    No, it is NOT stupid. You are showing new carvers a simple and fun carving project that they can do. You are a great teacher, that is why I like your channel.

    It might be a simple silly carving, but it’s still fun to watch. Embrace the silliness

    Fun is never stupid (unless you get hurt) so these carvings just open up the realm of possibilities. Instead of wood dowel insert a long stainless rod and you have a fun handle for cooking hot dogs over the fire.

    I'm still new to this channel since I decided to learn something about carving. Then I see your frightened hotdog and I crack up laughing for the next five minutes, wipe my eyes and save the video for tomorrow and put it in my playlist. It's your humourous figures that inspire me. All my life humor has motivated me. Without humor I don't usually pick a new skill to learn. This is such a funny figurine. Brilliant. 😅
    Speaking of new skills, I've received my cutting gloves, two Mora knives, 120 and 106, and a supply of basswood blocks 1x1x4 and 26 pieces. Tomorrow I try the first carving, the famous little fox. Wish me well Linker.
