    By far the best gnome instructional video I've seen. Very simple for a beginner to watch and understand.
    Thank you.

    I echo what Do It Yourself Jim said, "I absolutely love the idea of using one piece of wood for the body and the hat, and the light burn to make a different color. I also really enjoyed the top hats on some of them. " Totally agree. Have watched a lot of videos and love yours bestest! Great job!!

    That has to be the best gnome video I have ever seen. I absolutely love the idea of using one piece of wood for the body and the hat, and the light burn to make a different color. I also really enjoyed the top hats on some of them. Great job!

    I love your video of turning the gnomes but I am wondering if you have a short video of turning a gnome with a top hat?
    Thank you

    I love how you burn the hats and put a design on them. They are a decent size too. Many just seem to widdle away the blank to nothing and I can't figure out why woodturners waste so much of the wood...making so much more of a mess.

    Great job. Do you glue in the nose first or add the fur then drill for the nose?

    • @thewhiskeynoobs9862
      @thewhiskeynoobs9862 3 года назад +1

      I drill the hole for the nose. Glue on the beard then insert the nose. In most cases the fit is tight enough that no glue is needed to hold on the nose.

    What size pine did you begin with before turning it to cylinder? Did you glue two pieces together to get enough thickness?

    • @BusyWrenCreations
      @BusyWrenCreations  3 года назад

      3-1/2 by 3-1/2in pine. No glue required. But I have made giant gnomes by glueing together 2x12 pine boards.

      They are made from 4x4 post so most end up between 3-1/4in and 3-1/2in in diameter.
