    Thanks for sharing! Do you find it easier carving the rough of the arm attached to the main piece/body rather than carving it detached and then glue it on?

    • @S.Hunter
      @S.Hunter 4 месяца назад

      There are times where I will carve a portion of the add on piece prior to attaching it. Doing so can make it easier to handle, however, if I carve it after it's attached it helps me "see" How it works with the main piece. If I am carving from a pattern that has been proven to work I am more likely to carve more before attaching. Thank you for the question.

    • @S.Hunter
      @S.Hunter 4 месяца назад

      @whittling I am currently using a GoPro Hero 12 Black camera and have been trying different mounting options. I have an adjustable wall mounted boom with a ring light that I modified to mount the GoPro in the center of it. I use that quite often. I also have a GoPro mounting bracket on the front edge of my desk that I use from time to time, it's what I used for this last video. The other mounting that I use is actually a shooting tripod that I use when deer hunting. I found it to be quite handy. It is a Primos brand trigger stick gen3. It came with a 1/4-20 mount that I have attached a GoPro mount to. The nice thing about it is the legs are a tube in tube design that traps air in them making the act like pneumatic cylinders. There is a trigger just under the mounting surface that opens a valve to the legs and allows you to freely extend, retracts or angle all of the legs simultaneously. It operates super smooth and allows me to position the camera effortlessly. For the rotating progress shots I have another GoPro mount on my desk in front of a small turntable. I carve a few minutes and then place the carving on the turntable to record 30sec of thar then carve more....rinse and repeat. The GoPro works OK, but I am considering adding a second camera. Always trying to figure it out!

    Some of you may have noticed a glitch in the matrix. I published essentially this same video earlier and there were some views and a great conversation started. Now the title is slightly different and those original comments are gone. That's my fault! Shortly after publishing the original video i noticed some video quality problems that i couldn't leave as it was. So I pulled the other video down, fixed (the best i could) the video issues and published it again. So i apologize to the folks that offered the original comments.
