Hi everyone, welcome to my power carving channel. My name is Matt (Hence the channels name) and I love carving. I mainly use a Dremel as my go to weapon of choice. I mainly carve small sculptures out of wood and broken skateboards.
I taught myself how to paint in my 20s and fell in love with creating all sorts of objects, in 2007 I went to art school and ended up doing a bachelor of fine arts (with Hons), specializing in Sculpture. Although I did not learn to sculpt wood at university the basic principles of making art applies to any medium. Thus, over the last 3 years I have been making wooden jewellery to sell, and on the side, I have been making other projects out of wood. I live in Christchurch, New Zealand with my wife in a small beach settlement, we live a simple life, but it is full of creativity.
We also foster dogs that have been rescued. This provides me with a little company in the daytime as it is sometimes a bit lonely in the workshop for 8 hours a day.

😂 love it ❤
Another great video 👍👍
Thanks for the visit Roy.
Our brand new dremel 3000 kit did not come with Collet AND none of the shafts fit thru the hole on the collet nut. What the heck? Guess we are going back to Ace Hdwe. Okay. Collet jammed up into collet nut so with it now loosened shank fits. Glad I took another look at it.
Got it, rings for each 16th of an inch, not how to identify the size of the shaft of the burrs?
Dang, Now I need to get a different collet for the tool
That's the life of power carvers. Always buying more tools. Cheers for watching 👍
@@MattCarves so true.

Found Collet, it was jammed up into collet nut so tight no tool shank would fit. Once I got it unjammed all was good. (Wife was “helping”, so that’s my excuse…..)
Good to hear you got it sorted 👍
@@MattCarves I looked at it BY MYSELF…
Good to see you breaking out the big tools! I always regret burning my larger carvings too, never works for me but you brought it back to make a great wizard!
Cheers Claire. Yeah it looked terrible sanded it back for ages. Probably will stick to wood dyes in the future. Hope your well and enjoying summer ☀️
Where you buy those bits ?
Here is an Affilate link for them 10 Luo ke 7 Pcs Diamond Cutting Burr, 1/8" Shank amzn.to/4aXX3bQ

Another winning carving. Very nice Matt. I have been doing some carvings in Red cedar after I burn the logs (Shou Sugi Ban). The color contest is amazing I have made a few videos on the carvings. I’d really like to see you do some carving with this material. I’d really like to see what you could make from this!!
Very cool! I just looked at your video. It got me thinking for sure. 👍😊
I just bought some red feeder for carving. I would really like to see your videos but can't seem to find the link to it.
