    Doug, we have watched you step up your game. The great thing is, everyone can step up with you. I can’t wait to have some time here to really carve along with you. Please don’t ever delete your old videos

    You are a talented carver, but your true gift is teaching/explaining. The way you break each carving down into simple steps makes it doable and understandable for beginners like me. Thank you.

    Doug, you and your little steel magic wand continue to amaze me. With your little almost imperceptible cuts, you transform these little pieces of wood into wonderful creations. Thanks so much for doing these.

  • @glennnielsen2425
    @glennnielsen2425 6 месяцев назад +2

    Miraculous how much detail you get into such a small piece!
    And your calm demeanor as you teach is great .
    I have only ever watched a couple RUclips videos from start to finish without hitting the fast forward button! I just watched two of your hr long videos in completion. Great job

  • @quikscot1528
    @quikscot1528 11 месяцев назад +7

    Doug: You are masterful in your handling of a knife blade. Where others tend to use small gouges or tiny blades for such small figure details, you masterfully carve the finest detail with your inch and a half or inch and a quarter, or whatever blade length this particular knife is. No detail is too much of a challenge for you. I just love to watch your consumate knife skill as you create such wondefully detailed "tiny figures!" Please keep bringin 'em!!! Well done!

    Fantastic again Doug, my house has been over run by little hillbillies and now I have someone to keep them in check! Loving what you're doing, I was starting to get frustrated, trying to progress to quickly, I'm following along this series, doing multiple carvings of the same thing (I've 30+ hillbillies) I can see my progression, cleaner cuts, speed picking up and just plain having fun with these little guys.

    Doug, I gave one of my little gnome men to a friend. She took him to the hospital for a hip surgery, and she's had so much fun with him. Talking with Dr.'s and nurses about him. So, thank you Doug for inspiring me and helping bring a smile to someone's day.

    Awesome Doug ! Watching your video on the 1X1 Gnomes was my first attempt at carving and I made at least a dozen of them. This 1X1 carving of the little man is going to be even more fun and I'm sure I will fill my living room with chips again. Love it! Thanks for sharing your talent and this fun hobby.

    Excellent commentary..this is the cut and here's why...that really helps with new carvers! Woodcarving Illustrated many times caters to experienced carvers because they show more progress than what is explained from one photo to the next...

    @kimcokevin 4 месяца назад

    Just found this channel, and it’s been so helpful. I couldn’t wrap my head around scale and where to put in the detail. The bigger the wood the more detail you need to add, which is well beyond my skill set. These small characters are perfect for me and a lot more enjoyable.

    I’ve always had trouble with these.
    Thanks a lot!!
    Just what I was struggling with.
    Im going to make a bunch of these to practice.
    Im thrilled with what you have just demonstrated.
    Your instruction is top notch.
