Matt, that was a magnificent face. So realistic and expressive. Thank you for all your videos. They are really helpful for aspiring woodcarvers. The detail that is revealed with your close-up camera work, is much appreciated. Best wishes to you.
Love your style and diversity Matt, everything that you carve has a unique edge to it. Always interesting to watch and pick up pointers, you don't mess around and the journey you take us on within a few short minutes has become a rollercoaster of knowledge. Thank you so much for what you do. 😉
Don't know if you're familiar with Cheech Marin and Tommy Chong from the Cheech and Chong movies, but it looks like Chong. Lol made me laugh a little bit. keep up the great work.✌️♥️😀
I melted it, I was carving a Totora tree ring to make a carved coffee table and I smelt a burning plastic and basically I ran it for too long and it melted
Slow and steady wins the race, Matt. Thanks for posting with pop-ups on what bits you're using during the process. It's extremely helpful!🤙
Cheers, glad your finding the videos and popups useful. 👍🙂

How much would something like this sell for ?
I don't sell my carvings, so sorry I couldn't say.
Bet that rimu was 'fun' to carve. I won't be carving for awhile, I managed to kill my dremel.
Yeah I'm no a fan of carving Rimu. What's wrong with the dremel?
I melted it, I was carving a Totora tree ring to make a carved coffee table and I smelt a burning plastic and basically I ran it for too long and it melted
@@markanthony559 holy cow that's something.
