Thanks for sharing this video. I havr just started a new job working at St Johns Co-Cathedral in Valletta Malta 🇲🇹 as a marble restorer. I am practicing hours after hours this exact technique tought by my dad who also have been working there for almost 30+ Years now as a restorer. Hoping i will continue up on his steps to preserve and restore the amazing treasure we have in the hearth of Malta ! I will do my best to improve every day. Thanks again for sharing.

Salve, may I assume these are not complete? Please show how to finish (polish?) A letter without destroying the sharpness if the lettering. Grazie mille.

I enjoyed this video very much, and found it very inspiring. Beautiful work? I am rather elderly, and am jumping in with feet, to this world of letter cutting in stone, and am super excited. I have worked in many of the trades, and activities, knowing this be the last, and most enjoyable. Was the chisel that you were using for roughing out, more so, what could be designated a granite chisel. I ask, because we are warned so much about knocking off the corner of our tungsten carbide tipped chisel. I see a lot of letter carver’s on KZfaq, switching their chisel mid progression of a letter. Could you please comment on this?

We change chisels during carving because they go blunt. To save time I have more ready to go

Hello. First thank you for taking the time to show us. And then I have a question: When you switched tools is it because the graver has a different grind to achieve a different cut? Or why did you switch? The two looked very similar.

I swap chisels so I would not have to sharpen during filming

@@wadebednarick220 Michelangelo worked with marble and would have used different chisels. No tungsten tips in those days. He would have a lot of chisels indeed and his apprentice would sharpen. I like working with chisels from Europe. Made in France. You can buy them online. Make sure to order marble and not granite

How many months does it takes to become good?

@mikeviaene2005 2 жыл бұрын

Depends on how committed you are

@christiancampbell466 2 жыл бұрын

How many hours per month will you apply yourself? Months don't matter… only hours of hands-on practice matter. Popular wisdom says mastering anything takes about 10,000 hours. A 40-hour per week full-time job is 2000 hours/year. Are you "good" at a job after five years? I've gotten good at a few things & my personal experience accords with the 10,000 hour rule of thumb. Lay onlookers start becoming interested or impressed after 1000 or 2000 hours, _i.e._ one year at half or full time, and I've become pleased with my own output after about 5000-7000 hours.
