-Simple ,fun and easy is the name of the game today. Carving a simple mushroom in a found stick or dowel does not take a great artist to do but what it is is a fun and relaxing thing to do to enjoy your time outside or just relax wherever you are

How is your whittling going man?
Hi! Im a 27 year old woman from Wisconsin and ever since I was a kid I wanted to wood carve. A dream once forgotten but now I'm taking a hiatus from my other lived hobbies and I rediscovered wood carving! Your video is one of many I've watched in the last few days. However, your video is my favorite for the simple fact that I feel like I'm right there next to you, enjoying coffee, the sounds of nature and just hanging out with a buddy. Great video sir! I can't wait to look at your other videos!
19 year old whittler here, we’re keeping the art form going! Your videos are a HUGE help I love them all. Thank you brother
I keep coming back to your video,very relaxing, great to see someone making something look easy.
Doug, I am so happy your doing this series, I have a 10 year old grandson that loves carving and we spend a lot of time together carving. We have watched your videos and they are perfect for him and me! Thank you
Dennis so glad your grandson and you are bonding over carving,Doug is a great mentor.
One of my grandson’s was carving with me ,he really liked it ,getting good as well .Then one day a few years later , he kissed a girl 😒.
Well he’s still the best, we don’t carve any more.😔.so take some pic of ya guys having fun .😇🇺🇸

Ben, thanks! We do get picture and I figure I have a few years before girls come along!😅 He wants to join the local carving club and they are putting on a 6 week beginners class in October. He asked me if I would go and take him, I told him nothing would make me more happy! Have a great day!

Ty, Enjoy. Don’t forget to save the first carving , u ya o compare down the road .
Btw have ya heard of put pepper on a cut , it coagulate the blood quicker. No it doesn’t burn , just the black pepper packets ya get a Resturant work well . A Dr. Was amazed how well the cut healed , no need for sutures.👍

awesome stuff so much healthier and bettet then the phone 👍❤️
Every piece of wood has something in it…..you just have to find it. Old carvers never die, we just whittle away. 👍 started carving at the young age of 30 yrs old….36 years later I am still at it carving song birds, birds of prey and ducks. Enjoy watching your videos Doug…..keep up the good work. 👍🇺🇸
Those slits would be called “gills” Doug. I was wondering if you were going to add them, with a v-tool or gouge…and you did! Great job and fun little carving! Thank You as always.
Thank you , Mr Doug .

Top Vidio 👍 thanks for sharing..! Always succses.. greeting from Indonesian traditonal gold prospecting 🇮🇩⚒️⛏️👍👍
Your so lucky to be surrounded by raw wilderness! Here in the UK it's virtually none existent and what is about is in poor condition. Enjoy what you have and protect it.
plenty woods and forests up in Scotland :)
Wow I'd disagree here! South England is full of beautiful countryside I can only presume you live in a midlands city? Bet you can find a forest if you went north or south for a half hour...
@@marca5883 Your right there is! But they're all very very small and insignificant compared to what Doug has around him. UK forests are in poor condition meaning they don't always have a thriving ecosystem from the smallest insect to the largest mammal. They often have large roads cutting through them also. Did you know we're the worst country for tree cover in the whole of the G7 countries. It's about to get alot worse aswell with all the large infrastructure projects these busy bodies are passing through aswell as the cost of living crisis that's caused a rise in log burners which guess what = more trees for the chop.
We don't even have a single stream or river that's passed a clean bill of health, they're literally all polluted.

👍 thanks again Doug !
I love that you have woods if I want trees it's an hour drive and then the trees are still dead! But that is the cost of living in the desert of Arizona.............Be well and be safe..🪚🔪🪓
Thans you Doug for these nice mushroom examples. The carves beneeth the head are in Dutch called "plaatjes".
I will be 23 this year I been watching your videos and just bought myself a beavercraft knife and strop and I’m ready to have a house full of carvings lol thank you for your great advice and teachings sir I’ll put some dowels I have to good use.
I'm 25 years old and started carving 4 years ago when I found your channel! I'm absolutely obsessed with it.
I'm just short of 60 and only have shop bought wood 🙃 so I'm grateful for your help
I've been on a mushroom carving frenzy for about a month. Some of them have turned out quite well. Time to put some color on them now. And then give them away. Lol. Brings smile when people get free hand carved things. Best part of a project.
Hand made gifts are from the heart not the check book!!!
67 years old here, my 13 year old granddaughter has become interested in carving. I'm thrilled!!
Cool thing about mushrooms - impossible to get it wrong!
Sir your the best
Brilliant. Now I’ve gotta carve a mushroom.
Thank you.
My granddaughter likes mushrooms so I think I think I will carve her a mushroom! Thanks for the ideas Doug!
I started wittling when I was 14 I’m 15 now and I’m really enjoying it and really glad I found your channel
Great video doug I've been into art all my life , but after our daughter passed away I came across you on CZcams and I started whittling as a hobby it has kept me same and keeps me busy I love it thank you so much . I'm 61 now and from Scotland and I think what you say about getting kids into it would be great . Keep your amazing video's coming ❤️
Great tutorial as always. Would love to see a video from you on carving that Morel mushroom. Any chance ?
good to share time with FIN and you.
fantastic Doug!
Thanks!
My son just had our first grandbaby and I can't wait til I can teach him whittling, wood carving and woodworking.
You sit on that bench but once a year Doug. Occasionally I don't know if it's the winter or the fall deer running through the woods you've filmed that I was wondering what happened to the bird boxes that you made and put on the trees did any owls ever move in, your whittling is always a pleasure to watch.
I’m 26, and you sir have literally grabbed my interest and are holding on for dear life 😂 my stuff is arriving tomorrow I ordered some beaver craft tools and such, very inspired, and very excited to get going !! I love your videos
Trappers basket for the win!!! I have begun to use mine more and more. Best “backpack” ever. 👍
How appropriate right now. I am a fungi fan and just thinking about making a new character for my collection. Love your work.
These look great Doug!
I wish I could carve a mushroom and have a coffee with you in the bush! You just seem like the kind of people I need in life! Thank youuu
I'm 28, from inner city Chicago, and I love wood carving!
great video like when you carve in the bush awesome little mushroom thks Doug
Hi Doug just got your message about a offer we were gone for a few days not sure what it's about
14 yrold whittler here just recently whittled my cutlery set and have been delving into some bush crafty stuff i made a backpack frame out of wood and cordage i made and used an old sack as the bag its so much fun
Great and fun carving, I did a bunch of your little mushrooms with the faces, I like those to
I really like these kind of videos. It just relaxing and feels doable. Many thanks
Great carving and good advice. I was convinced I didn't need a glove but happened to be wearing one when the blade slipped and caught the joint of my finger hard. Closed my eyes convinced my finger would be floating in the glove but apart from the top layer of skin going it was all good! Really enjoy your videos.
glove saved me too great advice
Thanks for sharing your experience Scott - “ a word to the wise is sufficient” 😛 p.s. please remind me again and again 😝🙏
I'm 26 and got hooked into the hobby watching your videos. Love the mushrooms was funny i was just thinking of doing one the other day then here comes Doug with a video giving me great inspiration on how to go about it :D
Looks like a lot of fun to do
I’m certainly hooked! Thanks for getting me started Doug.
believe they are called gills. very enjoyable carve!! many thanks Doug!
This was awesome! A man and his loyal companion chilling out in the wilderness together. Incredible carving tutorial! Cheers
Nothing I can say but....What a great video!
What a piece of heaven.
Awesome. Another nice carving video.
I moved from Ohio to Michigan to live with my mom. She's 91 years old and legally deaf with a cochlear implant. She lives by herself after my dad passed away on December 17, 2020. They would have been married 67 years on December 20, 2020. The "cabin" is located in a wooded area.
Nice and easy carving!!! Sweet !!! Nicely done!!!! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🪓🔪👍👍
Great carving and video.
Doug, you handle that carving knife like a surgeon handles a scalpel. You also have artist eyes and can see a figure inside of a chunk of wood trying to get out. You really do beautiful work.
I've been hoping for some coffee and carving. These are my favorite. Thanks!
Doug, maybe someone has already commented but the generic term for the section under the mushroom cap is 'Gills', some species have tubes for their spores. Great video BTW, I often make mushrooms on my lathe but am definately going to carve my next one - Thanks for your infectious enthusiasm for carving, I've watched them all!
28 years old and I just finished my lunch break carving a little tractor for my daughter. You've definitely inspired me and many others
I followed your penguin tutorial. My kid loved it.
Been selling little mushrooms and other carvings locally for a while and this has given me a lot of great advice.
Love it. Mushrooms are a fun carve, I always have a folding saw in my truck, for found branches. Thank you
Good thinking Tom I going to put a folding saw in my car as well 👍🇦🇺
@@frankhavinh9066 it’s fun when you carve because any tree, branch , drift wood all have new meaning 😂
Sometimes as fun as carving.
Fun idea. Your dog seems so calm, what a nice pet
Great way to spend time in the forest on a nice day. I like doing in the the fall. 🙂
Oauu super 👍👋
I just found your videos, and I really like watching you work! I'm 27, and just got my first set of knives. Watching you makes me excited to get started!
Absolutely brilliant. You are a Genius.
You got me into carving last November now an old friend of mine who is now retired is getting into it after i gave him some mushrooms and Easter Island Heads.
Thanks to you he has now a new hobby. I would also like to get younger folk whittling.
Love your work and videos. Stay safe buddy.
Doug I think the under part-is called gills. Not for sure but that is what I think.
Hey Doug l love mushrooms especially the edible kind, awesome and thanks for sharing!😎😎😎👍👍👍🤩🤩🤩💯💯💯✅✅✅
I'm a 25 y/o woman and just got into whittling (: I've always been interested, but finally had the opportunity to get a nice little begginner knife set! I love your videos
Outstanding as always Doug. I think you have inspired me to carve a mushroom themed chess set for a friend. I think if I get rolling now I maybe done in time for Christmas. If not he will get it for his birthday!
I agree we need to expose more younger folks to the joy of doing this. The ones that jump on board as youngsters will still be enjoying it when they retire someday.
Not exactly young at 42 but watching your channel started me wanting to carve during lick down. I love it, I'm still trying to build up my hand strength as it seems to always make my thumb joint swell up but I'm proud of what I've made and always look forward to your tutorials to help me!! Just wanted to say thank you for introducing me to this wonderful hobby! X
30 and learning to carve now - love these videos as motivation, thanks!
Your Dog has a lovely life as well lovely
Hey Doug, greeting from one of the younger ones! I'm 29 years old and carving since 2018, and you really got me hooked to this lovely passion! Love all your videos and the effort you put in the channel! This video was close to the great carving and coffee videos!
Same age same passion here!
@@Alberto1993 Nice to hear that!
I got you beat at 15 lmao
@@Alberto1993 high five for the 29 yo's! brand new at this, carved a little fox and gave it as a xmas present!
Doug, I'm not sure if you read the comments on your videos but you have helped me tremendously! I've been struggling lately with life junk and its really cluttered my mind and caused me to seep back into a depression state. Carving has helped me declutter my mind so much!! It started with one of your videos, the sounds of the wood being carved and your amazingly calm and peaceful demeanor really spoke to me and i've been carving in my free time lately. It has really helped my mental state in a way I never expected. So, thank you so much for what you do, it goes much farther than you might think! Keep it up and stay peaceful!
Thank you sir for two things. 1 being your demeanor and 2 your consideration for making carving easy and fun. I have watched almost all of your videos and enjoy the calmness and clear thought it brings. Please keep coming up with these awesome carves.
I love my coffee ☕️ but if I'm Sweating I can't add a hot drink to it. Everyone is different. Nice carve Doug love your work.
Thanks for taking the time to share. The tutorials inspire me to take your carvings and make my version of it. 👍🏻
The bush, Billy tea and carving.... bliss. 👍🏻
Love the videos, Doug! So laid back and relaxed. I’ve scrolled through the comments and didn’t see it, but the ribs on the underside of the mushroom cap are called the gills…
V Tool is making GILLS. Love your channel!
As you carved I could imagine carving a girl out of the wood . She could have been a little mushroom girl 😊 The way it belled out at the bottom could have been the bottom of her skirt. Thank you for such a delightful but simple carve that gave me an idea!!❤👍😊
Thanks for the video. 71 on Sunday.
Agreed, your easy quick whittles are fun, satisfying and a great way to get the "kids" interested. Thank you.
Looks like fun! Good to see Finnigan, especially on International Dog Day!
Perfect! I love it. Thank you, so much, for sharing your carving lessons.
LOL I started carving after watching one of Doug's video a few years ago. Since then I've carved about 30 mushroom. It's the only thing I can carve with my weak, now arthritic, old hand.
Doug I love to see how to carve a moral mushroom with just a knife next I carve wood spirits in my mushrooms im not good as you but I'm getting there greetings from uk 👍🇬🇧🦊🐾
Great carving and explaining. All the best. Peace and Good Fortune and Good Health to you and your family.
Great video! I'm 19 year's old and just started carving. My 93 year old neighbor carved his whole life and did some amazing stuff. I showed him my first spoon and he was really proud of my work and now he shows me his techniques
Great tutorial Doug, thanks - just what I need as a beginner although not many forests left in the U.K. as Sam said.
Hey Doug! Writing from tropical Costa Rica here. Love your videos, your tutorials and recommendations! Starting this carving adventure with this suggestion of a project. Hope it comes out as great as yours. P.S: PLEASE keep on going with the super material! Helps me a lot with mental health and explore creativity. Thanks a ton!
I absolutely love your carvings 🍄🍄🍄🍄
Nice whittling as always! Well explained! So fun to watch!
I love your video's Doug.
I have just spent the weekend with my Scout group camping and in their spare time all they wanted to do was carve and by chance mushrooms were the flavor for the weekend.
34 years old here. Love your channel already. Finally found what I was looking for. So excited to do more carving once I go on vacation 🙂
When I watched you carve the large wood spirits, I thought the faces were terrific. I also thought they were not for me - I did not want to invest in larger tools and I simply prefer smaller caricatures. However, when I watched you carve a small wood spirit in a stick, I decided to try one. Thank you so much for the fabulous tutorials. You got me started on this great hobby and you have been my number one mentor ever since. I now completely understand the appeal of whittling wood spirits in a “found” piece of wood. God bless.
Oops…almost forgot, love the mushrooms too. Fun video and fun carvings. Thanks.
Love see you carving and replicate it by myself but I really really love your coffe and carving. Nothing better.
Love your videos Doug! I believe the detail you put on the underside of this mushroom with your v tool are called veins or gills depending on the species of mushroom!😊 keep up the great content sir! Love your channel!🙏
Your tutorials got me into carving, Doug. Love the variety of the work you do and the dowel/round stick series is great. Thanks...
Great job Doug! Thanks bud.
I'm just over 30, and I'm loving your videos, it gives me so much more confidence in my own carvings, when you say it's good just to carve little simple things, it doesn't always have to be super complex to be skilled ♥
I’m going to try to get my grandsons into carving when they get l little older.. and yes it has changed my life as well… I’m so glad I stumbled onto your channel and thank you Doug.
