Hi Phil. Great to see a a master at work and how to correct mistakes! Wood is a living thing and as much as we 'read' it, it has a mind of its own. Please keep them coming. Thanks!
I’m a traditional WetShaver and many barbers today use a Shavette witch looks very much like a cut-throat but takes a half of a DE (Doubble-edge) Blade . Due to blood born pathogens 🦠 💈 🔪
It does, and there are many woodworkers who swear by it instead of going back to stone/diamond block as often. I think you will need to be stropping quite often though so the edge doesn't get too dull for that to work, but it is a lot quicker to do. I usually do a few strops when I am pausing a cutting action (maybe done or moving onto another part) and it does seem to help, but I still regularly stone them as well since that really brings out the edge when needed.
Bass wood is excellent for carving, I have used bass wood for years, avoid pine when you start, just about any wood can be carved, but Bass is the best to start with. Can not stress enough, sharp tools are a must!
To Bevcam, Please delete this comment after you read it. Not sure if you made the video or just copied it! If you plan on making any more with Phil, please make sure his fly is zipped up. Was down in the carving ones. Have a great day!
Why not make sure that you are truly saved by Jesus Christ and practice this way. Remorsefully confess with your heart your sins to Jesus Christ who is God and tell Him that you right now are repenting of your sins and you want to be born again of the Spirit from above. Tell Jesus that you are remorsefully sorry for breaking His commandments and that you are begging for forgiveness from Him. Allow His blood from the cross to wash away your sins. After this is done with your heart successfully the Holy Spirit will come to live within you and He will rebuild you from the inside out. Look for signs that you are saved. Things like spreading the good news from Jesus, getting other people saved, a craving for the word of God, reading the Bible, etc… These things are known as a calling and fruit bearing. If you're not bearing fruit then keep doing it. Sometimes it takes time to get saved. Read Matthew chapter 13 from the King James Bible. God bless!!!
Even though I have been woodworker for years, I'm still enjoying these tutorial videos. Beautifully presented, with wonderful patience...
Thank you!

Great Teacher. Thanks
When you cut flutes do you ever use a knife like when you make a mortise with a chisel
Thanks for sharing, I am really enjoying this series :)

Thank you very much for your video!
Does frequent stropping during use maintain the edge so the stones are seldom needed?

Thank you sir!
Thank you Phill good video! I especially like your unique pedestal mount for your work piece, I never seen that before.
How is your work piece attached to your platform? Love your lessons.
Looks like double sided tape...

What wood would you suggest to start with for beginners?
