Definitely try again, I was apprehensive about how this one was going to turn out because sculpting is really a different skill set than woodworking, but y'all managed to pull off a great 1st attempt.

Sharks are no joke to carve! I built a 10-foot tiger shark for a middle school science classroom that was one of my favorite/most challenging builds on my channel. Great work on this table and tackling a really complex design. I'd love to see more like it!

@John_Malecki Год назад

I just checked that out. Insane my friend, well done ! awesome channel !!

your work is amazing bro... i am going to sub , ever done a tigar oscar?

@AuthenticAfricanAdventures Год назад

Please please please do another one! This is brilliant. Authentic content where everything doesn't turn out 10000% percent realistic and perfect. This is the real content we love

@jeffharvey8283 Год назад

I think your first try was awesome, and we all know you learn so much after each attempt. As an artist, what I think would help a lot is the prep work. Draw a rough look of the whole shark, and then draw a straight line across to represent where the table top would be, that way you aren't guessing at sizes or anything because you have the whole shark drawn in proportion to start. That would help a ton with the flow of the whole piece. Then from there your awesome woodworking skills take over.

@clintsiefers7074 Год назад

Keep doing these builds. It's awesome to see something that challenges you and I think we would love to watch you improve your realistic carving!

@Hellsong89 Год назад

Yes, though might try to have foresight to design the material usage little better. Could have just cut that front peace in 45degree and save some material. Since exotic woods around here are really expensive i hate to see even tiny peace go to waste and i mean tiny. I could use just under a inc off cuts in my projects to make it pop, but walnut here is hella expensive. Closest thing to exotic is northern juniper and with massive luck some white oak, but cant really get anything with color and yes i know staining is a thing, but that is not the same.

@bebophippie1781 6 месяцев назад

What are you talking about. This is the most realistic wooden shark I have ever seen. Great job, I love it.

@OldManLondre Год назад

Super cool! One suggestion if you do this again: make the teeth separately and then glue them in place after you’ve carved the sharks mouth - this should give you more space to work in the mouth and allow you to carve the teeth more carefully.

@michaelrice6315 Год назад

I feel like making the raw shape before it goes on, including the 2 piece head (upper and lower jaw) would make this much cleaner. Though I love the way he worked the walnut grain in to it.

@rockyperez2828 11 месяцев назад

Oldman I had a similar idea but use white dominoes and carved them to look like teeth

@princess_styles 11 месяцев назад

I just found your channel and i am absolutely binge watching all of your videos. I’m a 17 yr old artist and seeing all of your projects gives me so much inspiration for my next painting and sculpture! I am really happy I found your channel :)

@HunteroftheNorth Год назад

A hippo would be super interesting, you could use a similar technique since they also stick their heads out of the water

@julesschoony812 Год назад

Yes! Definitely try to do this again! I really enjoyed watching the process.

@siraadam4343 Год назад

Every one is inspired by someone, but not every one can make an incredible video about it. You guys killed it with this, I can’t wait for the next one!

@PerrynBecky Год назад

It's great to see someone expanding their horizons. My wife and I work with wood for a hobby, and we've put our previous skills from former occupations into doing the stuff we do; so definitely do more of this stuff. As long as you're having fun, you can't go wrong.

@SlppyBacn Год назад

Maybe one of my favorite videos you've made! There's something so cool seeing you just sit down and figure out new things all the time. Would love to see another attempt at an animal!

@darin.terwilliger Год назад

Not only do you enjoy getting better at carving, Just think of all the cool things you will have carved for your children with all the practice you will be doing. DO MORE :)

@moreworkfortrevor2027 Год назад

#1, do you art at all! You don't carve because you're a wood worker, it's because you're an artist and you've accumulated skills through many years of hard work. Welcome to art my friend! Good luck, you now feel how every artist feels every day, disappointed but excited to try again!

@chicagohh Год назад

Do more like this - but bigger! This was so interesting to watch you learn and execute.

@BrandonHinojosa Год назад

Really cool to see you get out of your comfort zone and take on these challenges, I’d love to see a second edition! Thanks for making this!

@jacksimmo197 Год назад

Looks great for a first attempt. I think you should go bigger next time. I would have thought it would be a little easier with a bigger piece as the smaller details like the teeth wouldn't be as tiny to carve. Great work though loved this video!

@nafy118 8 месяцев назад

Absolutely try this again, you were sooooo close to nailing it but the head was just not quite to scale and those lower teeth either needed moving back or removed entirely! Though saying this they might have worked with a larger head. To clarify, no, i can't do better, but as a marine biologist with a liking for wood working those are the bits that stood out to me.

@johnnyb95678 Год назад

Great learning exercise! Always appreciate how you share your discovery process with us. We get to learn right along with you. And yes, give it another try. I agree with Anthony that it could awesome coming out of a river table. Thank you!

@john_drennon Год назад

Looks really cool. So awesome to see you tackle a new method and just go for it. Obviously, there is room for improvement, but that was pretty freaking good! I'd love to see you do something like this again, but combine it with some of your resin pour skills. I think a river table with a giant Anaconda or Crock coming out of it would be pretty amazing. Might even make an epic collab with The Dow. He does the animal, you build out the table with the resin pour around the carving. As always, thanks for the great content!

@lukepearce3592 Год назад

It's amazing to see the level of detail and craftsmanship that goes into your projects

@user-my1ro4pe2e 8 месяцев назад

Sir, you are a badass for saying that if you are in the Pittsburg area I will mill your slab for you. That is some serious awesomeness and we certainly need more people who act like that willing to help out others.

@jasonhardin8383 Год назад

Definitely should try this again. I would also recommend cutting the rough shape on the blocks not attached to the table. You could then use silicone to pour around the rough shapes in an enclosure so you have a complete flat surface to clamp down on. The silicone may compress a bit requiring more force to be applied, though in theory, should still work. Test in small scale before committing to a large piece.

@donnygrahambuilds Год назад

Man - the waves/currents around the shark mixed with the charring was definitely the move. Really improved the overall look. Excited to see what your next attempt looks like!

@darkinertia2 Год назад

i just realized that the dow is the guy that made joe rogans anaconda table as well, he just recently brought it up in a recent podcast

@theguythattalksshitonyoutube Год назад

Definitely a cool concept, I think the back fin shoulda been at an angle a bit instead of straight on.. but awesome work man!! I'm an artist, would LOVE to try stuff like this if I had the tools! Well done!

@maxclips3152 Год назад

Same lol cuz most sharks fins do lean to one side because of nutritional deficiencies

@nickroth593 Год назад

Definitely try again! I noticed how the head being over the end of the table would make it way easier to carve the upper teeth! Now I want to try 😂

@ScyberDruid Год назад

I think it looks great for your first attempt. Carving is a much different skill than building high quality furniture. Great job, John. Keep at it and you'll be a master before you know it.

@matthewryan8463 Год назад

Looked great - I particularly loved how charring the 'waves' around it came out, that looked awesome. A couple minor critiques if you try again, the lower jaw looked a bit too much of an underbite, and maybe some more rounding at the back of the head where it comes out of the water or something, felt a little too squared off (that's also where adjusting the proportions will help too, I think). As far as catching the teeth on fire - maybe not that, but possibly adding some charring inside to darken it up for that "razors that rip you to shreds before you disappear down a dark gullet" look could be cool ;)

@jasonlewis3620 Год назад

Do a colab with him! Build some epic table and get him into carve it, then you can check out his technique and tools! Maybe some crazy table to auction off to support a kids charity or wounded veteran charity. You got this shit!

@triannaclarke1554 Год назад

This is awesome! Definitely try again using The Dow’s as inspo. I think the end fin being at a slight angle might have helped with the scale issue you had

absolutely push yourself in this area, i find these to be some of your coolest videos when you get into carving

@ShrikeZeta Год назад

turned out really well hope to see more carving soon. on that note I carve aswell and one of my favourite tools is the triton super jaws, it makes manipulating the piece sooo much easier also made larger custom jaws for it should also take a look at manpa tools they have some amazing power carving tools that might tickle your fancy.

@wyvernsieyes Месяц назад

starting small can be good to get started, but the smaller you go the harder it is to do the detailing. going bigger is more intimidating but easier to work the proportions and details into

@mattf9096 Год назад

Good job for a first try for sure! There is a pretty wide gap between the artistry of a woodworker and a sculptor and you should be proud of the outcome. I watch a bunch of makers who carve crazy stuff from XPS foam and maybe that would be good medium to practice in before tackling another project in wood. It's cheap and carves easier and might help you improve your technique with 3D stuff like this.

@jasonsmith7402 Год назад

I would personally try carving and sanding everything before attaching it to the slab. It would give so much more access to those hard to reach places and easily to get more detail.

@JazzyDaddy. 22 дня назад

Yes please to more carvings! I’m thinking a casket with skeletons coming out of it! I know it’s plenty of time until Halloween, but think about having it completed by then? Casket, casket, casket!!!

@alexfreeman4245 Год назад

This feels like a great series to add to the channel, and is the video of yours I've enjoyed the most for a while. Would love to see you do your own 3 levels on this, by getting better and better at it. Alex

@saintignatius714 Год назад

As a wood carver myself, my best advice/suggestion for another project would be to start with something more simple like a squid. It might help with your perception of dimension and organic shapes with carving since it's just a series of cones/tubes so it should be far more simple. Maybe you could add a little wooden ship and make it the Kraken for shits and giggles lol

@allenwelsch2839 Год назад

John, of course we all want you to do another build. We want to sit back and watch yinz work hard while we enjoy a local craft brew or three.

@trashflood7883 Год назад

You should search up the otter table. Believe it is an older Scottish gentleman, all done by hand, two otters swimming on a table. Most beautiful wood carving I’ve ever seen. Also, you should look into arbortech if you plan to do any more power carving.

@louwrensbekker8948 Год назад

Good day sir. Love the channel!!! It seems that you have the basics down of how its done. Please do another video. This table looks "good" but I think you have a "AWSOME" in the future. Blessings from South Africa.

@BullfrogKid1234 Год назад

I think you should absolutely do it again but have him come and do a collaboration.

@alexglanowski695 Год назад

I do power carving too; the flex shaft for the dremel may be my best/favorite purchase. It makes carving in tight spots so much easier

@joshthompson2184 3 месяца назад

You gotta do it again! You did a great job considering you have such little carving experience. As a sculpter and wood carver tbh the simpler the shape the harder it is sometimes because everything has to be perfectly in scale or its very noticeable. When you add tons of details, if something is a little bit out here or there, it's harder to see because the shape is more irregular. Just my two cents!

@LassetUnsSpielen 2 месяца назад

I agree. a beginner should always start with a fantasy creature as there are no "set rules". he should also have started with way more wood, he was so scared of carving anything away at all. that piece on the shark's cheek was bothering me the whole time

Looks sick! The scale is a bit off like you mentioned, but the waves and the detailing on the head more than make up for it. Really incredible first go at it!

@user-mj7tc9br6x 11 месяцев назад

@ScamstinCrew Год назад

I think you should re-atempt. I would do your pre-shaping on the band saw before attaching to the table top then you get a feel for scale and placement. Then once they are glued down finish the carving.

@jamesm7721 Год назад

@Mrsnichols1965 Год назад

Process modification: Glue up blocks, sketch on blocks, bandsaw to rough shape, glue to table surface. Just putting it out there. Maybe it works, maybe it doesn't, but the time savings in shaping are definitely there.

Do it again for sure! This was a ton of fun to watch. Just remember that the scale of the shark is very much set by the size and location of the eyes. Making them as big as you did makes the shark seem small or juvenile.

Nice job man. The best carvers I’ve seen scale down reference pictures and use that to outline everything, top , bottom , sides, then use reference pictures from all angles. I think it’s way too hard to do free style.
