  • In this Power Carving tutorial, I teach how to Wood Carve letters using a Dremel or any flex shaft rotary tool. I go over both Postive and Negative Space Relief Carving.
    After this video you will understand:
    -Positive Space
    -Negative Space
    - How to combine the two
    - How to use smaller burrs to get into tight areas
    -Did you catch what I didn't say? Watch closely! :)

    Thank you for the videos. I got a flex shaft after I made a few Christmas gifts using the Dremel. I couldn't make anything without it. I've been watching videos to make my carving better so thank you for the resource.

    I'm new to Dremels, but this thing has been great. ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxfPgcZ5_Cl0HDUKkMJAKde11YKQZVgMoR The variable speed is awesome and the cordless aspect makes it so easy to work with. I am constantly finding uses for it that make tasks easier. Recently I put in a new deadbolt on one of our doors. I knew I had to enlarge the hold where the deadbolt goes into the door frame. At first I thought I would have to get a big router and figure out how to use it for that, but then I rermembered we have the dremel. I was able to enlarge the hole almost as easy as if I was drawing with a pen. It's also great for grinding our dog's nails done and so many other household tasks.

    Man! Great videos. I am working on my 1968 Bertram Bahia Mar 20 classic offshore fishing boat, and I just carved the Bertram eagle logo into the starboard wooden seat back I had built. Now I am carving the boat's name, Chirmorie, into the port side seat back. I am using the Dungeon celtic font and drew it on freehand. It's coming out fantastically. I wish I could post a picture here to show you because I'm stoked, and you helped me do this, so Thank You!

    Thank you ! I'm working on traditional Northern New Mexico retablos. I incise the outline by hand with an incising tool but I just bought a Dremel tool so that I can begin doing relief carving on my work. I paint on a pine board that is coated with rabbit skin glue gesso, incised, then painted with egg tempera paint. I will now be first: doing the relief carving on the bare wood, then coating with gesso...etc. Your lesson was very helpful to me.

    I love graffiti. It is where I got started in my art. I now do all forms of art. I always wanted to carv graffiti into wood. Well, I finally got a basic dermal kit. I did some really kool pieces. I used all the wrong tips only to find out I was using the wrong ones. I did awesome pieces.i never thought about UA-cam. After watching videos I can only imagine the work I could of done. My biggest struggle is fine lines. I did shaggy from scooby doo. His face got destroyed. I ended up scrapping that project. Now the scooby I did was on point. I was excited to try new things. Frustrated at the fine lines lacking in my details. I had no idea the tips you can use. Let's say I love to creat and will never stop. I have tackled so many forms of art. Tools of trait are my only weakness stopping me from doing great work. But with mediocre tools I feel I do a good job. I will always find a tool of some sort to use on a project. Always knowing I can do better. Then I find out there are tools that allow me to do that. I look forward to doing art with wood. It's fun and takes time.
