Hang in there Doug!!! I just got over my second battle with a respiratory virus. I got over it, then right after I got better I got it again. There is definitely something going around! Hang in there!!! Thanks for the video😁😁😁
Thanks again for another great video. I was thinking a person could use a piece of coat Hanger wire between the base and the gosht. Also your voice is so relaxing. Like bob Ross in joy of painting
That’s so funny! I carved a ghost while watching tv last night, then I get up today & see your video of a ghost carving! I see where I could have added some details & done some things better, but that it what I love most about your channel. I learn from you & my carving skills are vastly improved because of you & your channel. Thanks Doug & keep the great tutorials coming!
Hi Doug. Per Coffee and Carving: I have a great street / address hitching post sign. Very simple. I used a 6X6 with a premade cap. I carved the address part from cypress. The Woodcraft store suggested this. It hangs from some special metal links that go into an eyehook. This allows me to take it down. I just don't have a way to send you a picture.
Spooktastic!, - enjoyed this one, I'm with Sophie, no mouth, don't want the ghosts to be too friendly do we? I've watched and enjoyed this video numerous times - Thanks Doug
Hey Doug! Love the little guys! 👍🏻 I got my first issue of Woodcarving Illustrated and was happy to see it was the one with your article in it. Thanks for the video, always like them, and have a speedy recovery.
Another great video, learn something new with every one. I've always liked your funny comments throughout your videos but I must say I absolutely love the added bloopers at the end of this one! 😂
You my favorite teacher, I'll return in winter Planning to make myself a good-great set of tools for carving I'm pretty good at Blacksmith hobbyist skills too. Thanks
BOO !!! 👻👻👻 FANTASTIC . DOUG you never disappoint. I was thinking of different Ghosts to carve and there we have it.... another Linker Miracle. Thanks buddy. Stay safe 😉
Thanks for posting these. I started carving about four months ago with a beaver craft knife set. After deciding that I wanted to continue carving as a hobby I purchased three OCC knives. The OCC knives have taken my carving to another level. Learning with the first set made me much more deliberate with my technique so now I’m much more confident with my carving. I really enjoy watching your videos and getting new ideas for things to carve. This is such a relaxing hobby for me.
Hi doug thank you for your time, i just saw a HEDGEHOG on temu its a dog toy but i thought it would be a Great whittle project what do you think?!?! Also as you were doing the under cut i thought... what if the was an orange trick o treat bag hanging down from under the sheet?
Sorry your under the weather. Hope you feel better soon. To be honest you never let it show while you were carving. That will be a great addition to my fall grouping I have pumpkins and scarecrow you demonstrated…. Many thanks again.
Thank you for video,is so good watching you carving so relaxing you always carving beautiful, take care and Happy Thanksgiving for you and your family.
Doug, Thank you so much !! I'm a real newbie to this hobby. It's nice to see the use of a few other tools. I'm so new to this I don't have a clue about gouges or V-tools. It might be fun to see you do the Right side of a carving with knife only and the Left using other tools in order to introduce them and help those of us who are clueless understand how they are used. Thank You and Bless You
What wonderfull talent and imagination you have i enjoy your videos thank you .from Australia wish we had that timber here every thing is very hard wood ,take care .
Do you oil before painting it? Or do you only oil ones that aren’t being painted? Also what’s with the bees wax? Same question. Do you put that on after painting or just carvings without paint? Do you use it if you already used the oil or is it in place of the oil?
oil before paint for a more even paint job -keeps the wood from sucking the paint in -i use howard feed and wax after paint (no wax ever before paint) to finish and if i'm not painting at all i just use that
Great whittle, thanks! Do you have any suggestions for how to seal / waterproof the final carving for placement outdoors? I've used polyurethane before but black spots eventually showed up on the wood. Any suggestions much appreciated!
Hi Doug, after seeing this video, I signed up for a yearly subscription for Woodcarving Illustrated and using your promo code. Have not received the current magazine or any of the items you mentioned with the code. Assume I might have to wait until the next issue?? FYI, I did make about 6 of your ghost and gave as gifts. It was a big hit.
Hey I'm Getting back into wood carving and wanted to know if you could do a sitting wolf carving. I've had a hard time trying to find a video on carving one. And maybe do some female wood carvings? Lots of old men with beard carvings but not allot of female figurine carvings I've seen.
Had a good time carving this lil guy! I opted to put him over a crooked tombstone.
Thanks Doug🎃 you help lower my blood pressure with your calming carving👻 Feel better ✌🏼🥰
Casper the friendly Ghost 👻. Who are we going to call? The Ghost Busters! I love your little cravings. So simple.
Hey Doug I just loved Casper with the big blue eyes and thanks so much for sharing! 👍👍👍🤩🤩🤩💯💯💯
Thanks for the great carve! Especially like the view of undercuts to accent shadows on the bottom of body.,
Another great idea and done in such a way that it is so enjoyable to listen to and hopefully carve one myself. Thanks Doug.
Doug, hope and pray 🙏 you get to feeling better soon, God bless you and your family as well! ❤️💯🇺🇸🙏
Hang in there Doug!!! I just got over my second battle with a respiratory virus. I got over it, then right after I got better I got it again. There is definitely something going around! Hang in there!!! Thanks for the video😁😁😁
Outstanding video Doug, perfect timing, feel better my friend.

Thanks Doug. Great little carve, can't wait to do a few myself. Hope you feel better soon.
Your brain is incredibly creative. That's almost as as scary as your ghost. 😂😂❤❤❤
Basswood suppliers everywhere should be sponsoring you since we all burn thru making all these like wildfire!

Awesome Doug!

These ghosts are adorable. Thanks for sharing.
What wonderfull talent and imagination you have i enjoy your videos thank you .from Australia wish we had that timber here every thing is very hard wood ,take care .

Que bonitos fantasmas...👍🏼
You made it through the whole carving with the glove on! Thanks for the painting tips at the end too. Hope you're feeling better soon!
Hey Doug would you ever consider going live so we can ask questions in real time?
problaby due for another soon
Thank you Doug! Take care of that cold
fantastic!!!!
Thanks!
Thanks!!
Your more than welcome!!! All your videos has inspired me to get back into carving.@@dougLinker
You are the next Tom Wolfe would love to see you carve a dragon similar to what he did .
I worked on one of these this evening. Mine kind of looks like an owl. 😂 Maybe I’ll try to turn it into one.
So when are your stickers going on sale again??? Love your carving
definately need to do something again soon
Combined the ghost with the pumpkin head for "ghost of pumpkin past " .
Get well soon
Now I'm wondering what it would look like with legs...
Casper...dating yourself there Doug. Lol
Do you oil before painting it? Or do you only oil ones that aren’t being painted?
Also what’s with the bees wax? Same question. Do you put that on after painting or just carvings without paint? Do you use it if you already used the oil or is it in place of the oil?

Nice!
In the thumb nail i thought you were goin to do a bobble head ghost. 😊
Sweet
The bob ross of carving.
👻👻👻👻👻👻👻👍🏻👍🏻 thanks Feel better Thanks
Doug, can you whittle a traditional type frosty the snow man?
i'm sure there will be a snowman of some sorts in the future -but lets not rush the snow lol
Yah I was first to comment!
Great whittle, thanks! Do you have any suggestions for how to seal / waterproof the final carving for placement outdoors? I've used polyurethane before but black spots eventually showed up on the wood. Any suggestions much appreciated!
I’ve heard of people using spar varnish (the same you would use on a wooden boat)
@@dougLinker I'll give that a try, thanks Doug!
👍👍👍
