I could not keep my eyes off this from start to finish. You showed an excellent example of the technique of marking out that I will remember. Thanks Wayne. Power to your elbow.
IainB THANK YOU! , I to enjoy watching the crafting of raw materials, especially no talk videos. So I have been trying to mimic the no talk method. I'm glad you enjoyed it. Thanks to the air driven hammer that reduces wear and tear on the elbows.
That's mesmerizing, Wayne! I couldn't take my eyes of the work. Thank you for the video! All the while I'm scheming in my head how to get 'some of that' in a meaningful way. Even seeing the small slabs in background gets me excited. That's for sharing your knowledge and skill!
Hi! Greetings from Southern Ontario, Canada. Mike Haduck sent me here and I can't wait to see your incredible work. I'll be 60 years old shortly and it looks like I have myself a new hobby and hope to learn a lot here. Cheers!
Excellent demonstration of the technique. Nowadays we do tend to speed up things by using diamond blades on angle grinders, but unless you understand the underlying carving techniques and principles, you'll never get that quite right
Beautiful work! Im a mason in NYC we restore Brownstone facades and we build the design in place. Stone carving will be something I would love to learn.
Nice! Only cut lime on a hand full of projects my experience is in sandstone-I’m a Scottish mason- my YT is for gaming stuff but concisering doing masonry content on a different channel, I’m subbed now keep up the good work in sharing your skills for future generations 🤟🏴🇺🇦 respect 💪⚒
I personally would always choose to use the air chisel but there's a ton of companies that swear by hand making. Even they rough cut with modern power saws though
Yeah, its all a matter of personal preference, just like transportation, there are different means to the same end results, depending on a multiple of variables an to each his own.
Hello Tom, please excuse the delay in my reply, yes it is a full stroke, that's all I use, however I have used the short stroke for delicate work, as it is less aggressive. In the stone world as in most others time is of the essence, and so I use the tool that removes the stone faster.
