"Well hello again, out there in youtube-land" lmao. I loved that. It's so cute, but a perfect opener. I've been wanting to get some tips on carving a good walking stick because I want to replicate a witches staff from a TV show I like. Happy I found this gold.
Really great example for quickly removing material from the staff 👍 As a first purchase for projects like this would you recommend a grinder like you have here or a belt sander? Currently I’m just using hand tools.
For speed and efficiency I would recommend an angle grinder. I recently made a video about an attachment that I came across that allows me know to do most of my debarking inside my shop now without creating a big mess of scrap and dust. Here's the link to the one where I demo this in action a few weeks ago. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-nu1K_yB25NE.html I purchased this attachment at Harbor Freight but they can also be found on Amazon.
Nice video Dennis. The only thing was I couldn't hear what you were saying when you were taking the bark off as you had your back to the camera. Looking forward to Part 3 Take care Dennis. Cheers, Huw
