Use Multiple Woods in a Carving with Joinery
Brief demonstration of how I use multiple woods with a Kirby carving, using NZ Totara and Sapele. I love doing this to achieve a natural contrast in colour and texture in my pieces whilst retaining the wooden aesthetic. Here I'm using Starbond Gap Filler Thick CA Glue, along with their accelerator. Full disclosure, Starbond sent me this product for free, however I only use products I actually like.

So getting personal in this one. I'm stuck in the USA in the middle of this Coronavirus pandemic halfway through a 6 month trip in a camper van that we built ourselves while still living in Canada.

Finishing your Woodcarvings with Odies Oil
zhlédnutí 4,7KPřed 4 lety
In this video we're covering one of my favourite new finishes, Odies Oil, and how to use it for Woodcarvings and wooden figures. Odies is a hardwax oil (Like Osmo, Rubio etc) and works by applying and then buffing off to a nice polish, giving a real natural finish. This is pretty different compared to traditional finishing methods and works great when you have natural hardwoods on display. The ...

None of these tools need to be expensive, and the best way carve on a budget is to only buy the tools that...

How to Carve a Maori Wooden Twist Pendant
Very beautiful 🥰
Thank for this video. Was asked to carve some wooden balls and spoons for a children's bare-foot-obstacle-course. The course has to been navigated with the spoon in hand while keeping the ball on the spoon the whole time. Spoons, I make all the time but a round ball was my first. Went the geometric route instead of the cylinder and i think the cylinder is easier to keep track of where you are (as in how much is there still to cut away). The technique for feeling the high-points and knocking them down works very well. Made three knife-handles with it by starting with a rectangular piece; holding it in your hand like you would use it as a handle; noticing the sharp corners and everything that didn't feel comfortable to my hand and cut that bit off; rinse repeat. After a few thousand fittings and cuttings, ended up with knife-handles that perfectly fit my left hand.
Maravilhoso. Parabéns pelo seu trabalho.
In Australia Jelutong wood from South East Asia is readily available.

Maybe you can help me, I'm trying to figure out how to inlay a tear drop shaped object into a peice of ebony wood as a gift for my wife. Normally im a power tool guy, but im stuck on this. Im worried a power yool even a Dremel wont be edge accurate for this odd 3d shaped inlay. im setting a peice of lapis into a square of ebony the top center of a jewelry box made of olive wood. But i am stuck on how to do it. The ebony is square so no problems on that i can use my router table to get that to a flawless fit... But thats why i chose that way in addition of the nice contrast i hope to get between the light olive wood and the dark ebony and the lapis
Love it thank u❤❤❤
Love this. I have quite a lot of 25mm x 25mm basswood and limewood. I'm going to see if I can scsle it down. I'm fairly new to this and like yiur style and presentation. Would love to see a few more tutorials.
Send me plans
Great clip mate! Thank you
I would suggest using tools that have received the most reviews. Just like with art, the issue is not the painter but the brushes and paints. If you want to achieve excellent results quickly, don't limit yourself to the 'beginner' section..
i have decided im going to start whittling. im gonna get the beavercraft kit and im gonna try and carve all 151 original pokémons
Just wondering, what wood did you use, and what was the dimensions of the wood
Wow thats awesome!
21.45 , thanks enjoyed your video 👍
I would have put a strop before a saw.... great list though!
I want to make a table where the legs protrude through the top and are roughly rounded on top. This was helpful. Thanks.
Beautifuls pieces❤
Oof, the price of those diamond plates though! Lol. Good video though; thank you!
I LOVE that you carved the hat separately! Most other carving videos that include a hat on a character always carve the hat out of the same solid piece as the figure and that irks me for some reason lol
this e cuts are sooooooooo smooth
man this guy is good
Why not a small plane to take the corners down?
Fantastic video thanks for showing every step so clearly. Is there anything wrong in just a layer or two of wax furniture polish as a sealant. I used to use that on my pyrography. Im senitive to smells and spray varnish is too much for me.
What wood did you use so i can make that beautiful sculpture
I have the Patience..cant wait for my set..maybe my first YT video
Very Nice work...ordered me a 3 piece flexcut starter set cant wait!
Would 1000 and 6000 combination grid stone achieve the same result as yours 1000 & 8000 combination ?
This is the single most useful carving tutorial I've seen, thank you!
Can’t understand anything you say,, echo and music playing while you talk
The "it's a condom for your knives" line made me giggle and got a sub from me. Great video and an easy solution I didn't think of. Eventually I'll probably make some small leather sheaths, but this is great for a quick and dirty cover.
Thank you so much for posting. I just made my son's friend very happy. I made a machine with the basketball Internet but I use your video to make the ball. I want you to know that you managed to put a smile on a teenager's face. That's what I have to do nowadays
Super👍

My dad always said ,"blade always away from body, unless you like to sit in the ER for 6 hours"
Can you show what you carved, it looked adorable I used butternut wood that was given to me by a man that carved birds. Is that a good type of wood. It seems to be but it gets kind of furry
What kind of woos do you use for your work?
