You have opened another door in my creative wood working. Thank you so much.
Geoff from Tasmania
I have never done texturing before, you have given me the inspiration to do some now. Thank you
Thanks for this insight ,so nice!
Outstanding ideas. Can't wait to try this on my projects. Thank you.
Thank you for a quick and informative video. I appreciate all of your examples that were shown on each segment. Very well done!
amazing.... kinda wasn't interested, but now inspired! good stuff!
Nice video, well organized and presented. The things that stand out for me are the importance of experimenting with different tools and types of wood, and having sharp tools. I also really liked the detail inside the butterfly wing.
That is presented exceptionally well. At 7 mins there are no wasted words. I've been woodworking all my life & thought about texturing & now will try something
I’m really excited about your ideas about adding texture! Definitely changing the way any work appears! Very unique style!
A very nice video by an extremely nice gentleman. Your clear language and ideas are a real pleasure. Thank you for sharing.
Wow, thank you so much for this rare video! I am truly inspired to try these techniques! 🎉❤
I cannot tell you how many paths just opened before me! I've done pottery and am just beginning to learn woodworking so this video showed me that I can actually combine my interests and even some tools haha thank you so much, great video and really well explained :)
Lots of great advice here, thanks for sharing this!
Thank you for the insights on texturing. I'm a furniture maker but do not do a lot of carving. Well done video.
Well done, Rob. I've downsized my workshop and have been looking for projects of smaller, more manageable proportions. Texturing will give some life and novelty my operations. And encourage me to improve my sharpening skills. Thank you.
Excellent video! I hope you have more available.
Wow! So many ideas i never thought of .
im so happy to see your video, before i knew this video i dont really mind of texturing stuff but ur video just open my mind, really useful
Thanks for posting, I must try these techniques.
nicely done . I'm playing around with texture and finish.thanks Rob
Thanks for sharing your years of experience and knowledge great job thanks
Excellent quick video
Opened up my imagination to so much more, thank you!
Very informative! Thanks for sharing!
You inspired me to try texturing to add tons of interest to projects 👍
Very well-made and informative video.
Very helpful! Thank you!
I’ve used those little metal leather stamps and punches that you can get from craft stores and places like that to do some texturing in wood. The best one was a combination of using two stamps that were meant to look like a basket weaved texture and it came out really nice. Depending on the wood you use, you may have to hit them a few times with a good heavy hammer to get the texture to really have some depth and dimension but you can really do some pretty neat things with those I’ve found.
Really adds that extra special touch to a piece. Would like to have seen more in-depth details. But thank you for design elements very cool.
Really enjoyed this. Thanks.
This is a amazing video Thankyou for the help
I am going to give this a shot on a future project. I've been experimenting with different finishes recently. You can get some interesting results using dyes or even marker.
Very useful. Many thanks
Such a cool idea. Definitely going to try this 🤙🏼🥳🎉
Great video, thanks.
Very informative makes me want to try it
Great tips, thank you
Thanks Rob, inspiring and insightful :) I l really love those uneven parallel lines, reminds me of Troika modernist pottery. Can't wait to try some of these techniques.
I textured the outside of a large, hand-carved English oak bowl some years ago, it started out great - I got a lovely feather-effect with a gouge or V-tool (I forget which now) but half way through I couldn't get that texture anymore, which meant I had to re-texture the whole outside of the bowl with a simpler texture, nice but also disappointing. I'm not sure what happened. In hindsight I suspect that it had something to do with the grain changing at the halfway point of the bowl, I thought I had accounted for that but perhaps something more "multi-dimensional" was happening and/or perhaps the gouge simply lost what I call "ultimate sharpness" or "Swedish sharpness" - perhaps the gouge just needed a strop (or hone?), after all it had just carved half of the outside of a large oak bowl. Or perhaps I just "lost it".
BTW I have noticed that, generally, women prefer my bowls to be smooth, and sometimes painted, but men prefer texture and/or tool marks. Both seem to like whacky shaped, "live edge" burl pieces - novelty I suppose.
It's so therapeutic just to see the process of wood texturing by hand. I don't have that type of patience.
Briliant video! I love working with wood, however I am beginner and many sites offer info about very complex ornamental wood carving. This is just what I was looking for. Thank you.
Glad you liked the video Lucy. Thanks for reaching out!
Interesting techniques, I had a lot of trouble trying to keep consistent depth when going across the grain but I think my chisel was far to large for what I wanted to do.
Thanks for sharing!
I have been searching for a way to add a sandblasted background appearance to my signs. This has given me a few ideas to attempt. Thanks!
really appreciated thus video. thanks
Wow. Never considered texturing the wood. Thanks!
I don't understand why you don't have more subs. I'd enjoy more how to videos from you. I'm new to woodworking and have been on YT alot trying to learn more. My grandfather was really great at all things wood and I wish I had been able to learn from him while he was still alive. I still have some of his projects and I'm learning some things from my dad. My dad can build beautiful things but my grandfather was an artist.
Interesting ideas.
Thanks
James
Thanks for your feedback James.
"An in perfect approach" I like that ,I like that a lot actually .thanks man
would you prefer an imperfect' approach?
Great video
muchas gracias Rob
Thank you, this is what I needed. Thsi Video has good structure of points. A lot of Interesting points (like Nr.5) and everything is explained....but shortly, favoring the attention span of the typical internet viewer.
I've done a few textured benches, stools etc, all with gouges. They came out wonderfully, but I didn't take too much notice of them. Now I'm doing 4 long benches and texturing the seats of each. Each is 5+ feet long, and old growth redwood. A difficult wood to carve for sure. But the fact that it is tight grain, all VG, and I'm going across the grain with a very sharp gouge, it's coming out quite well. Sort of looks like beautiful "adze" work. I'm looking forward to doing some more texturing afterwards. I might try one of those power carvers too, but I like the look of the gouges. I know most folks can't tell the difference, but...I can. thanks for the ideas here. Your comments about patience and not trying to be too "precise" are good ones, that I learned long ago. Thanks
20 linear feet of texturing - you've quite a bit of work cut out for you Paul. We'd love to see the results when done. All the best.
Cool, I subscribed and mashed the like button.
Thank you sir, I'll hit the suscribe button now!!! 🗜📐🛠👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👍🏻👏🏻👏🏻👊🏻😀
Beautiful
Lots of good ideas here TNX !!
Glad you like them!
All I can say is sometimes texturing goes against my grain. 😀 Good video. Lots of ideas.
Thank you!
Nice pun :P
Love it!!
Glad you liked it Marsha. Happy Woodworking!
I know I'm late to tell you, I really enjoyed this video and you teaching us the approach of your work on surfaces. Very insightful and inspiring! Can you tell me what you used on the lower half of the board in the thumbnail? Is it a ball peined hammer? It looks wider and smoother than carving. Very intriguing!
I think using a photo reference would help and sketch out the design before hand would give the wood worker a plan. Thanks for your video.
Thanks for the tip!
Finding perfection in imperfection, wabi-sabi (侘寂) was a beautiful philosophy that my aunt taught me in artistic as well as life pursuits.
Very good men 👍🏽
If there was option to show what numbering gouge chisel and tools were used, that would have been super helpful. Thanks!
Whats your favorite goouge for adding those overlaping almost scale like patterns?
How do I create a natural raised woodgrain effect? Something we would see in a board that has been sitting around for years. I’m so use to rough sanding wood, and finishing it with a fine grit, then making it perfect. How do I do the opposite and make it rough? My future sink vanity will be old and raw looking. Thanks
im gonna make a wooden climbing hold, would you recomend any pattern por hand skin adherence?
At 3:36 he uses a rotary tool to add texture but you can see that it’s rough between the circles, how can that be removed without taking away the detail? I do a lot of detailed carvings with a dremel and there tends to be stray fibers or tool marks and I’m not sure how I can sand it out without removing detail. Any tips?
At around 4:50 , the texture on the right...which size gouge did you use for that? Thanks for the video!
Sorry for the late reply. It was a gouge with a shallow sweep (not much curve to it) and it was about 1-1/4 to 1-1/2" wide.
2:08
Sounds like a tip from a video game tutorial
Although alot of people wont have rotary tools
I do have dremel and 7 other tools
Great video, but what I would love to know, is if you fill holes in the surface of timber with a filler (wood filler, epoxy etc.) and pigment, will this material simply drop out as the wood expands and contracts over time? For example, if you were to fill gouge cuts with say 2 pack wood filler and a natural pigment.
I don't think wood filler is meant for large cracks / holes / divots / recesses like many of the examples in this video. Filler is meant for the thin pores of wood. You could always try it, but I would bet that it won't work and will just fall off / out.
what did you use for the lines?
When your talking about making the lines imperfect to show it’s handmade the other half of that would have would looked like a hammered look you’d find on metal. How do you do that to the wood ? Thank You
With a wide slightly curved chisel.
Great to know simple tools can do this nice work.
However, when working on large surface areas (example covering a large wall section with textured wood) it will be extremely difficult. Does anyone have ideas of a machine or electric tool that can make textured patterns on wood (for DIY or commercial use)?
Sorry for the late reply. CNC machines can be programmed to create this (or any) sort of texture on a larger surface. I've also been in contact with someone who did this to a large dinning table, so it's not impossible to do this by hand. Takes some patience though! There are many different types of tools (power tools) that create a wide range of textures. It's just a matter of playing around to get the desired effect you want.
merci
Interesting , thanks.PS I am in Doug Fir country.. Doug Fir is not "soft", if anything, hard and brittle. I use it extensively.
Can you please recommend a really good make of carving chisels, I started with a cheap set and would like to advance, I'm in France.
Auriou, Henry Taylor, Pfeil, Ashely Iles and Two Cherries are all good brands.
@@canadianwoodworking Thank you for such a swift reply
Recently I’ve been experimenting with bleaching Wenge (even the cheapest thinnest bleach works really well) now I’m struggling to keep up with demand.
John Malkovich got into wood work!
That’s all interesting
6:09 is milk paint, right?
Yes. I carved the texture, painted it will milk paint, then used fine sandpaper to remove some of the paint.
Extra!
Subscribed. Good eye. That said, the stock music annoying. I’d recommend less jangly (less “stock”), or even better: silence.
SCHADE!
