    Even if I was not a woodcarver I would still enjoy watching every video you do. Doug you have inspired so many people. You are a great teacher and a blessing to woodcarvers from all around.

    What better way to start my Sunday morning. I wake up to see you’ve uploaded during the night (I’m in the UK) put some coffee on & get set up ready to have a go at this. Love that you’re planning up to 25 videos in this series. Absolutely love your channel.

    Loving the new series Doug. I have only been carving for a 5 months, but I had gotten into the mindset that every carving had to be bigger and more detailed than the last. You really inspired me to go back to 1x1 and I can honestly say that I am enjoying it so much more. Thanks for everything, Gregory.

    I joined your channel only yesterday. You are becoming apparent to me. I see vibes/auras in folks. Your is clear and warm. Everyone can have varying emotions and characteristics, but most folks have a consistency in their patterns and give them out. You are also a funny guy with a healthy mentality. I like how you carve nature within nature surrounded by the plants, animals and sky of nature. I like how the sun bothers you as if saying "I'm just looking down and adjusting my vision".
    I know I'll enjoy the creations, stories and creatures of you imagination. 😊

    Really liked this one. My favorite of the 1 X 1 so far. I did realize when you were working on the nose, and you turned it sideways it looked like Huckleberry Hound. Maybe just me, but I always liked Huckleberry. I went out on my place yesterday and just sat and enjoyed it, should have taken my carving knife. Thanks for the carving and instruction. Keep up the good work.

Definitely up for having as much variety on these as you indicated (25 or so of these things by the time we're through). Sign me up, I'll be there every time. Thank you! (and yes, I fast forwarded to the end before watching the whole thing. Beauty of this format, I want to see the end before going back to carve along.😄)

    Loving the 1x1 series! Plus I have to say you are an inspiration to me to carve. You are so soft spoken and seem to always pull me into what ever you decide to carve. I do have to ask and am sure lots of us have asked this. Have you ever thought of doing a book or two on your carvings? I can tell you that I would buy any and all of them that you felt to do. Please as a person getting back into and serious about it consider doing so. Love the channel and all the projects.

I would LOVE to see a gaia/mother earth inspired whittling project from you, in the same vein as your little forest spirits that look so seamless on a tree or stick. Good vibes, and I hope you enjoy your summer! ☀️ ❤

    Once you mentioned that you looked at your UA-cam analytics and saw that people click off of your video early. Therefore you try to get through the carvings quickly.
    But for those of us that wish to follow along it’s quite hard when you move so fast, and you move the wood around so much.
    After each important section you should hold it to the camera so people can see what you have done.
