New Ryobi Power Carver Review

- The new Ryobi battery operated power carver has allot of bang for the buck. The gouges that are included with the kit are not the greatest but will perform after being sharpened. The battery life has yet to be determined so that is something to try and see how long it will really last when carving.

You are going to get better results if you clamp or secure the wood. Power carvers work by vibrating, so when you press the cutter into unsecured wood, the wood starts vibrating along with it and it either won't work or won't work very well.
I agree with your comment on using clamps. For testing purposes in this video, there was no need to clamp the wood as I wanted to see if the factory edge on the bits were sharp and cut with very little pressure, and as you can see there was no way those would cut anything, clamped or not. Ryobi should make sure the bits are sharp so it truly could be used right out of the box.
Just purchased this on the back Friday sale and it was a good deal so couldn’t pass it up. So awesome to hear and thank you sir for taking the time to make this video. Much love and God bless!
THANK YOU for a great video. I'm going to sharpen up some bits. I'm new to this - so this kind of video helps a ton.
Good illustration on how sharp tools work best. Thanks. I have not used mine yet, but will sharpen the chisels before I do.
I thought I was using it wrong. Thanks. I'm about to go sharpen the bits
Damn good job sharpening them man. A world of difference..
I was hoping you would also show one or two bits from the Power Gouge Set. So they fit the Ryobis? Great video, too. I subscribed with notifications as I really like your content! You are indeed an artist! 😊
I Use My Ryobi Rotary Tool For Making Spoons & Other Things Too. I Even Used It To Carve

Sharpening definitely made a world of difference
Yes it did, I really did not have to work too much at them to be sharp. The factory edge just is not enough.
Hi Chris ... thanks for the review! ... will the flexcut gouges fit this tool? ... thanks!
The Flexcut power gouges will fit this, I am not sure about the travel gouges that have the interchangeable handle.
How long do the batteries last before losing power?
How is this working out for you? I picked one up yesterday on clearance.
For the times I have been using it, it seems to help a little when it comes to general wood removal. I still use hand tools for fine detail work. The battery life is okay for what I have been doing with it.
4:18 Oh look, you didn't have to mess up the tool
Hello sir.... where can I get this machine in india
Brand new tool, with a purpose made wrench right there and you decide to round the collet nut with pliers????
One can tighten a collet with pliers without rounding the corners. You just need to use a little care, is all.
@BradfordGuy and you can use a crescent wrench as a hammer or a screwdriver as a pry bar, but it is neither the optimal choice nor what those tools were designed for. We have all used pliers in a pinch but it's never the correct tool to preserve the nut.
not a fan of battery style tools . i have been interested in a power carver but tbh this is disappointing that ryobi could not even take the time to sharpen the bits just goes to show the level of care taken to insure a quality tool that people would love . when i carve i carve in alot of small detail so the fact it is so big would hinder my work . have the same issue with my rotary power carver . it gets crazy detail but the grip is way to big . but if this had a flex shaft and a small pen style handle grip it might be ok . but the battery is to small and wont last long . im guessing the inner parts are plastic and will wear out pretty fast . the fact that it does not move till you press on it leaves more room for it to wear out faster it should have a permeant connection . the most impressive part of this whole video was the flex cut bits . ryobi needs to step up there game . great review i enjoyed it . work safe
Not so much of a review more of an unboxing
Not a tool I would invest in. Sorry!
It is not for everyone, it has its advantages and disadvantages.
