      I'm Glad, just don't use the lancelot I use in that video they are pretty dangerous , I don't recommend them anymore. Use a kutzall disk in stead or your chainsaw to face it off. It's much safer.

    I never knew my old friend Chuck was a wood spirit until I saw you carve his face out of that pine knot. Truly looks like him, beard and all. He does wood burnings and is a great artist in his own right. He is a vet, and he tutored me in carpentry for nearly ten years now. I'm feeling inspired to make one of these just like yours and give it to him for his next birthday. Now I gotta go get even more tools to add to the collection. Thank you so much for sharing your art with us youtubers and the world. Much appreciated!

    Interesting mix of methods, I was surprised you didn't finish it using the rotary with smaller bits for detail work. It looks much more authentic and natural by hand. I'm just trying to learn with the rotary right now but I do appreciate the manual style. Great job!

    Really, really nice artwork and instruction. The is my first time to see someone carve a "wood spirit". What a thrill to see all this strange messy knot be transformed into something so cool looking! Like a stone sculptor, you could see all the potential. Great job, and very enjoyable to watch. Thanks so much for the upload. God bless you. Have a great year.

    Hi Kevin, could you maybe one day show how to carve a wood spirit with nothing else but a Arbortech mini grinder. All the best Andy from Devon in the UK.

    • @stixandstonescarving
      @stixandstonescarving  7 років тому

      I will when I get another mini grinder , mine is broken after years of
      use. You will still need some hand tools though for finer details once
      most of the work is done.

  • @DeuSJaguaR
    @DeuSJaguaR 2 роки тому

    Thank you 🙏 thank you 🙏 for the video !!!! I learned a lot and it was possible because of the awesome teaching and explanation you provided . This video gave me another perspective on carving forest spirit faces . Im relatively new on this but i already carved 4 forest spirits (not as awesome as yours though ) ok , I’m using a dremel 4300 with its flex shaft so one question , do you hang your dremel ? If so how high ? Asking cause I heard that by hanging your dremel all the grease goes to the handpiece but , the dremel comes with its little hanger to be hung up so , is that even true that the grease will run to the handpiece (the flex shaft ) or not ? It’s really much easier to have the dremel hanging cause it kinda gives more freedom while carving but I’d really like to know cause I don’t wanna mess it up , can’t afford buying another one now .. thx in advance , thanks for the awesome video and teachings and I’m your new subscriber and student as well , thank you !!!!!

Didn't get it from his Mother! lol! Your video is very good. Just wish you could place the camera where your shoulder and hand aren't in the way and the traffic was somewhere else. Made it hard to hear what you were saying in places. Thanks for sharing your wonderful talent.

    I've paused at @4:45 to write this. I haven't seen the whole video yet. I'd like you to view your footage again, and pause right about where you shut off the grinder at 3:09 or so. Tell me you don't see the face that is already in the wood at that point. Now, at 4:45, you're drawing a face over that face. I don't believe for a minute that you didn't see it. It's all there - eyebrows; eyes; nose; mouth; chin, and cheekbones; hair and hairline; neck, in a left-quarter view. I go on, now, to the rest of the video.

    • @stixandstonescarving
      @stixandstonescarving  6 років тому

      Of coarse, That's why I love carving these guys because they are already living in the wood , I just liberate them but you are right, they are already there.

      jason hubbard What does that have to do with you and your mis-titled video?. If you are going to machine a sculpture, then title you video correctly.
      By the way, nice language, you sound like a lovely fellow.

    • @TheCwright1976
      @TheCwright1976 7 років тому +2

      Chance1957 pretty sure it's not machining. He is actually doing the work, not setting peramiters and letting the machine go. Still, I don't understand why you chose to go after him. What good does it don't criticize an artist like this? Where is your work that is up for criticism?

    • @Chance-ry1hq
      @Chance-ry1hq 7 років тому

      Conal Wright
      Machining: Process such as abrading, cutting, drilling, forming, grinding, and/or shaping of a piece of metal or other material performed by machine tools such as lathes, power saws, drills, dremels, and presses. ...
      I don't believe I criticized him, I suggested he change his title to reflect what he was doing.
      Are all you little whimsical sculptors, so sensitive?
      To answer your question my work is on display in the real world, not on UA-cam.

    • @TheCwright1976
      @TheCwright1976 7 років тому +2

      Chance1957 why the name calling? Why so defensive? If UA-cam is not the real world, why bother commenting or even watching? I just don't understand why people with superior attitudes feel the need to attack on social media.
