How do you make a hanger for these? I have carved about eight of these so far. Not all are finished yet, but they will be. I have oiled a couple and painted a couple. Grandkids call the oiled ones ginger bread cookies. My wife wants me to carve and paint a snow scene and place one in that with some carved carolers. I hope to take you class at MASW next year.

Thank you very much! Is it possible for you to attach a pattern for the tree?

How is the tree attached to the piece of wood?

I have never carved mahogany, is there any thing that one should watch out for when carving mahogany? What is the best type of mahogany to buy? Thanks, Tim....

@evanrobbins6708 6 лет назад

Can't help you on the best type to buy, as it will vary based on the project, but I use almost exclusively mahogany for relief carving. I am in Micronesia, and that is the local wood of choice for carving. The characteristics I find most troublesome, it is hard and dulls your chisels fast; the grain can be tricky and changes within the piece; too young of a tree and it is only good for firewood. Hope this helps.

@mountainmanwoodworks 6 лет назад

Thanks Evan, so the mahogany you use is tropical growth timber, I live in southern Colorado, where it is dry most of the time. Pine is what I can get by the ton, but it changes from tree to tree for carving. It too, can be hard on tools. I like to learn how different woods carve, It fun to try something different.

@rojacu50 6 лет назад

My apologies....I now see the pattern if you "show more". Thank you again and Happy Holidays!

Another awesome video! Why is it after watching a dozen or so of these RU-vid videos of these famous woodworkers, we feel like they’re our personal friends? My imaginary conversation in Walmart: Don: Hi Mary. Mary: Hi Don. D: Whatcha working on in your shop? M: I’m carving oak dresser door panels for the governor’s mansion. And You? D: Sawing some dried chestnut limbs in to 2” lathe stock for Christmas ornaments. Need any? You know how beautiful lathed chestnut is. M: Not now, but I never turn down an offer for wood that I don’t currently have. Bring a few pieces over and we see about making a trade. I just received a shipment of mahogany and I have a lot of basswood. D: OK, see you in a few days. M: Remember to keep your wits sharp and your tools sharper. D: Yes Ma’am. :)
