I recently started playing with rosette carving, I've done 3, so far. The first one was a bit rough but came out surprisingly well. The second one was far better, the third went into an actual soundboard and will someday be in my first lute. The thing that amazes me is that while I used scalpel blades and a magnifier, the old masters did these things with neither of those. How on earth did they pull this off so well? Must have had GOOD eyes, something I do not. It takes a LONG time to do these things, the level of detail is amazing. But it's also one of the most satisfying things one can do. Just prepare to take a long time to get things done. All in all, it's a very relaxing thing to do. Nice work, I can tell this isn't your first time if it only took you 6 hours to do.

Whoah! As amazing as that was to watch I can’t see it is something I’ll ever have the patience or skill needed to attempt, especially now that I’m at ‘that age’ where my reading distance vision is starting to deteriorate! Maybe I should get myself some of those jeweller’s magnifying headsets, but the wife would never stop taking the Micky out of me for wearing it (ha, ha!)

For chisels and knives that small look for Japanese block print carving tools. They regularly work on a scale that makes that miniaturized rosette look large in comparison. Even their knives are finer than scalpel blades. An easier way to make those today would be to use a laser cutter to cut out the openings so you only have to do the carving portions. Using a micro-burr would also be an easier & safer way to remove the bulk of the material.

Hey. Nice video. Very informative. Would you mind telling me where you got that black hobby knife with the brass ferrule? I've seen so many luthiers who use it and can't find it anywhere. Thanks!

Not sure you ever got an answer- I believe that’s from Lee valley tools- if they don’t exist in bricks & mortar where you are, you can find Lee Valley Tools online- they have sort of staked out the opposite end of the tool market from a Harbor Freight or a Princess Auto. They call it the Veritas Carver’s Knife. About $45 Canuckistan Kopeks when they actually have them in stock. Last I checked Lee Valley was out of stock on those system wide, and not expecting to see any more until January, so I’m pretty sure that, just like the lower end tool suppliers, most of Lee Valley’s products come from suppliers in Asia who are tangled up in the global supply chain snafu that seems to be affecting everything these days.

Superb. However, I question whether your skills might best be employed on "luthiery". Laser engravers (which take all the skill out of this fine craft, and suck the life out of art) simplify the "pretty" aspect. I love your craftsmanship. Possibly my favorite KZfaq channel.i love your art, and respect

Continued... I pressed the wrong button... and respect your passion, but I think mechanized sculpturing rips the heart out of what you achieve here. At least your mastery of luthiery is yet to be matched by computer. Love your videos. Top notch.
