Doug, we have watched you step up your game. The great thing is, everyone can step up with you. I can’t wait to have some time here to really carve along with you. Please don’t ever delete your old videos

You are a talented carver, but your true gift is teaching/explaining. The way you break each carving down into simple steps makes it doable and understandable for beginners like me. Thank you.

Doug, you and your little steel magic wand continue to amaze me. With your little almost imperceptible cuts, you transform these little pieces of wood into wonderful creations. Thanks so much for doing these.

Thanks Doug for all you do to help out other carvers. I've been at this many years now and never a day goes by when I don't learn something new. I love your enthusiasm for our wonderful hobby! 🙂

Doug, I gave one of my little gnome men to a friend. She took him to the hospital for a hip surgery, and she's had so much fun with him. Talking with Dr.'s and nurses about him. So, thank you Doug for inspiring me and helping bring a smile to someone's day.

I absolutely love these Doug! I am recovering from carpal tunnel surgery but I can’t wait to get back to carving and doing a bunch of these guys . Hope you and family are well

Doug: You are masterful in your handling of a knife blade. Where others tend to use small gouges or tiny blades for such small figure details, you masterfully carve the finest detail with your inch and a half or inch and a quarter, or whatever blade length this particular knife is. No detail is too much of a challenge for you. I just love to watch your consumate knife skill as you create such wondefully detailed "tiny figures!" Please keep bringin 'em!!! Well done!

@glennnielsen2425 7 ай бұрын

Miraculous how much detail you get into such a small piece! And your calm demeanor as you teach is great . I have only ever watched a couple KZfaq videos from start to finish without hitting the fast forward button! I just watched two of your hr long videos in completion. Great job

Fantastic again Doug, my house has been over run by little hillbillies and now I have someone to keep them in check! Loving what you're doing, I was starting to get frustrated, trying to progress to quickly, I'm following along this series, doing multiple carvings of the same thing (I've 30+ hillbillies) I can see my progression, cleaner cuts, speed picking up and just plain having fun with these little guys.

Awesome Doug ! Watching your video on the 1X1 Gnomes was my first attempt at carving and I made at least a dozen of them. This 1X1 carving of the little man is going to be even more fun and I'm sure I will fill my living room with chips again. Love it! Thanks for sharing your talent and this fun hobby.
