This is great information. I just started making my own custom pistol grips and have wondered how I can do stipple on a wood grip. You have opened up my eyes...thanks!
@@incanada83 It might be an old video, it’s new to me: the Magic of UA-cam…. ;)) Still don’t see why he chooses to sand it by hand. Only possible that I can think of right now, is that using the rotary tool to sand could be ‘too aggressive’, but even then it’s a matter of being careful and using the right grit (at least 180-200) It might seem like too much of a tiny issue to be thinking about, but I have pretty severe osteoarthritis in my hands, so I absolutely prefer to use my Dremel over sanding by hand. However: I don’t want to ruin my project of course, so if there’s a reason for sanding by hand, it would be nice to know so.
I've been looking for videos like this for so long

I am glad that this video has helped out. Have fun carving.
Hey Tim, great job! Looks beautifull. What kind of power too do you use to make these kind of textures?
Gonna try to add this to my releif printing designs

Hi. Which is the burr tool carbide bit that you have used? What's the diameter of it?
Thank you for sharing . 😀
Great video, thank's Tim you are giving me ideas all the time in your instructional video's. I hope you keep doing them, cheer's mate.
what is that tool?
High Speed Engraver - 400XS from SCM Systems. There are other great high-speed engravers on the market as well.
Tim Vande Sluis thanks man
Awesome , thank you .
Maybe a stupid question, but why not use some of the sanding bits on your rotary tool?
(Using it very carefully of course)
Miranda Bakker, maybe because it's an old video? :-)
