little more. Kept drifting out of sight toward the bottom. Looking forward to more instruction.

Great teacher you make it fun thank you

Really like you patience in teaching. First time I have seen you. But I have subscribed.

PIP is kinda in the way of the carving.

good work learned a lot.

Thanks for this video. I've done three 'billies so far. A little better each time. BTW, some KZfaq teachers put a piece of tape on the table to remind them where the center of the camera view is.

great carvering.

Wow love it

hello,I gave you 1000sub, congratulations and best regards

Hopes you also carve Mountain Folks, such as women folk and chillen folk (children folks)

I like your work but the hillbilly you didn’t let us know what size would we need and where are the measurements should be for like the head and the arms the chin

Look more like gnomes.

Nice, thanks !

This is a great video. I love your teaching style. I am a new subscriber and look forward to learning more from you. Just one comment, you are often out of frame when working on the bottom of the piece. Maybe just move your hands up or reposition your camera. Thank you sir. Excellent

Nice work.

Hello ....... Great job on that hillbilly. We don't have em in the Netherlands.B.T.W., what is your name? I started 3 month's ago, and learn every day. Beautiful video gear you have. Greetings from Holland.

Is that a old Ron Wells knife ?

What kind of knife are you using? I like the wide blade. The video was great.

Hi there3 just subscribed! I like you’re idolige. Could you do one on ho to tell if your knife is sharp enough and the on stropping.

Good video but most of it is shown while you carve is hid way to low can't see it .

牛逼啊

great video.....did you start with 1" x 1" x 3" long wood?

What carving knife do you recommend?

thank you

Hi I have trouble with my measurements, and I noticed that not many carvers give you the measurements I wonder if they could give measurements of the line’s you put on the wood thank you

Hi! What kind of wood are you using in this video? Thanks!

Where can I find your other videos?

No measurements
