Nice job Jonathan. My son and I have been whittling/carving for a while now and we’re always looking for new ideas. Keep up the good work, looking forward to some more videos!
Very nice carving. I checked out your etsy site--Excellent work, sir! Don't worry too much about the video techniques--I'm sure it is learned gradually through experience like carving. Your explanations while laying out the design and your carving are first rate. Many thanks! Bob
Thanks for sharing your process of carving a pirate, Unfotunately, at times the harsh lighting makes it difficult to see the details you are carving. What knife are you using?
Thanks for checking it out. I’m working on improving my filming setup, hopefully future projects will be better. I’m using an Oar Carver from Queen Cutlery in this video. Unfortunately, it is no longer in production
I split 2x2” pieces on the diagonal using a bandsaw. Doug Linker has a video showing how to make a jig to make this cut. If you don’t have a bandsaw I know Heineke Wood Products will sell precut ones
Thanks for the input. Not sure how that happened, other than I don’t know what I’m doing, lol. I’ll definitely work on that when I get a chance to record again
I give up waching half way through to much is done out of frame very frustrating when im keen to see what your doing , camera is to close up , ill look for another of your videos as your a very good teacher and exelent carver .
Yeah, I’ve got to figure out a better way to film. I’m working on it, but I’m limited to just my phone and admittedly I don’t know how to maximize its potential. Hopefully future projects will be better
I liked your carving but your gloved thumb was blocking what you were doing and your project was out of the picture frame. Just thought you would want to know, Johnathan. Nice pirate.
