Hi Matt, i have been interested in this hobby for a while now but haven't really had much time but due to an injury I've picked up some gear to get started, I'm glad to find someone here from New Zealand, who shows how they do things, thanks for ur detailed instructions, i have now subscribed to your channel
Thanks for the video Matt . I love your carving style. I’ve been carving into “purging buckthorn” these last few weeks. The wood is extremely hard but it’s the prettiest wood I’ve ever seen. I’ll upload a vid hopefully today.
@@MattCarvesit’s when people puke down the thread after feeling an attack. I believe china was born in the 90’s; but still, thinking if I can embroider a purse by copying an old medieval design of a dragon strangling a deer onto it in metal threads, it could be my new profitless hobby of making carved pelmets for my bedroom curtains. Since I can’t acquire them anywhere else.

I could start with just a stylus, even etch some modesty panels in the glass, before carving a hole out the brickwork to make way for stained glass arches. (If only I knew how to make stained glass that is; can’t be skilled at everything). As frustrating as it is for one’s skills to be too inadequate to realise their visions.
What a great tutorial. I’ve broken out the dremel,well some of it but have been using it for carving and cutting things other than wood, so not good or expensive burrs. O live dragons so anything with them I love.
Wow excellent timing; I just acquired a 4000+flex shaft. Question: are you using breathing protection? I've got a big beard and don't want to shell out for a PAPR..
I practice on cheap bamboo cutting boards. I get at a local shop that's like a dollar. The bamboo is a little strange to cut or should I say to drimmer on? I also cut up 2 x 4 s used in lumber for framing
after i got used to the kiwi twang ... you sir did a well job of teaching this, thank you. i look forward to more from you .

Welcome to the channel Gary. A good wood to carve in here is Macrocarpa, but with power tools you can carve most woods.
Thanks Matt. Congratulations on reaching 10k subscribers. Heres your monthly coffees
Cheers John. Much appreciated. I hope you're going well, and carving something awesome 👍

Great to hear bro. Relief carvings like this is a great place to start. Good luck Tim
Wonderful thanks Matt. Your tutorials really provide a great details. ❤❤
Cheers John, think I went a bit overboard on details. 😆
@@MattCarves No people can filter out what they need.

I’m a big fan of the longer vids btw 👍
I haven't heard of purging buckthorn sounds interesting👍

Nice work Matt like always!!
Cheers Joe, that's an oldie.
Great video. Thanks for sharing.
Awesome stuff Matt, your relief carving is getting better. I really like that dragon, the background pattern makes it pop! 👍👍👍
Thank you! Cheers! yeah I love that background.
U could print that pur ink on it and paper

Yeah I use a 3m half mask. Welcome to the channel 👍

Can't say I have ever carved bamboo, sounds fibrous.
@@MattCarves I really don't like the bamboo I'm done with it
What wood is used for this ?!! Matt
its Salusalu. Probably only available in the Pacific area.
