The Dead Head Doll | An 18th Century Toy and Thoughts about Death | Memento Mori
Video, Carving and design © Ethan Yazel, 2023
Music: "Oh Death", by Dock Boggs, 1964
I’ve been studying early American artwork over this past year. The artwork created by the colonists is as fascinating to me as any fantasy world. Their world was uncomfortable and often brutal. Their possessions were needed to survive, but they were made as artfully as any contemporary artist would.
“Memento Mori” was a common notion on the frontier, illness, predators and seemingly endless war was always around the corner. Based on the representation of “Memento MorI” on folk art of the time, this drawing combines the lowly colonist with is flintlock rifle with modern notions of the “headless horseman”, o...

Making a Spring Loaded Patch Box Lid for an Isaac Haines inspired Flintlock Muzzleloader
Просмотров 17 тыс.3 года назад
A spring loaded patch box lid is a staple of golden age flintlock architecture, and in this video I show you how to make and inlet the lid spring as well as the lid latch spring. It is fascinating to me how complex the engineering on this mechanism is for being 250 years old. To think the original builders had all of this figured out and did it by window and candle light is amazing to me. If yo...

With our patchbox lid formed, it's time to finish the inletting for the rest of our patchbox hardware. Most of this video covers inletting the fins or side plates of the patch box. There is a lot of detail in these parts, inletting them takes time and patience. In the video I show you how to fix the level of your inlet with a simple piece of paper. I've made all of these patchbox parts from sta...
Making a Domed Patchbox for an Isaac Haines Inspired Flintlock Muzzleloader
Просмотров 4,8 тыс.3 года назад
As Mike continues this build, we share some of the process he went through to develop a domed Patchbox lid, as seen on early muzzleloaders. To do this, we make a form tool out of hard maple, first carving the negative half of the form, and then the positive half. Using thin brass sheet, we press and form the lid in an arbor press. Traditionally, forming this box may have been done with a hammer...

How to carve a Heart Bowl from Black Walnut | Part 1 | Green Woodworking
This is what happens when a craftsman fashions the mold. “I don’t know, it’s just by feel”. Yes, yes it is.
“What youre doing is just cheating the eye”. The universal lesson revealed. Seriously.
Making a trigger guard, even for a simple .22 bolt, is not that easy to do it right. Nice bending machine. Those aren’t cheap ! You have to be very good to make use of that bender. Difficult to visualize the dies and set up to accomplish shape
And I thought my shop was cluttered. Don't feel so bad now. Good job on the guard.
Forging cold steel
Incredible hands steadier than best surgeons
This is exactly what I was looking for, great vid!
❤
Nice to see a beginning to end project. Gonna watch the last one now. Thanks.
Absolutely fantastic. I’m new to carving , I’m about 3 years into my hobby . Last year I carved some Santa heads and sold them for pocket money to purchase some more tools . Watching your video to get inspiration to do something more adventurous. Brilliant carving , thanks for the upload 👍
Why weaken the stalk? Do you ever use a patch box?
Awesome
I love that tool, nice job!.
Looks like granite...
Great video. What is the tool called that you cut the taper with? Thanks
That’s some nice spoonage going on there 😊
How did you stain it?
that is a little too tricky for me,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
How did you shorten the barrel?
I felt that grunt at 3:05 with the kinda sorta 😂
A really nice job! Can you tell from an engraved pattern if it has been engraved by a left handed engraver? This would have been originally engraved by a hand graver presumably. Many thanks for posting this! Chris B.
id love to build a 25 caliber, however i can not find a bullet mold for one lol any suggestions
I Love watching you carve, so peaceful and relaxing to hear the wood and knife.....I hope you do some more carving, Amazing to watch the wood come to life.....Therapy just to watch you carve, thank you kindly for taking us with you to your carving room
Also design, drawn on protrusion for engraving.
Engraving on flat space is easy. Could you do engraving on a protrusion? Much Thanks.
Is there any other period pieces like this that you know of. Going to make some thing to decorate my log cabin.
What is the best way to keep that spoon knife as sharp as you have it? Wonderful job!
I really like the elegant simplicity of this.
You can use a hack saw blade for spring material...
The apple does not fall far from the tree. Beautiful piece Ethan.
Amazing, Ethan! That’s an heirloom piece, for sure!
Way cool
Very interesting
Such a great work. Truly amazing 😀😀
Thank you! Cheers!
It seems to me that it would be a better idea to put the vent pick on the lock side of the rifle , under the lock somewhere close to where it's needed. Not on the opposite side of the rifle by the cheek piece.
Good point. Under the cheek piece is a common historical example though.
What is the title of the gun reference book he is using?
What rifle reference book are you referring to in this video? Looks like it has good detailed photos.
This is the proof of the faulting of the YT algorithm... Two years before the video appears in my suggestion list. How can the algorithm prioritice a whole lot of other uniteresting crap, instead of this genuine interesting video? Thumbs up. Well done! No crappy music, just a good explaining why he preferes to do it, the way he do.
Thank you kindly.
Where did you find the little tube that holds the vent pick?
Great vid, Excellent work.
excellent!!
Can I ask what kind of wood are you carving this from? Excellent work by the way.
This is bass wood. Thank you
Great shooting, awesome group !!
Nice work beautiful
OMG! That rifle is BEAUTIFUL! ! 😍
That piece of wood is the most beautiful thing I've ever seen! That bowl is the most beautiful bowl I've ever seen, and it just calls out for bread to be made in it!
Did anyone else get closer to the screen to blow the sawdust off? ...me neither.
Nice info! Im interested in getting started in engraving. What were to happen if you go over the same cut twice?
Thanks for sharing your talent
I don’t like plastic D handles,they always crack and break,replacements you’ll find almost only on line,plastic of course.But I like your T handle,and I can always make a replacement in the shop,A metal handle would be the best,but I have no means to forge one.I like your simple handle ,thanks for the tip.
