  • Carving a small character out of a 1.25 x 1.25 x 6 in block of wood from start to finish.
    The character in this video is call the Alaska chick. Check out Alaskawoodchuck.org for a free pattern. This video was produced so that it can be in in the background at the carving club or so you can have your music on while you carve along.
    The video is at 2x the speed so remember carve slow. Don’t forget to stop, strop, and think it through. The cutout for this little one was done on a Dewalt scroll saw.
    More videos in the future will include topics like, getting started, making cut outs, spoon carving, wood burning, cotton wood bark houses, and more.
    If you like these videos please share and make sure you subscribe. Alaska woodchuck is primarily for the local carving club hear in Anchorage Alaska. The idea is to promote wood carving and wood working to anyone.

    So I just started looking into wood carving again and I was looking for all the accounts I used to watch… you had other videos like a few years ago right?

    Hey James, where did you get the long pointed knife in the video? Who makes it, and do have a link?

    What happened to all your other videos? Did you take them down? I was looking for the ones where you created a wizard. In any case, it's good to have you back.

    Hi, I have a question about the gouges and the v tools you use.I see tools are Swiss made. I also have them but I find they are a bit long and that makes them not so comfortable as flex cut. But I think they cut and work better than Flex cut. I'm not really sure but I noticed that you've made yours shorter. Is that right or I'm wrong? Tell me more about this, please.

    • @alaskawoodchuck785

      No, these are as they came. Truth is I prefer both. The brand isn’t how I think about it. There are gouges I like more by flexcut and some I prefer by swiss made. That said I agreethat flexcuts are more comfortable but pfiel metal its better so the edges last longer.
