Just having fun while trying to learn something new! I also needed a bent carving gouge and couldn't be happier with how well it worked!
As always I'm happy to answer any questions.

To me, this channel is by far the most enjoyable one nowadays when it comes to woodworking. Congratulations.
Making your own tools is about the coolest thing someone can do.
That turned out great, love the handle jig
Thanks very much Paul! :)
Great job! Making my own hand tools is something I find personally satisfying. Watching others do the same is also a joy. Thanks for sharing.
That hexagonal cutting jig is brilliant. Nice work, that.
That handle jig is brilliant!
The best gouge making tutorial online. I have searched a few times per year over the past decade or more.... for gouge making tutorials. This is by far the best one for making traditional style gouges. Your method is almost identical to mine.... but I would have killed for this video ten years ago. It took my a out 8 or so years to get to this method. On and off interest every few months. Trying to figure out how to make a traditional gouge (octagonal handle, bolster, etc...) and this is how I do it now. Thanks for the video!
What I can say Neil, is you are a very ingenious at making jigs, as well of course your crafting skills are great to watch. Another great PASK makes video inspiring anyone who loves wood working and in general tinkering about.
That handle cutting jig is pure genius.
That handle jig is brilliant.
I don't know what was better: the handle maker tip or saving the Tasmanian devil. Two for the price of 1!
Exactly what I thought :-)
That handle fixture is genius!
Glad you liked it! :)
The dinosaur/devil surgery made me ridiculously happy for reasons that are unclear to me. Thanks for sharing.
No worries - glad you enjoyed it! :)
And now you have a blacksmithing/metalworking Channel. Perfect!
The jig you made for making the handles was a fantastic idea. Great looking gouge Neil.
Such a smart jig for making the handles!
Hand Tools Are Cool!
Excellent work as usual. In an era when tools are mass produced, available 24/7 and often with 'chinesium' (AVE™) materials, it is satisfying to see someone actually taking the time to create something from scratch. Once again, thank you for sharing, all the best.
Thanks very much Alfonso! Making tools isn't for everyone but I get a lot of enjoyment out of both making them and using them! :)
I was going to like it just for the handle jig, but saving that Tasmanian devil from the T-Rex really sealed the deal! Nice work... as always. I really look forward to all of your videos.
I love that handle jig. That will be added to my shop collection in the near future. This is just one of the many reasons I love your channel...even when the topic isn't something I think I'll use (I don't have any need for a gouge...yet), I always find something very practical I can apply to my shop.
That my friend is a genious Jig! The Gouge is darn smart too, but I really like the jig...
mate, the bandsaw trick is true genius... I'm in awe!!! thank you for sharing.
No worries mate - glad you liked it! :)
Genius +craftmanship = pask makes 😎
This is the first video of yours that I've watched, and as a person who's learning blacksmithing and wood carving, I'm doubly pumped! Your swage block and fullering pipes were great! Thanks for the video; can't wait to try to make a curved gouge of my own. Thanks!
That's a beautifully imperfect gouge. I think it's perfect. Something beautiful for the kids with store bought gouges to envy.
Impressive Chap, excellent job on the gouge. Your a smart boy. Thank you for sharing your expertise. 👍👍👍
That jig for making the handles is slick! Nice work. Thanks for sharing!
Nice build! I've often wondered how to go about making my own carving tools, though I've mostly thought about stoneworking chisels, feathers etc.
Tools aside, I've saved numerous toys of my nieces from the bin, though admittedly it's to replace over tightened springs or broken plastic gearing, but never a swallowed devil recovery.
I did do a surgery to revive the battery on an Elsa doll. I'm sure my sister loved it when her little people came back home with a fully functional singing doll =D
Thanks mate! It's quite a nice feeling when you save a kids toy! :)
Beautiful work, loved the jig for the handle!
Thanks mate! Glad you liked the jig, it's simple but does the job! :)
Agree good job, and the handle jig is awesome. I will make one.
Great work Neil! Loved the handle jig you made and the bowl turned out pretty fantastic! Kudos to you for making your own tools! Make all-the-things!
Thanks Erik - glad you liked the jig! I didn't put any thought into the bowl and it looked much better when I carved it out to the edges! :)
lol, I watched how you doing the Bent Carving thing, I said OK, I'll add it to my to-do list. However, when I saw the jig for the handle, that triggered my senses, and I'm gonna do it first thing in the morning. Many thanks for the video. Cheers mate.
That's great to hear! :)
Elegant and ingenious handle-cutting jig
The handle jig is great, and I also like how you made a swage block with wood and a metal tube. This gives me hope that I can swage some gouges without buying an expensive swage block.
That's a very nice looking gouge. The handle jig is very clever. I'll have to make one of those. Great video as always.
You are a brave man..ive always wanted to make a gouge. Must have been difficult trying to forge the elegant curves of a bent gouge. Looks like you have made a 'long bent' gouge (as it's traditionally called, in uk ) as opposed to a 'short bent' which is more tightly curved at the working end. I mainly use my 80+ gouges for finishing cuts these days.. got too many carving burrs and grinders with arbortech things attached!
Thanks Jules! The curves aren't perfect and that's where I will try and improve, however I made sure the first inch and half or so was good! The first gouge I showed, made from the old file, has a very tight bend. I have arbortech attachments for my grinder too and I like using them on bigger projects but I enjoy carving by hand so much more! No dust or noise! :)
@@PaskMakes yeah, i wish i had more patience to carve with hand tools like i did when i was young. Maybe I'll try to go back to that..just for one project...and i may get hooked on the quiet and more meditative nature of using hand tools : ) You did well with that gouge. I'd love to show you my favourite gouges..made by S. J. and J.B.. Addis in Sheffield, England in the 1830's..got quite a lot of them which i bought for pennies at 'boot sales' (as we call them in uk!) 30-35 years ago. They are real treasures, and the finest steel : )
Your gouge collection sounds awesome, I'm very envious, I love old tools! :)
Oh hell I started watching your videos from the scrapwood challenge. Not seeing that intro was a shock. But I love the idea of a handmade gouge. Excellent work!
erik
Thanks Joshua! Next video should be a Scrapwood Challenge! :)
When it comes down to ingenuity and craftsmanship: Pask Makes, wins hands down. Love what you do! 😀
I lift my hat for you Pask!
You seems to be such a humble guy and I'm really impressed with all your knowledge and ideas. There is only one word to describe you and what you are sharing: Inspiring
Keep up the good work!
/Best wishes from Sweden
I've made a number of gouges by forging. I would make a disk or donut former to the shape of the inside curve of your gouge. A hard wood would be fine. Then heat the tool steel and tap the steel to take the shape of the form. This reduces the denting of the inner steel curve, which is the hardest part to grind true after wards. The inner curve must be smooth to keep an edge and I prioritize the quality of that surface. Following a disk shape for you here gives you a S curve and gouge shape all in one. Just bend the tang back the other way to finish. I find bending using formers make the most professional tools. Hammering is fun but lumpy. The aim here a a great tool, not a forging adventure. I would also probably harden only half of what you did. You will never get to use (sharpen down) all that tool and having a stronger portion say 3/4 of the total length, softer but stronger gives me peace of mind if I have to hit the handle with a mallet.
Great idea for the handle jig. Nice job on the gouge. Darlington, South Carolina USA
When I watched the Rubik’s cube video I thought that chisel was sharp and very useful...watching this video explains why, what a brilliant build and one I may try myself (though no metal work equipment)
Well done my friend, a very useful tool in the carving area...🏆👍🏼😊
Great job handel jig is super idea. Man if’n it works as well as demoed you have a super tool. Nice finish!!
Love the handle jig , so simple yet so useful
Cool bandsaw jig. It's getting some positive comments
Pask Makes - You always show us something interesting ... and it also makes our hair stand on end when you bring your hands without gloves to the machines. A cordial greeting for you from Spain. --- Usted siempre nos muestra algo interesante... y además nos pone los pelos de punta cuando acerca sus manos sin guantes a las máquinas. Un saludo cordial para usted desde España.
Gracias! :)
earned yourself a subscriber with that octagon jig
".. but i'm enjoying it .." - that just about sums it up!
You are amazing! The longer I watch you the more I'm convinced about that. Thank you for sharing!
Your one talented fella .that's one hell of a gouge and you make the sharpening look easy lol
Loved the dinosaur surgery addition. I’m often bringing my kids toys into the shop for repairs. For me, it’s another excuse to get some shop time 😊
The handle jig is a wonder, thanks for sharing.
Your video has taught me a lot, thank you.
Watching and enjoy from Greece every video, a lot to learn every time, about the jig with the half cylinder you may hold it with some screws maybe in that wooden base for some more permanent use and stability I think, thank you for sharing this and keep going mate !
Thanks very much - glad you're enjoying the videos! After using that jig I've thought of better ways of doing it! :)
@@PaskMakes I am pretty sure you did , it's great when you see something and lots of new ideas come into your mind, thank YOU!
Love the handle jig. Great work.
That was super entertaining and might be awesome project for my kid in the future
I love how simple that jig is, well done on the project
Nice job! I make my gouges and chisels from recycled coil spring. Its great steel and usually cheap or free. Great video!
Thanks George! I made a quick carving knife from coil steel a couple of weeks ago, it came out pretty good but it was difficult to anneal properly. I'm going to try and anneal it in vermiculite next time and see if that helps! :)
@@PaskMakes I use vermiculite and perlite mixed in a pail to anneal stuff. It works great.
brilliant work! the forging part is mesmerising. once i get a garden/garage/space that isn't in a flat i'll have a go at that for sure
...and another jig idea to remember. Great stuff, mate. Hoping to be able to see some more carving of yours.
Interesting forging techniques. I use a mandrel made from a wrist pin from a diesel engine rebuild.to do all of the curves. My anvil is a 36" piece of railroad track.
Excellent video, I really liked the bandsaw jig!
Love your handle jig on the bandsaw!
The Gouge looks great as well!
Thanks mate! :)
Watching this makes me want a forge. Really nice work, keep it up!
Just came back to this video and find it is one of your best. A lovely tool, clewer jig AND a saved devil all in one! Keep up the good work ;-)
That handle jig is brilliant
The octagonal handle jig is great, I'd love to see a decagon shaping one. Thanks for the great content chum :)
No worries Pete! I was going to make this jig more elaborate with a disc at the front with pin locations to lock in position for each face of the handle, then I decided to keep it more simple. Something like that would work for a decagon! :)
I think this is absolutely amazing!😊 one of these days I’ll get up the nerve to jump into making my own hand carving tools😁 super awesome my friend!!👊💚☘️
Thanks very much Jed! You should give it a go, you already have the forge if I remember correctly! :)
You do remember correctly!! I think I just may😁😊
Wow man, you really are a "Jack Of All Trades" aye! A veterinarian surgeon too boot 👍
Great make on the tool and bowl, I liked the re-do on the bowl 👌
Thanks very much Bill! :)
Your octagonal jig is brilliant! I'm going out to my shop and making one of those jigs this afternoon.
That jig is pure gold. Steel really but you get what I mean.
Again, i always enjoy your work young man,William
That's great I love it. Even the jig for making the handle is brilliant!
Well done.
I know I'm late to the party, but I just wanted to say "good job" on that gouge. I made one before, but I like the shape of yours a lot better. I'll give it a try.... Thanks! 👍🏻
When you said that you were using 1075 steel I had to go and google what the numbers referred to, so I learned something today! 🙂
I would make a socket.. flair out the end that you want the socket, and then roll it up till it touches. If your feeling like you must do it the right way, weld the seam, but it will work with a butted seam
Nice one. I don't have a bandsaw, but I think a jig like yours would probably be helpful for making octagons with hand tools as well. I'm gonna try it next time I need a handle.
that looks great man! favorite part about needing a new tool... just make it.
Whew! Pask is back
Respect - and the handle too. A verry nice and simple jig to get the handel. Br, Robert
I love ALL your projects..you are very talented and resourceful which I love the most..
Thanks very much Fifi! :)
Good show! Thanks for sharing your progress.
You do good things. Especially liked the handle jig. Thanks, Cheers, David.
I literally busted out laughing at the dinosaur running across the screen at the end! 😁
Love your videos. I get a lot of ideas from your projects. I'm wanting to incorporate metal work in with my woodworking as well so I really pay attention to your videos that include that. The barrel soft end mallet was awesome! Thanks a lot and keep`em coming! 👍
Thanks vey much Ron - glad the videos helpful to you! :)
Thanks for another great episode, love your tool making.
The handle jig's base plate with the inset for the blade was a real ah-ha! moment for me, it will be useful for a lot of bandsaw templates.
great result and nice jigs! the handles look fantastic!
Neil you are a fnarking genius!
Really enjoying the forge work.
Great to hear Donnie! :)
I do love the whimsy of your videos. Great project, turned out nice!
Wicked good! You have more great ideas than any ten people I know! Watch out for marauding Tazzies!
You always inspire Neil!
I'd take that piece of metal out of the kerf jig it'll work better same when making spoons we tend to just do it on a scrap piece of wood it will dish out just fine plus you loose a lot of heat really quickly you've given me heaps of tips I know this is late but hope my tip for you will come in handy
Very interesting, love the forge setup, seems to be working quite well.
It really is, I love it! :)
Awesome jig,I’ll make one tomorrow,thanks for sharing
No worries - glad it was helpful! :)
Looks good to me and I like the way the handle was made might try my hand at one
Great Neil, thanks for taking us on the 'learning curve journey' mate :)
No worries Rob - glad you enjoyed it! :)
You weld like I do! The grinding wheel as a finishing tool. ;-)
Is there another way! ;)
Normal wood challenge, normal wood challenge. It's wood, it's good, so let's make some cool stuff!
Turned out good, love it, looks like you've got a Gameco burner in your forge. I am going to make one of these gauges. Well done.
Thanks mate! Yes it's a GameCo burner, it's nice bit of kit! Great to hear you'll be making a gouge! :)
@@PaskMakes Finished it today bit large but not bad, just gotta get it sharp now, thanks for inspiring me.
Just doiing and trying
But the most important thing is
Doiing and making
After done 10 of these handmade you will improve
Until the best
Your best
And that is the most important
Thank‘s and never give up
Regards from Luxembourg 🇱🇺👍
Thanks very much! :)
Loved your jig. How creative!
