    Thanks, Doug, for showing the finishing touches with the oil and the paints. This helps to fully conceptualize the end result. I think this'll be my next project...😁

    My husband is a woodturner and he has been making trees, snowman, lanterns, bells and more and I have been doing the same thing as your wife, arranging them everywhere.

    I gotta say, the way you come up with and explain these tutorials is absolutely amazing. I normally watch fully once, give it a shot, then watch again to be able to identify any slight changes I can make to improve on my next one. My carvings have improved a ton thanks to the many tips and tricks I've learned from you.

    Doug, thank you for all the carvings, tutorials, and paint video's. I realize you spent a lot of time on this, for us.
    Despite the time you have. Thank your wife, too from me, for supporting you to do this. I know how important backup is. I'll send you a picture from a tree that I made.

    Really, really cool! The short cuts, "Doug's way" make this so much easier than the finished tree looks. You're the best! Merry Christmas to all the Linkers! Oh a cabin, little house, shed or teepee would be cool.

    Doug, you make it look so easy, I'm going to have a go at these and have a scene in mind with some snowmen. Look forward to the 'possible' extra of a Cabin, absolute inspiration to woodcarvers! Hope you get the balance between your life and 'youtube' I know you will. Warmest greetings from Titanic Town.

  • @Alresu
    @Alresu 3 місяці тому

    I really like this little project! I found, that it's better for me to change up the order a bit. I do the chips in upper row, then connect them and make the scoops. Then I make the next row and so on. This has the effect that you basically can see the tree growing out of the wood and helps with showing a preview of the results earlier. Good if you react better to instant gratification^^
