Carving A Valentine Gnome From Wood DIY Whittling For Beginners
This looks like your typical made in china set you can find easily on Temu etc. What do you think of this quality? Sharp? Hold the edge? That tool roll looks nice. I started with a set like this and have begun upgrading to Flexcut, some Beavercraft, and I have a Helvee (sp?). I’m not experienced enough to really tell the difference. No idea how you use some of those tools. Most of the various tools I have work as long as you strop frequently….I can definitely feel the difference in a newly stropped tool.
Thanks for your question. Yes, I'm sure these tools were made in China and some of them don't seem to be very useful for the type of carving that I do. Although the factory edge was sharp, some of the tools still had a burr on the edge that needed to be removed and one tool did have a chip in the edge. The steel is OK but does not hold an edge as good as BeaverCraft or Flexcut. The tool roll is actually pretty nice.
My wife loves your angels. Thanks for sharing.
My pleasure, I'm happy to hear that!
What a fun whittle. Thank you for sharing CJ.
Glad you liked it! Thanks for your comment!
Lovely creatures. I am trying them now. Given my age and the camera angles, some steps represented a challenge for me; but I got it. Great tutorial. Grateful to you as always.
Thanks very much! I’m happy to hear that you enjoyed the tutorial.Happy carving!
Very creative Cousin Jack! I love these Frankenstein Gnomes!
Thanks Stephen, much appreciated Cousin!
Neat idea for a carve! I thought it was like a frankengnome, but was confused why the nose wasn't the same color...it's a Frankenstein hat! Jolly good! Thanks for the content cousin Jack!
You got it. It's a gnome dressed for Halloween with his Frankenstein Gnome.
Cute idea
Thanks very much Rob!👍
Cool bolts! I like the finishing nail! Thanks Cousin!
Hi Brandon! I really think the nail would look great! Just haven’t tried it yet.
Do you have a video on antiquing a carving?
Hi Phil! Yes, I use a home made antiquing medium I learned from Chris Hammack - Here's the video - ua-cam.com/video/KQGPYuOkHIE/v-deo.htmlsi=s_9iEkl5TsNcbAsI
Nice I'm looking forward to giving them a try!! My better half will love them. She's a halloween nut. Thanks for a great video and your time and talent. Jeff
Thanks Jeff! Have fun with it. Give a bunch to your wife.
Great idea!! Well it kept YOU busy for awhile thinking , designing n whittling it!!
Hi Laurie! Yes, I do keep busy. Woodcarving is a hobby and will always come after my family commitments and my full time job that pays the bills.👍
Great tutorial, thanks CJ🙏❤️ looking forward to trying one of these guys in the near future.
Hi Dal! Have fun with it! I’d love to see a picture of your version!
Thanks great job
Hi Laurie! Thanks very much for!
Very cute
Thanks Mark!
Love him Jack .. I bet she is going to be a winner
Thank you Gene, I really appreciate that!
what kind of knife are you carving with?
Hi Chris! That's my home-made knife. I made it from a vintage (and damaged) straight razor. It's one of my favorite tools!
@@whittling your vids are great to watch and follow to, specially for a newer carver like me. looking forward to more.
@@Kris__88 Thanks very much! I just posted a new tutorial today and I have a second channel called Wood Carving Weekly with lots of resources that you might want to check out.
@@whittling no kidding that's you? I just found that channel a couple weeks ago and have been binge watching all episodes lol that's how I found out about Flexcuts new knives, waiting on a set now. Very good info over there!
@@Kris__88 Yep, that's me. Thanks for watching, I'm happy to hear that the information has been helpful for you!
You know what is funny? I was just watching this thinking how that box cutter blade was good for nothing but getting in the way😂. Then 10 seconds later you changed to your Helvie! I get that it’s an option, but I haven’t used one that I would pick up again except for opening a package. The shape of the blade has meaning!
Hey Tommie! I like that the razor blade is very thin and it has a lot of flex to it because of how thin it is. It has its limitations though. We always need more knives right?🤣
I like carving with you
Thanks Joanne, I'm very happy to hear that!
Thanks for the video!!
My pleasure Laurie! I'm glad you enjoyed it. Happy carving!
Reverse
Hi Phillip! Thanks for sharing your preference! Happy carving!
Congratulations Jack 🎉
Thanks Matt!👍
👏👏👏👏👏
Thanks so much Tommie! It all started with that first subscriber which would be you!!!❤️
Great Work Cousin!
Thanks very much Johnny!
Hope you have a good group of members! I know you work hard but I do not understand the need for a club. Bye.
Thanks very much! It’s not so much of a need, it’s an opportunity to offer some perks to folks that have an interest.
Congrats on the 7K, love your tutorials.
Thanks very much Dragon!
Congrats, Dad!!! 👏👏👏👏❤
Thank you Jordan!❤️
That’s really cute
Thanks very much Bear!
New to your site, great tutorial, easy to follow with easy to see video (unlike some others where the hands block most steps).
Thanks very much Dragon! I’m happy to hear that you’re enjoying the channel. Happy carving!
Nice Jack
Thanks Bear!
keep up the good work
Thanks very much Nixon!
Nice 'whittle wizard'! Well narrated tutorial, thanks Cousin!
My pleasure Cousin, thanks for watching and thanks for your comment!
Fun little wizard - very creative design!
Thanks very much Stephen!
Good job Cuz!
Thanks! Much appreciated Cousin!
very good job!😊👍
Thanks very much!
Another great tutorial. Thanks much!!
Thanks Sall, I appreciate your support!
Why did you make your coat so long and eliminate most of the pant leg? You have a drawing and one that you carved to follow, why not follow them?
Hi Joe! Thanks for your question. I often decide to modify my original plan while carving. The reason varies due to wood grain direction, how I like the look, or in some cases I think about making the carving easier for a beginner carver. The drawing is just a conceptual idea not a pattern. Happy carving!
Love this
Thank you Gene!
Very cool, nicely done sir 👍👍👍
Thanks Mark I really appreciate that! Happy Carving!👍
That's a cool trick, I like how you 'gouged' the eyes, and it wasn't gross! Thanks for the tutorial cousin Jack!
My pleasure Cousin, thanks for watching!
I must say I was not seeing how the hand in the pocket with the shirt like that was going to work at first, but wow, it really came together after you rounded it all out! Quite a natural look for a banana man!
Thanks very much Brandon! I really appreciate your comment, happy carving!
Do you need to wear a mask when cutting this foam, I know you can buy also electric cutting tools to do so. This is I have read the dust from the foam due to its contents is extremely bad.
Thanks for your question. Wearing a mask is always an option. I did not wear one because I was carving with hand tools, not rotary tools like a Dremel. If I were using a Dremel I would definitely wear a mask. Happy carving!
Will you do the " Miss Banana"?
Hi! I don't have plans for anymore of the banana character videos. I appreciate your interest, thanks for asking.
How do you detail your carvings. It looks like you might be using the wood burner
Hi Don! Thanks for your question. Sometimes I use a wood burner, sometimes I use an antiquing medium, sometimes I use neither. It just depends on the look I’m going for.
Thanks I attempted one it didn’t turn out too bad I need to work on hands
@@donburnside6448 Hands can be tricky, that's why so many carvings have hands in the pockets. Thanks for your comment and happy carving Don!
Excellent! Thank you for sharing
My pleasure, I’m glad you enjoyed it!
