Doug, Doug, Doug... you out did yourself young man. I love that Sophie was part of this as well. I'm ever indebted to you for getting me started in carving and I look forward to more of your videos. This video made me smile like a little gleeful six-year-old… Thank you

EXCELLENT! "BEST SHORT FILM" CANNES FILM FESTIVAL !

I like how he kept passing other folks on the river. 😁

Wow!!!!! 😀🤩 This really makes my heart happy Doug! You are a very special teacher... “Those who bring sunshine into the lives of others cannot keep it from themselves.” I pray the sun is shining on you and your family too! You have brought so much light to us all! ♥️

We need more people in this tired old world like you Doug, your skills and imagination are boundless!!!

I think I love these the most of all the amazing videos you post Doug. You and Sophie are amazing. Best way ever to spend Sunday morning with a mug of coffee, watching a video like this. Just makes you smile all day long! Awesome job and now we know who delivers the coffee for the Carving and Coffee vids. Keep them coming my friend, it makes the world a better place!

Your creative imagination always brings the smiles :) Thank you Doug !

Amazing work Mr. Linker!

The cheering as our intrepid hero returns home safely with the supplies was a great touch! Had to watch the journey down river 3 times it was so good! Top work, Doug. 👏👏👏

Very interesting and amazing Doug , who you can make something different and turn it around to a story.plus you enjoy yourself and relax in put it together as a story from the very first cut of wood plus having your wife in the post making extra items for the story, you had me fooled in what you was making and how you did turn it around to a little cheeky story. I highly recommend this channel to anyone who likes working with wood

You are so AWESOME Doug. You have no idea how much I enjoy your videos. Your talents are a gift. Thank you.

I wish I could give this a thousand likes. I love the boat related carvings a lot. I loved that last one you did. I watch it sometimes when I just want to relax.

The carving made me watch with interest, the launching of the boat made me chuckle, then the appearance of the rest of the community, including the igloo and other boaters, made me laugh. Educational and entertaining. Love your work, all around. Thanks, Doug!

Incredible. I can't even imagine how much time you spent making the video, not to mention just the carving. Thank you so much for sharing your time and talent.

What can I say......you did it again!! Great video 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 And I loved that Sophie was a part of it!! You two together are pretty darn crafty!!! Keep up the creativity!!! Your truly blessed!!! Have a great day and be blessed 😊

Who needs Hollywood? Really, who needs Hollywood. Your films are a treasure. Thanks. Again....

Great adventure! I had to share!

You have a great imagination, and skills to match as does your wife. Thanks for the film.

You are amazing! I absolutely love your videos! Thank you so much for showing the patience and skills of woodcarving!

Fantastic Doug !! Many thanks for sharing your wonderful skills 👍

You make National Film Board quality films, Doug. Pretty impressive, and so entertaining. Thank You! 👍🙂🚣🏾‍♂️

Best video I've seen in a long while! Your talent and creativity are top notch.

Your sense of humor and whimsy is delightful to watch in this video Doug. REALLY well done! I was feeling a bit down this evening, due to family problems, your little project brought the joy of life back to the forefront. Thank you.

What a hoot !!! You must have had a lot of fun doing this one Doug. You've got a great imagination and we get to benefit from it. Thanks for entertaining us once again.

Now that was a great video. It was very entertaining and fun to watch. I know you put a ton of work into that and it shows. Great carve. Doug you have a huge imagination and to put all down like that is a talent. Thank you very much for sharing it. Great way to start this Sunday morning off. Very glad that the supplies arrived on time.

Doug love your videos but this is my favourite of all absolutely loved it great work mate

Doug, your cravings are great and your film directing is rapidly catching up. Glad Sophie got credit for her work. Tnx's to you both.

That was awesome!

Absolutely love it! Love your imagination and how you incorporated all your characters! Lol. Another home run video Doug! Thank you!

Doug I love it,your having waaaaaaaaay to much fun! Thanks for sharing

What did I just watch? ... Thanks for taking us viewers along on this journey! ... Very entertaining short film! ... =)

Wow Doug that was awesome. I think I could actually manage the boat. Love the video at the end.

Thank you for brining us such a great adventure. Your imagination has come to life. Thanks for taking the time to share such a great carving and video.

I’ve never commented on a video before, but that sir, was BRILLIANT!!!

Great work and great video. Him floating past the all his buddies down the stream was an excellent touch.

WOW! What a complete tale. This one is a masterpiece.

Brilliant Doug! The gnome did a fine job steering, loved that he arrived to cheering friends, he certainly saved the day!

OMG that was amazing, and so beautiful thank you so much keep it up.😃

What a great way to start a week ... watching this supply run brought smiles, more than a few laughs, and caught myself about to join in the "He's a jolly good fellow." If you're going to continue this sort of nonsense throughout 2020, I might have to retire so I don't miss one minute of it ...

We all love when a loved ones returns home. Great job Doug

Doug Doug, this was by far one of the coolest carving vids you've done. The short film at the end was so cool that he looked so realistic. Then the cannoe he past, and more and more characters appearing the all the people waiting on supply's. It was way more than I expected. You put a lot of thought and work into this one. Bravo.

Holy schnikies I hope you had as much fun doing as I did watching. Thank you.

Flippin' heck.. Doug, that's so sweet. I really like the cargo on the gnome's boat. Brilliantly carved.. great to see that you took the video outdoors, too. A really nice film!

That was cool....

"Leaf" Erikson resupplying his people in the Doug world. I think Leif would give you a nod.

Lost for words. Just absolutely amazing. Made our day. Cheers from George and Jane in the UK..👍👫 🛶🏞

That was very cute and fun! It was so easy to visualize they were living. I called my wife in from the kitchen, I chuckled while she giggled! My parents will be coming to visit shortly, I'm sure they'll do the same when they see it! Thanks for making our day! UPDATE-My parents loved it!

You’re too creative, Doug! Great video, inspiring work. Thank you for motivating me to kept on carving!!!

I absolutely loved this video... no, it’s more of a mini movie! Fantastic job! And your gnome turned out amazing.

Mad, totally awesome vid, as usual Doug. love it. Your little movies are brilliant, brimming with imagination, and quality, good clean, wholesome, fun. You are of course, totally mad, as indeed all the best people in the world are. Keep up the excellent work. God bless you and yours.

What a fantastic video. Up there with one of my favourite KZfaq video’s. Thank you Doug 👍

A magnificently touching little story. The cheering at the end was very wonderful. You have the gift and are indeed a Jolly Good Fellow.

Outstanding !

Really cool filming at the end. Like we were in the boat with him.😁👍✔🔔🇨🇦🖐 Now get all healed and go camping with Joe, he misses the trips with you.👍

Thank you Mr Doug .

Wow Dude, looks like a brand new bench. And some dang nice work. Don't know how you do it all Doug w/o jam's I would have to have some music. You are the Man Doug. I Wish you held workshops. Doug, the few minutes of this video are like a Disney film, I Love man, I sent it to my Daughter and Grand- Daughter to watch. Man oh Man, I just got to say, Thanks! that was such a cool surprise on A Sunday morning. Wow Doug, just WOW ! ! ! ! !

Now that was an adventure!!

Doug's version of Paddle to the Sea. Nice job. Interesting and enjoyable!👍

Doug, at first I was shouting at the monitor, "Geez man, don't put that carving in the creek"! But then when I saw you had more of your carvings on the shore, egging him on, and the big group at the end cheering, well, that just made my day! Many smiles my friend!

Very nice Doug. Great imagination and carving is top notch.

I'm going to be very honest. When I first started watching I was bummed because you was not narrating the carving. I love listening to you as you carve. Then you went and put him on his adventure back home with his supplies and blew my mind with his adventure. Adding his different friends on his trip home got me again. I absolutely loved the whole experience just watching. Thank you for sharing your talent and imagination with all of us.

Fastastic‼️‼️‼️‼️. 👏👏👏👏👏. Absolutely a fun journey to watch. Thank you

OMG how great was that, even made me cry. Gonna watch it again now 👍

In a time when there is so much uncertainty in the world, you have given us a means of escape for a little while and something to smile and chuckle about. From the bottom of our hearts...Thank you

Fantastic work doug loved the story and what a imagination keep the video's going thank you

As always, you make whittling and carving so much fun! And that’s the key of a perfect hobby. Thank you for your videos Doug.

Thanx Doug! It’s so......Lord of the Ringsy🥰 I’m going to play it on the big tv screen to show family, it’s that good ❣️

Oh my gosh Doug, yet another incredibly CUTE, creative & just awesome example of your *many* talents! Wow, really loved this one, you are a true 'R-Teest'. 🔪🎨 🎬 If not for you, an entire tiny village would go hungry! lol

Wow, the tools and equipment you have are only surpassed by your own talent!! What a cute and creative project!! That was awesome!!! Great to watch!

I hope he came home safely with his groceries after his adventurous journey - what a hero 😃

All i can picture is some little kid sitting with their parents and this boat goes by and just lights up their world.

Doug, you've always had a great channel, but you're quickly evolving into a international treasure. I absolutely love watching your creations unfold as you carve. Sometimes indoors, sometimes outdoors with a small fire and coffee (and Finn). Sometimes narrated, and sometimes just the sounds of chips being made. But they're all wonderful, unique, and relaxing. Thank you.

Incredibly beautiful and such an enjoyable clip. The memorable pea-green boat. Thanks Doug!

Should do a carving and really let it go like paddle to the sea. Paint it bright colors and burn your info on to it. Tell people if they find it to email what's the location and then release it again and see where it goes? Cheers

Doug I have to come back to this video every so often and share it with people. I do it so frequently that as I started to post this I looked and saw a post I left a year ago. I found this to be one of the most amazing project you have ever put up. Then today I saw the Gnome Home and realized there is no limit to your creativity and talent. Your posts with Sophie are a great reminder of how families should create together. Keep it going you are all an inspiration.

Epic,fantastic so good . Quality Tha amount of time and effort involved? Excellent Made me feel so good . Thank you very much Regards Gareth Wiltshire UK. Gratitude.

I just loved that, especially the ending when he meets up with his friends. Great ending. Bruce from the city of Orange in Orange county California.

Hi Doug, A brilliant piece of carving. The video at the end is just fantastic. Cheers, Huw

Its not just your talent with carving tools that make your videos great. Its the whole package-the concept-the carving-the filming and the presentation. Sometimes there is even a back story. What a great job. Thanks for sharing all of that with us.

always like when you do a story behind them. Great job!

Now that's a maiden voyage!

Now you can add writer, producer & movie director to your bio. This was outstanding 👌

Oh my! I keep watching it to count how many of your 'friends' I can count during the gnomes' travel. One of the best videos I've seen. Can't wait to see how you out do this one.

Doug, you have an amazingly whimsical imagination, thank you for sharing this wonderful gift that you have!

This was spectacular Doug! I just showed it to a non-carving friend and she was blown away. You are a very creative guy. Must have taken some work to get the supporting cast to the set .Thanks for sharing. True North Carver

This is SO COOL! Extremely well done. All the little guys got to go play outside! Awesome adventure. Thanks man! And a Jimmy pick too!

This was my absolute favorite video. I love watching you create and the boat ride with all the others out there put it over the top! Thank you for creating these videos.

I wish I could describe the joy you put into my heart as I watched this video. It made me want to go out and grab some toy boats. I felt like a kid again. You have an incredible imagination and God given talents! You obviously spent a great deal of time and effort on this beautiful video. I love the pea green boat! Thank you from the bottom of my heart for sharing with us. God bless.

Absolutely great video to start my day.

You’ve got such a talent Doug love you’ve carvings

Better and better every time! Great adventure Doug! Just when i thought it was just one character, you pulled out all the stops. Thanks for sharing! 👍👍👍

You are my Palme d'Or in the Little People Festival. Congratulations also for the script, the actors, the sets, the costumes, the accessories. . . Long live this cinema. Amitiés de France

Too much fun. Great carving and adventure ;-)

This is next level, you're absolutely brilliant.

Artistry and Imagination At It's Finest!❤ Thank You Doug For Giving So Many People A Smile Today !!

Thank You, Sir Doug! What a Masterpiece! You deserve the Oscar for sure! Wish you would continue with a film series of these cuties...it sure brings back David the Gnome days! Ya'll are makin' us laugh and cry at the same time...Love your work!

i'm a huge fan of your products, but you don't let me buy from you. I would loveeee to have one of those little pieces you make. I love them.

OMGOSH Doug!! That was too flipping cute!!!

Doug your the wonderful wizard of woodcarving. This is a movie in the making📹🎞 so much energy & life embodies each of your little people. You did an excellent job with the cinematography. The scenery speaks of anticipation & the rollicking Irish jig is perfection🍀 Thank you for being such a creative & wild spirit! So fortunate we all get to share your awesomeness🧚🏼‍♂️ Also love to your family for their support💞

Blown away by this! I could not stop smiling the whole way down the river! My favorite childhood stories are Stewart Little and The Borrowers. You have to give this little guy and name and send him on more adventures! I am teaching a few young ladies how to carve and I've told them all to check out your videos. They are going to flip over this. What a huge labor of love. Thank you!
