I'm just speechless, the level of patience and dedication for this is amazing, it's a very beautiful cane and i would say it's priceless, this is an amazing work of art
Merci pour cette vidéo car non seulement vous êtes vraiment un artiste et en plus vous me donner de l'inspiration pour débuter dans la sculpture du bois. Respect. 🙏
Thank you for showing this Mr Stinnett, I've been looking forward to work such as yours, I've enjoyed the late Mr. David Stehly's work on realistic snake walking sticks and you have taken it to a new level of quality and artistry. I specialize in birds of prey out of different types of wood so I can relate to the time and effort it takes to take a piece of wood and turn it into something special. I enjoy seeing others making their art and your videos are outstanding.
+fuerton1 Thank you for the nice comment! I also really admired David's carvings! I was inspired to start making walking sticks after seeing some of his work. I looked at the pictures of your carvings on your blog, they are beautiful! I hope that you will make some RUclips videos of your work as you continue to carve.
When it started and you were just chilling out in a chair drawing it on I thought "Ha, wouldn't it be funny if he just sat there and made it like that". If I didn't watch the whole thing I wouldn't have believed it, truly craftsmanship at it's finest. I was impressed when you rough carved it with a power tool but the wood-burning of the scales... you MUST love what you do and it shows Sir. Subscribed.
I stumbled upon your videos by happenstance and am truly the better for it. Your work, patience and dedication to these works of art is beyond compare. I want to thank you for sharing these videos. They inspire me. I work digitally and the occasional pencil and paper but am always looking for inspiration. You are a treasure to humanity, sir. May you live long and continue to bless us all with your amazing work....
Each time I watch one of these videos I am equally as impressed as the last time. You Sir have an amazing talent and clearly have honed your skills to a razor sharpness.
I've been looking at the tools you use and i have every one, even that huge file! What i don't have is your amazing talent. Those creatures look positively alive! Great work!
That is so stunning beautiful!! And such a tons of work, also with great machins and helping tools. The end result really shows how much effort you put into it! Thank you for sharing!
Hello Mike. Your work was a true inspiration for me to start carving. I enjoy every video you have made.You have to make a carving art camp for the people who wants to learn carving art.
Wow! I am utterly speechless. Words like amazing, fantastic, incredible or even supercalifragilisticexpialidocious fail to adequately describe your art! I’ll be watching you store for the next one you carve :-)
Hey Sticks.... are you real ???? I have never in my life seen art as good as what you make. Unreal. How long does each piece take ? What does your art cost, and where can I get one ? Love to have a cobra or a coral snake "stick".You are to your craft what Michangelo was to his. Truly off the charts.
Well, Thank you very much, Phil! I appreciate that! It takes me about three weeks or so, to complete a stick. I can let you know about prices and how to order on stinnettstudio.etsy.com I hope to visit with you there.
you inspire me incredibly much, I hope when I finally leave school this year, I can set up a workshop and start carving things, I aim to be as good as you one day!
that is beautiful and a due piece of art I admire you sir for you have got a lot of talent and patients to due such work as you have done here, truly amazing.
You have an incredible appreciable skill there! Absolutely stunningly realistic talent!~I will say, living in the desert I have many venomous snakes. Your snakes stick is so realistic I would NOT allow it in the house! No questions about it! ~Suzanne
Glad you didn't take offence to not letting it in the house. Just yesterday I had a rattlesnake and a red racer caught in my garden netting. It gives me shivers when I have to untangle them. So just wondering? Did this ever give you nightmares? ~Suzanne
+Ahmed Galal Thank you! I sell these walking sticks on Etsy.com and have been taking custom orders. Here's a link to my shop. www.etsy.com/shop/StinnettStudio?ref=hdr_shop_menu
The way you burn and press the scales into the wood is amazing. The way the light plays of the scales just looks so realistic. Amazing.
+StealthElectronVIP Thank you...if only there just weren't so many scales to make : )
I'm just speechless, the level of patience and dedication for this is amazing, it's a very beautiful cane and i would say it's priceless, this is an amazing work of art
+Jose Saenz Thank you!
woooow, been a carpenter for over 40 yrs, watching this stunned me!! Have no words but RESPECT!!

Patience, And a skilled hand... This gentleman is Gifted with both......I like his style
roshawn seagull , same here.
Burning the scales in is the most impressive part. That really made the final product believable for me.
+John Drach I couldn't believe it first.
what tip are you using to burn the scales? Your carving is outstanding. BEAUTIFUL
I know everyone is probably in awe with the masterful carving, but I'm most impressed with the paint job. Wonderfully done.
+PANDORASBOXRELEASE Thank you! I do spend a good deal of time on the painting. Thanks for watching!
Sir you are the greatest wood carver I have ever seen in my life.......No is even close you are a perfectionist......
Thank you very much!

Thank you, Edith!
Stinnett Sticks Aunt Edith says 'thanks!" - (she's a springer spaniel!) but we got the message! Enjoyed the show!
You individually burned each scale on! That part really blew me away. Congratulations on your work, you're truly a master of your craft!
+Bloodfather Thank you very much! Yes, there's about 5,000 scales on each snake! It's probably the most time consuming part of the project.
Amazing! Very good craftsmanship! Snake looks real!
Thank you very much!
Hands of gold, I could say!

Haha! No, they don't give me nightmares. We got a lot of snakes around here too. I'm always looking out for them.
The eyes look very realistic! My data ran out so I didn't get to finish the video. Are they glass? ~Suzanne
Thank you, Suzanne! The eyes are carved in the wood and painted. Then I coat them with clear polyurethane.
