    There is a level of satisfaction I get from making things. Does not matter if I am woodworking or metalworking. At the end of the day when I step back and look at what I made I get a feeling of satisfaction and pride because that item was made by these two hands. It does wonders for the soul and gives me a joyful feeling in my heart.

    What influenced me most was when your first eating shot was at 3:16! You were saying grace! Bless you son! Iam sure that wasn't planned but there you go! Have a great life young man!

    Nice to see your fingers survived the carving in the dark thing. The Kuksa came out beautiful, and you did a splendid job editing the video.

    Dude... right now I'm sitting at my desk at work on lunchbreak. After watching that video and seeing you sitting there at the end, I felt peace. I kid you not, I felt my body and my muscles relax. Warm, fuzzy peace... Great job on the editing, music, speaking and of course your kuksa. One more follower.

    Mitch,
    May the Lord continue to bless you.
    Thanks for the inspired video.
    Carving late into the night, and listening to the small voice must have been great.

    Very nice to see this again. I am about to make a Kuksa. I have made 2 Birch, two seasoned Hemlock, 2 Norway Maple, 1 Cottonwood, and my first was a White Pine Noggin (ugly but I love it). I have a long way to go, it’s been a while.
    Hope you show us yourself getting into the woods. We miss you. Thanks and take care. QTE

    Very interesting.
    A kuksu cup was made with a minimum set of tools.
    I also want to try, maybe at least something similar will turn out like yours.
    But you may have to do it from a different wood species.
    .and it was also nice to see that you thank the Creator before eating 👍

    Excellent video, liked it very much. I´m sure you already know this, but the kuksa is traditionally made from a (birch) burl, not a regular piece of the tree trunk. Here in Finland the trunk kuksas are considered cheap copies and something that´s made for the tourists ;)
