    Hello Mr Linker, where are you with your vlogs, have you disappeared from the face of the earth, or do you no longer feel like it or are you completely snowed in Canada? I miss your vlogs or have you lost your inspiration

    Hi Doug. Your videos are the reason why I got into carving and why I subscribed to your channel two years ago. Love your style and artistry. I REALLY hope to see you soon. Hope all is well. Regards from Long Island, New York.👍

    Alex has great art talent, but he doesn't reach down to my learning level. I do think he is improving to reach my level or just hopefully my learning skills improve.
    Merry Christmas, and thanks for teaching me

    Beautiful work. You do make it look much easier than it actually is. Some people say their wood is hard or their tools aren’t as sharp, but we all need to realize that you could probably use a box cutter with a 2x4 and still it would be beautiful. Your hand strength and artistic eye are what makes your work beautiful. Merry Christmas Doug to you and your family. ✌🏻🤍🎄

I carved over 30 wood spirits and gave it away during christmas and New Years, it was phenomenal. It just occured to me if you can make the 1 x1 series carving of the 7 dwarfs from snow white, i would love to carve tham with you. Could you please consider making this video request. Please let me know how I can reach you I have pictures of my carvings I would like to share it with you. 🥰
