I watched you make the bull. That was pretty cool. In regards to your finger, I almost chopped of mine cutting pipes under the house. I'm a 100% disabled veteran and the VA amputated everything under my right knee 2 years ago. As I am a Marine, I think it would be awesome if you could do a 3d rendering of the Marine corps eagle, globe, and anchor.

I can see your love for wood and sculpture, and your passion for putting your own ideas into your works. It's very touching! I hope that one day I can also ask you to help me make a work and mail it to Taiwan.

I think “imperfection” in a handmade item makes it unique and one-of-a-kind…it is the fingerprint and mark of its creator. Mass production or computer production does not produce the patina and character and rarity of something made by the imagination and craftsmanship of a human being. I enjoyed watching your creative process and the outcome is truly stellar! I look forward to more of your videos! ✨

@davel696969 7 месяцев назад

Bulls & cows pick up scars from barbed wire nails & other sharp objects on the fences used to keep them on your property. That's why Rolls Royce leather is so expensive. All of the posts & fences get wrapped so the cows wouldn't scar their hide/skin. That Makes for blemishes in the hide/skins used to wrap high-end vehicles & clothes.

Pretty cool how you were able to get back in the shop after an accident like that. I nearly lost my thumb and i couldn't even look at my workshop for a month.

@DanteYewToob 3 месяца назад

For me, it helps to admit that I was the moron who screwed up and if I slow down and use a bit of caution I’ll be fine. I cut the tip of my thumb off with my mandolin slicer while messing around making midnight cheese snacks… lol the next day I used it to make a salad and my roommate was like “dude! wtf!? You’re using that death trap again!” and I’m like “yeah… I want thin cucumbers.” Haha I know that I didn’t use the guard, I forced a hard cheese through the slicer which is a big no-no and I didn’t bother using the nonslip pad either… I basically threw safety out the damn window and locked it. Same with my motorcycle the first time I crashed… it was a low speed crash but I had anxiety for a few days about even getting on it until I remembered… I chose to ride in the rain, I made a dumb mistake and rode up onto a painted section quickly trying to get some cover and had I just used common sense I would’ve been fine. So next time something happens, take it as a learning opportunity and don’t let your anxiety control you. Fear can be just as dangerous as carelessness. Sometimes being timid can cause a whole host of other dangerous situations. Good luck, stay safe!

As a non woodworker I totally agree on leaving the imperfections. They’re part of the humanity and story of the piece - those things will increasingly become more important than ever. Also I’d love to see a feline sculpture like a tiger or leopard 😊 glad your finger is ok 👍

@anglerseawolf9919 7 месяцев назад

I would tend to agree. Having seen real bulls (I grew up on a small farm) their skin and body are rarely ever perfect. The imperfections add realism. The only thing I would suggest is to remove the obvious sanding mistakes. This just makes me think the artist didn't want to mess with it. But the dings and such add to it.

@toddr2893 2 месяца назад

I love the base! Perfect fit. Leave the flaws. Not only does it lend to hand carving but a Bull is also going to have scars and imperfections. It's like when you buy a new pickup and are scared to scratch the box. It's a pickup! Used for work. Beat it up and use it for what it was intended for. I love all of your sculptures. This is by far my favorite piece!

@fm114fd 7 месяцев назад

So glad you decided to keep the "flaws". As you said, it adds value showing it was hand-carved; it also reflects the bull's hide, showing a life of challenges and battles. Beautiful sculpture, and even more so with the imperfections.

@farkiemacd 7 месяцев назад

As a person who does handmade art, I understand the point of keeping the imperfections. We strive to be as perfect as we can be, but in the end, it IS handmade and this is all part of the process. I would absolutely embrace that, if I were the owner of this gorgeous piece.

As a knifemaker myself, im gonna go the opposite way and say that I don't like keeping the imperfections in, especially easily fixable ones. I find it hard to draw the line between leaving the imperfactions, calling it "charm" and being lazy, not fixing easy mistakes. If course every handmade product will have mistakes, but to me it feels a bit unfinished if they are really easy to fix.

@clockworktri 6 месяцев назад

Thanks for the safety reminders! Watching the pattern take shape was very cool, and the end result was gorgeous. But this sculpture also made me search what a bull's unit looks because the shape and placement seemed so odd and now I know too much about bull anatomy... This video was a roller-coaster.

@simonedoherty6195 5 месяцев назад

What an amazing piece. I am very pleased the bull has his family jewels returned to him. I was very sad to hear of the mistake but impressed by the remedy. I absolutely loved the base plate. A wood base would have competed with the beautiful sculpture, this gorgeous plate stood proud in itself and complimented the bull at the same time. First time I've watched your videos and will be watching more in the future. Keep up the good work. Also thanks for including your injury and the reasons behind it. I am a beginner woodworker, only a few years experience, and it was great to see why your injury happened and how it could have been prevented. Having said that, I'm glad it wasn't too serious for you and you are recovering well. Sorry, what a lot of words! but thanks.

@tealeaf3200 7 месяцев назад

I think the steel base was such a good choice, the pitting looks really cool with that bluing on it. For the brass, I would try heating it up to bend it, brass is a really soft metal so it shouldn't be too hard to make it bend the way you want it to.

They don't lend credit to the endless hours of routing, dremelling and carving to complete the hand made process first! I found beauty in certain imperfections where i used to loose my mind obsessing for perfection! Now mind you if i didn't say something no one would probably even know! But...as an artist, find beauty in knowing we are not all perfect all the time! I loved your comment about one day everything machine made being perfect! Gotta love the beauty of a hand made piece, and whoever looks over pieces to find and point out flaws is simply a douche anyway! BHahaha PS. As a proud Tauraus myself!

I really like how the metal base turned out! It's a nice simple contrast from the complex pattern of the wood, and the pitting keeps it interesting without being distracting. I think it would be cool to do some kind of lizard for your next sculpture. Like an iguana or gecko or bearded dragon. It could be tricky because a lot of lizards are fairly detailed but that might be an excuse to show off a cool type of wood as the skin texture or something. Or make a tree snake coiled up on or around a branch. Snakes are simple but when twisted up could make for some interesting shapes. Excited to see whatever you end up doing next!

I'm 60 and have been using a band saw since about the 4th grade and have never needed stitches for a slip on the band saw but have had my fair number of nicks so I am lucky. Depending on safety features can get you injured when THEY fail, so it's a good idea to know to sometimes PULL a piece through the band saw and anchor your feed hand so it cannot jump forward and use good wood for your push devices that cannot crack and break because of cross grain weak spots. Good luck Nubby.

Beautiful work, as always. Leaving the imperfections totally makes sense on a bull - battle scars! Not sure if this would be possible but I think an octopus would be such a cool sculpture to try out.

This really tested my "Trust the Process" tingle to the Max. Awesome work man. Be safe.

Bullseye. Excellent piece. One of my favorites.

I love everything about this! The pitting on the plate and leaving the slight imperfections creates character to the sculpture that it wouldn't have otherwise. I'd definitely leave the imperfections. The hand made industry shrinks by the year and seeing that something was carefully crafted by hand is priceless. I'd love to see you carve my favourite mythical creature. A Gryphon!

That would be an amazing sculpture! 😮

Absolutely incredible! By the way, I always thought a life-sized Dragon statue would be awesome! Each scale could be a different metal or dyed metal and there could be a hatch in the head to make a fire, so the eyes and mouth would glow and smoke would come out of the head.

I love it with the imperfections! And I also really love the base, that style in metal is SO cool!

Even just the curls from the planer are BEAUTIFUL! This is incredible!

Nothing in handcrafted art is perfect, that is the beauty of it. As a artist myself the struggle is real to create perfection, beautifully broken is my motto. Loving your work and videos. :)

Imprefectios made this work perfect, actually. It's so good, congratulations on your efforts. Also, the cutting boards look great.

The potted base worked out perfect and the few flaws in the bull totally give it character! Thanks for sharing!

I’d love to see you do a Greek statue next! I’ve never seen anything like that :)

Bullseye! Another amazing piece brother! Well done! ❤️‍🩹🤍💙

I would ADORE one of those cutting boards! Such a beautiful pattern!!!

Definitely a good call leaving the flaws. I want to see you make a puffer fish or a porcupine. I feel like making wood spikes would present an interesting challenge.

@BMSculptures Would love to see you try to carve a school of fish - you normally do one animal at a time but it would be cool to see a whole group of the same animal. Always love to see your videos and glad to hear you are healing well!

I just admire your energy and dedication, the flaw is the signature of yours, i trust that leaving it with semi finished is great, I'm with you.

What a beautiful, I really like the pattern, it looks goegeous! I also like that the hooved and horns are in a beautiful light contrast. I even like the steel, too! I do not think that in 10, 20 or 50 years no one will want handmade products. Art is important, and there will always be people that love handmade things, that appreciate them and want them.
