    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.👍

    I love your videos and I wondered what happened to you so I stumbled on the coffee and carving thing add found out what you were doing which is very cool and understandable I don't make the sound like a nag and I fully agree with what you are doing but it would have been cool to have a notification of what was going on because we all miss you

    Hopefully, you'll get this done a little quicker and have time for your Christmas Doug Linker. You are my best teacher of carving
    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

    Greetings Doug - I'm coming to terms with no new videos. Sure do hope you are continuing to carve on your own. It would be a shame for the world to lose such a talent.
    Good luck old friend.

    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. ✌🏻🤍🎄
