Hello Jordy. You're right, it friggin rips! I got to pull the trigger on this. Thanks for inspiration Jordy! And thanks to D.Grass - It's good to know that are still good/ generous people in the world.
Thanks for the info about the grinders and thank you Mr Grass for giving Jordy that awesome piece of equipment. I'm looking forward to seeing Jordy create with it.
I use one of these for my stone carvings. Its my primary die grinder and a Work Horse. I've had it for about 7 years, replaced the brushes once and replaced the collet once. Absolutely amazing tool!
I have the black handle makita great tool,what a amazing gift from mr grass 👌 mr pimple head looks mega cool jordy,I'm off to do a bit of carving now 😀
I had to change the Collete on my die grinder to fit the cutzall but like you said. Was cheap enough to replace thankfully..but still a pain. Yep I'm from the UK Jordy 😁
Thanks for the video love your enthusiasm, the part number in in Australia is Makita GD0801C 1/4" (6.35mm) SJS HD Paddle Switch 7000 to 24000 rpm. Price A$499.00 from most vendors. They also have a low-speed unit which is good for sanding and buffing, but it is too slow for rapid removal of wood.
Hello jordy I bought a black handled die grinder which Is great an what I needed but I've somehow had the part you unscrew to change the burrs seize on me an now I can't change the burrs ,have you ever had this happen to you an if so could you please advise me on how to mend this ,thanks jordy thanks for all your videos they've taught me loads
@@CarvingFusion no problem.jordy I confuse myself , I meant the nut has seized that you unscrew to get to the collett . Anyway take care an keep doing what you love
Makita sell the gda0800c/2 which says it will take 8mm collet so i presume this will take kutzall burs? Do you have some videos on different kutzall burs and how to use them to show what each one is capable of, as there are so many to choose from and im a little stuck please can you help. Many thanks
We all love to watch you carve , and you have some big jobs coming up ? So , watch out with those tools, they don't know the different between flesh are wood , you deserve it ? See Ya
The real advantage of air die grinders is you can control rpm very accurately when you learn to use trigger. You need rear exhaust though as front exhaust can spit oil onto parts, not good if your doing wood. Front exhaust is good for clearing chips and dust though. 6mm collet is smaller than 1/4", your right you need 6.35mm. Should also be able to get 1/8" and 3mm collets
hi it's me again. I noticed that my compressor isn't powerful enough to use the 1/4 kutzall bits, and I was thinking about alternatives.. mainly bench work, can the dremel 9100 take the 1/4 bits? I'm having a hard time finding information on this. If they aren't compatible, I was thinking of the Makita GD0603 straight grinder, it looks like a dremel due to its small size, but it only has 240W. are quite? otherwise there are the larger classic ones, but they start to weigh a little too much to use them precisely on a workbench. Can you give me some advice please?
Hi there, a foredom is like a bigger dremel and has a flex shaft as well, I would look into the foredom SR SERIES with a industrial flex shaft and hand piece, be carefully of u do but a foredom it is not a fake, really do your research, If u look in my playlists u can see some foredom videos,
@@CarvingFusion Hi, thanks for replying, but it's a bit out of my budget... I just checked on the Foredom website, the total price, including shipping, is €430, the Dremel 9100 is certainly less since it costs half as much , but can you tell me if I can use the 1/4 kutzall tips? and if a small 240w straight grinder can be enough for these bits? Thank you
true, but I'm afraid of getting one that isn't powerful enough, I was disappointed by the compressor cutter I got. Can I ask you if you can check it if it's ok? it's the model of the makita GD603, it's very small that it doesn't look like a straight grinder, and it has less power (240w), it looks like a dremel, but if it's powerful enough to use for wood I'll take it :)@@CarvingFusion
A die grinder is so much more powerful than a Dremel that it is scary. So much more torque. I don't have the model number handy, but Makita makes one with a safety on/off paddle switch that you have to hold down for it to run. A die grinder with a simple slide switch will keep going if you drop it, or you might have to fumble around with the slide switch when you would really rather have it stop right away. Even with the safety switch, once it is turned off it will keep rotating with torque for a lot of turns while it slows down (must be a flywheel inside). It is a great tool, but give it plenty of respect...
I prefer a paddle switch on my angle grinders for the safety reason. But when I'm working the 8hr shift carving the details, it gets super tiring having to grip the paddle switch down on the fat barrel of the die grinder. Much easier with just the switch all day long. 👍
Wicked gift jordy cool spirt lol keep on holding down the fort brother lol I have been busy playing halo master chife remastered hahaha its been super hot an humid here stay strong bro carry-on just carve
Hey, Jordy. Hope all is well with you. I was watching this video because I have been searching pawnshops looking for a straight die grinder. All I have found so far is the pneumatic type. So I was wondering if you could help me know what kind of air compressor is needed? I have an air compressor fom my dad, but I really don't know much about compessors either. Any good info you have on compressors and/ or pneumatic die grinders would help. Pretty sure I want one of the Makita types eventually, but I was looking at getting something cheaper to start with.
Another great Video Jordy, and Fantastic wood spirits as always 😁👍quick question have you used the 1/8 collet and Burrs in your GD0800C as I would like to try it but would rather check if anyone has done this who has far more experience with die grinder carving, do you know if Ryan Cook has done it and was it successful, or know of anyone who has done it. I have just got a GD0800C but I now unfortunately have to get the 8mm collet as the 6mm collet comes with it here in the UK.
Hello Jordy. You're right, it friggin rips! I got to pull the trigger on this. Thanks for inspiration Jordy!
And thanks to D.Grass - It's good to know that are still good/ generous people in the world.
Thanks again Jordy, I was the guy with the dilemma. Here is the Order No. Makita GD0800C Die grinder collet 6.35mm. 193143-6
Love it Jordy, wish I could do eyes keep trying and still crap. Lovely gift from a very generous friend.
What a great subscriber to send this to you. Love watching you work and your appreciation.
Thanks for the info about the grinders and thank you Mr Grass for giving Jordy that awesome piece of equipment. I'm looking forward to seeing Jordy create with it.
Thanks gus hope you are well
That guy is keeping an open mind. Excellent job Jordy love your videos man. Keep up the good work.
Thanks ken
I've got the black handle one but the metal one is a beast !!! Mr D Grass your a legend dude!
I use one of these for my stone carvings. Its my primary die grinder and a Work Horse. I've had it for about 7 years, replaced the brushes once and replaced the collet once. Absolutely amazing tool!
Hey Jordy wicked gift that thing is a beast . Love the spirits .
Nice Jordy! Like the one with the hole on top...(Robin)
I have the black handle makita great tool,what a amazing gift from mr grass 👌 mr pimple head looks mega cool jordy,I'm off to do a bit of carving now 😀
Magic jordy it’s a ripper great wood spirits 👌👌👌👌
That grinder is an animal, good to see how you hog with it. WOW. Carry on.
Good review thanks. The collet size in metric is 6mm, 1/4" is 6.35mm.
I had to change the Collete on my die grinder to fit the cutzall but like you said. Was cheap enough to replace thankfully..but still a pain. Yep I'm from the UK Jordy 😁
I can hear the difference in power, wow.

What's the difference between the GD0801C and the GD0800C models?
Hiya, thanks so much for this video, have you got some using this tool for beginners to try carving along with you?
No but I will make one soon
But in my chainsaw videos I use

Yes buy make sure if u buy that makita is comes with the 6mm collet not 8
The kuzall burrs or other wood carving burrs/bits are 6mm collects AKA 1/4 INCH
Whats the difference between the GD0801C and the GD0800C models?
Speed
I still need to get a die grinder. 😎😎😎
Dayum, you are badass Jordy
Thanks
Wow, thanks!
We all love to watch you carve , and you have some big jobs coming up ? So , watch out with those tools, they don't know the different between flesh are wood , you deserve it ? See Ya
Thanks again grass
So what is the large buffer / sander you used after the Makita? Also the Dremel you used for smaller details
Dremel.4300
The real advantage of air die grinders is you can control rpm very accurately when you learn to use trigger.
You need rear exhaust though as front exhaust can spit oil onto parts, not good if your doing wood.

I don't think the dremel 9100 flex shaft tales the 1/4 bits, a die grinder is a very good tool to use and well like I show in this video :)

Some die grinders have a dual collet so you can use both 1/8 and 1/4 shanks

I need burrs and bit and the die grinder I am in Botswana wood sculptor
Thanks bud. Legend
Wicked gift jordy cool spirt lol keep on holding down the fort brother lol
I have been busy playing halo master chife remastered hahaha its been super hot an humid here stay strong bro carry-on just carve

U need a really big air compressor to use air tools, of I was u just start off witg a cheep Harbour freight die grinder
@@CarvingFusion thank you😊
The cullet I bought in Washington State is the wrong size and doesn’t fit kutzall

Hi there no I have not used the 1/8 bits in that die grinder I do think it has to much power, I know u can turn the speed down but ..
@@CarvingFusion thanks Jordy much appreciated as always 👍
I contacted Makita and they supply A 1/4” collet
how much
150+
That’s awesome!! Good stuff!! Hey David Grass from Texas, do you need my address?🤞
Those are Amazing. I can't stop looking at hole in the head.
👍
More like 6.35 mm
Share the kindness and give me your old one .
Lol
1/4" is 6mm not 600mm
Correct thank you
I think you mean 6mm not 600mm
Yes correct ty
600mm??.... thats 0.6 meter.. lol.. meant 6mm or?
Yes
@@CarvingFusion Good to know, was either that or you were some giant from another dimension with a big ass dremel ;-)

@@MuktiLuv lol 😆
You can buy a reducer adapter ¼ to ⅛ so you can use the ⅛ burrs. I have .
I Say GIVE FIRST ONE to the NICE GUY who 💲BOUGHT💲YOU that new bad ass DIE GRINDER
(I'm sure this has crossed your mind) you deserve it👍🏻
