Very nicely done! If someone asked me to do a chainsaw carving, I expect the log would end up looking like a chainsaw! Really good likeness of a bear cub, especially on the first try. You've got a very good eye for proportion and detail! Thanks for sharing!
Absolutely, positively, card carrying awesome! I spend more time with yarn than anything else. So, when I see a wood worker doing his thing, I am totally blown away! Great job!!!
Really good! No one could tell by the finished product that you were bearly a cub with chainsaw carving. Sweet placement at the pond. Thanks for all you do.
I have been watching your videos in a sort of binge way. I went as far back as I could and this is where I’m I’m currently located. What a beautiful job for a first attempt!! You are a renaissance man through and through. Best Regards Fred Thomas
So nice to see you!!! You did a wonderful job with Burt! I loved how all the animals were gathered around him at the end. The deer kept checking him out. Too cute! You live on some gorgeous property! Also, I hope you're feeling well! Keep on healing.
That's how I got started....my first attempt was an eagle....sold it 2 days later for $175....I was hooked. 37 years later and my back is so bad that I can't hold a chainsaw up for more then 5 minutes. It was so enjoyable that after a few years I was able to look at a piece of wood and immediately be able to see what I could make out of it...whether it was an eagle, owl, bear, or whatever...it just became something that people wanted to buy....but the years of handling those logs and chainsaws caught up with me, on top of the different construction jobs that I had......I really miss that part of my life.....so great job, you did absolutely fine for your first time.
Incredible!!.. this is on a whole nother level mr. Humphrey.. Great job! Glad to hear you're doing well, thank you for the video and update on your recovery. Cheers!
I am loving how that turned out, great job. I also love the way you show the work of some of your subscriber's, there sure is a lot of talent out there. Wishing you a speedy recovery..
Rod I have just decided that you can do anything that you put your mind to. You really are amazing and fantastic, this little bear is amazing. I am glad to hear that you are doing well and getting better. Just don't get impatient and start working to soon. God bless you and your family. Semper Fi my dear Rod.
Chainsaw fumes and sawdust. Now that's what I call a perfect day. Seeing what you have done with free wood I wish I could have someone dump that much on my property. Keep up the beautiful work and thanks for sharing with us.
Hi Rod, Sorry for being late to the party watching this video but I am in Ireland on holiday. Great job carving the bear and its your first attempt. Perhaps the physios will get you to crochet a blanket for it as part of your recovery. LOL. Glad to hear everything is on track. Cheers, Huw
wow! You chainsawed that bear out of a log with the same control and sure handedness as you have with a sharp bowl gouge when you turn a bowl. That was a joy to watch. Thanks for sharing.
Great looking cub carving!!! Burt looks at home with the deer and raccoons. 🐻 Also, the creations that were sent by your subscribers were wonderful. Lots of talent. Hope you are healing well. Praying for you. God bless.
i can’t imagine sculpting anything this well the first time or any time, out of clay or wood or balsa.... you have a very creative eye and must know your chainsaw well!
Wow. That is really impressive. Good luck with your shoulder! I just had glaucoma surgery in my right eye on May 13. They put a drainage tube in my eye. Now I still see very blurry but the doctor said it will clear up in a few weeks. I hope he is not lying to me. In the meanwhile no RUclips videos and no woodworking. It took everything just to text you this and watch your video. Ok now need to rest my eyes. Keep up the great videos!
Great job Rod for your first time doing this carving. I behave been praying for full recovery for your shoulder. I have had major problems with both shoulders. I am getting prologue treatments, it is helping tremendously. Besides those treatments, I am getting other treatments. May the LORD bless you greatly.
Thank you David, I appreciate the prayers very much. I hope you treatments continue to work for you. Same to you, and I truly do feel blessed and I'm grateful!
Absolutely amazing, Rod. I was fascinated the whole time. You have a real eye for art. I always enjoy seeing your other projects as much as your turning. I'm confident that my first attempt and every other one would wind up as chips, sawdust and smaller pieces of firewood. I think this is the first time I've seen you in front of the camera.
I'll bet you could do this! I'll be doing more, certainly a lot to learn.. I'm not a camera hound, I always just try to focus on the project which I always feel is more important than my mug, lol. Thank you!
I can't imagine how you figured out what wood wasn't bear and what was bear and should remain. But I'm sure glad you did! Burt is a fine young fellow. Good to hear your shoulder is healing well. Please keep up the good work so we can all watch you for years to come.
Great to see you back at it again Rod. Hope your recovery goes quickly and perfectly look forward to seeing lots more carving this one is awesome especially when you say it's your first waooooow
Hey Rod outstanding job for a first carving! Gorgeous bear cub that is cute rather than scary, looks like the local wildlife gave it a thumbs up too! Very Well done, I love it. I hope you heal quick and are pain free very soon. Take care 💪😘
Fantastic I can’t believe it is the first time you have done a chainsaw carving. It looks really good and the animals in your garden seem to like it too
Rod: Is there anything you can’t do with wood? Every time I see one of your videos, I watch in awe on what you can do!!! God has blessed you with a wonderful talent.
Ahhh! Now I understand your emoji hint 🐻 when I told you I was looking forward to more non-bowl videos! 😂 This is fantastic. Also impressive for a first attempt. Thanks so much for sharing. Have a speedy recovery.
I am truly impressed, he is adorable. All that with a bum shoulder. I've always wanted to try chainsaw carving. Been afraid to do it. Just might have to give it a shot. Thank you for sharing this.
I thought, you have got to be kidding with you doing this so soon after surgery. Then you said it was done in April. I thought that is more like it. You absolutely amaze me on the lathe, and now this. This display could definitely be used in the "Smokey the Bear" commercials. Great Job. God Bless, and as always, BE SAFE! Anchors Away.
Thank you brother! yeah, I have a couple more videos pre recorded to publish while I'm recovering. Looking forward to getting back to it though!! Semper Fi
This is a nice change up from the turning. Turned out beautifully. You're a true artist, able to go from one medium to another have such great results. Would love to see more of these carvings if you've got the itch for it now. Also, hope you get well soon!
Greetings Sir Humphrey, I believe there's nothing you can't do!! Baby bear Burt looks beary, beary, awesome!! Nice placement in your yard! 👍. I hope making him didn't cause you too much pain. I see Burt had visitors to great him quickly once you left. Good video work by the way! 👍👏👏. Your viewers wood working skills are awesome too! You could make a wooden mortar and pestle, I saw one on one of the cooking shows I've watched & I thought if you right away. God bless you dear Brother Sir Humphrey & we pray you're healing well. Just don't overdo it while you're healing. With Christian prayers for healing & love from above. Blessings, Robyn 🤗🙋♀️
@@RHumphrey We are to pray for our kinsmen when in need. I have a prayer request🙏. We spent Sunday, day & night & Monday till around 4.45 PM in the Progressive Cardiac Care Unit, my husband has afib & his ❤beat was all over the place, as low as 40 & as high as 155 & he has uncontrollable hiccups, his fingernails were blue when I took him to the emergency room, I never left his side & did everything I could think of to make him comfortable, couldn't sleep the whole time there & he hot a little but the hiccups kept waking him & we learned the man in the next bed had pneumonia! I had just got over a bout of walking pneumonia & we started focusing on getting discharged ASAP after learning this information. I'm praying we dont get that again. Would you please offer up prayers for his heart to strengthen, beat normally & for the hiccups to stop. He's become hoarse & it's getting worst, not better, he has a very sore throat & unable to eat anything but scrambled eggs & oatmeal 🥺. Thank you dear Brother & friend.

He has little appetite, but managed to have some roasted Red Pepper & Tomato Soup & a hot cup of Breathe Easy & Green Mint combo tea before retiring, his temp dropped to 99.3. He has an infection in his throat. The meds have his vitals looking better. He just needs rest & TLC, & he'll soon be back to his normal self.

NOW THIS IS WHAT I CALL A TRUE CRAFTSMAN AT HEART.YOU ARE SUPER AWESOME.AND AMAZING WITH THE SAW.GOD BLESS YOU GET WELL AND TAKE CARE.NICE SHAVING BRUSHES AND ALL THE OTHER BEAUTIFUL WOODEN PIECES.❤👍👍👍👍👍🐻🐻
You are one unbelievable artist, I can't believe that you made that with a chainsaw. What other surprises can you do? Thank you so much for sharing your amazingly awesome talent with us.
On this Memorial Day, let me thank you first for your service, my friend! And second, if this is your first attempt at a chainsaw bear, then you don't need anymore practice! Outstanding!
Rod for a first attempt it turned out great! But I am not surprised you are a very talented artist and you just exchanged a carving chisel with a chainsaw. What next? How about a huge carving chiseled from a large stone? Glad to hear you are on the mend. Great work brother! Gary
Rod, Burt’s adorable! Even huggable. I have a black Lab named Hogue. We call him Hoggie bear. 😂 That’s who Burt reminds me of. Your talents cease to amaze me. I hope to see more of what you and your “friend” Husqvarna comes up with next. 😉 Be well, be blessed. Hugs to Sue!
Great job for your first attempt. I love your work and admire your talent. I have got my fathers lathe rehabbed and ready for a new motor and gotta do smoe work on the stand and have just worked out a deal for some used cheisiels. I hope to have the old girl up and running soon. It is an old Montgomery Wards Powercraft built back in the 1940s, nothing fancy but I will see what I can do with it. I've never turned before. Been prayimg for your full recovery. God bless.

Thanks very much! 😊 Felling well, thank you, if not a bit impatient lol
Hi Rod, God job on Bert. I also like the fact that this is the first time we get to see the man behind all of this talented work
That's how I got started....my first attempt was an eagle....sold it 2 days later for $175....I was hooked. 37 years later and my back is so bad that I can't hold a chainsaw up for more then 5 minutes. It was so enjoyable that after a few years I was able to look at a piece of wood and immediately be able to see what I could make out of it...whether it was an eagle, owl, bear, or whatever...it just became something that people wanted to buy....but the years of handling those logs and chainsaws caught up with me, on top of the different construction jobs that I had......I really miss that part of my life.....so great job, you did absolutely fine for your first time.
Thank you, I appreciate that very much! Sorry about your back issues, I can only imagine how much you miss doing what you loved to do!
Incredible!!.. this is on a whole nother level mr. Humphrey.. Great job! Glad to hear you're doing well, thank you for the video and update on your recovery. Cheers!
Thank you, I appreciate that!
I am loving how that turned out, great job. I also love the way you show the work of some of your subscriber's, there sure is a lot of talent out there. Wishing you a speedy recovery..
Thank you, I appreciate that!
It looks great and fits in well with your landscaping. Great Job. Keep the inspiration coming.
Thanks so much!
I got a chainsaw from my husband for my birthday. I love it! Going to attempt a carving now. You give me hope!
Awesome!! Go for it! Thank you 😊
Rod I have just decided that you can do anything that you put your mind to. You really are amazing and fantastic, this little bear is amazing. I am glad to hear that you are doing well and getting better. Just don't get impatient and start working to soon. God bless you and your family. Semper Fi my dear Rod.
Thank you very much, Kobie! I sure appreciate your kindness!
Chainsaw fumes and sawdust. Now that's what I call a perfect day. Seeing what you have done with free wood I wish I could have someone dump that much on my property. Keep up the beautiful work and thanks for sharing with us.
thanks very much. I'll use as much as I can 🙂
Your different talents never cease to amaze me!!! Great job!! Always learn something new from your channel!! Thank you!
Thank you, I appreciate that!
That turned out really nice.
It looks better than the 2 I bought for my wife at a craft fair.
Outstanding.
Blessings to you and your family
Thank you very much!
I love the sound of chainsaws. The sound brings back good memories.
Cute bear.
Thanks very much! 😊
Hi Rod, Sorry for being late to the party watching this video but I am in Ireland on holiday. Great job carving the bear and its your first attempt. Perhaps the physios will get you to crochet a blanket for it as part of your recovery. LOL. Glad to hear everything is on track. Cheers, Huw
Thank you! I'm afraid my cats would be at odds with any crochet activities...lol
Wonderful video Top, Great work for a first time. Loved the deers' response to the cub's presence. Paige
Thank you very much, Paige! They were a bit cautious for a little while 😊
Excellent......as usual!!! You are better than you say. Humility is a great quality that is becoming far too rare in modern society.
wow! You chainsawed that bear out of a log with the same control and sure handedness as you have with a sharp bowl gouge when you turn a bowl.
That was a joy to watch. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks very much! 😊
Great looking cub carving!!! Burt looks at home with the deer and raccoons. 🐻
Also, the creations that were sent by your subscribers were wonderful. Lots of talent.
Hope you are healing well. Praying for you. God bless.

Thanks for the shout out.

Great job, even with a bad wing. You have made me want to try my first carving with a chain saw. Keep up the good work and showing us the way.
Thank you very much! Go for it!

Fantastic I can’t believe it is the first time you have done a chainsaw carving. It looks really good and the animals in your garden seem to like it too
I did try to make and eagle once, but it ended up looking like a sad penguin... This was my first bear though. Thank you
Rod: Is there anything you can’t do with wood? Every time I see one of your videos, I watch in awe on what you can do!!! God has blessed you with a wonderful talent.

Life can't get any better.
Very nice job, Rod.
Well said, well said!
Rod, I have had both shoulders reconstructed and all too well know your pain. Wish you a speedy recovery. The bear cub is awesome. Stay strong sir!
Thanks Mike, 3 weeks till therapy begins...both apprehensive and anxious... Thank you!
Ahhh! Now I understand your emoji hint 🐻 when I told you I was looking forward to more non-bowl videos! 😂
This is fantastic. Also impressive for a first attempt. Thanks so much for sharing. Have a speedy recovery.
😊 Thank you! I throw little hints out now and again just for fun, I'm glad you got it!
You have amazing talent! Your skill with a chainsaw is almost as good as with a bowl gouge. I wish you a speedy and full recovery.
Kind of you to say, Paul, Thank you very much!
I was happy to see you in my notifications today! Glad you are on the mend. God Bless & continue to take care of yourself
Thank you, I appreciate that!
Super great first attempt , definitely a black bear. Hope your rehab goes well take care and hope to see you soon. THANKS for sharing Rod.

Thank you very much! give it a go!
Enjoyed watching you create your bear. Always wondered how they did that. Thank You.

Thank you Mike, I appreciate that!
Can see the bear coming out with each cut!
Thanks so much!

Looks great!! A true artist. "Hey Bert welcome home".
Thank you very much!
Awesome work, Rod! That one doe didn't know what to make of Burt the Bear!
they were a bit wary that first morning, lol, thanks!
This is a nice change up from the turning. Turned out beautifully. You're a true artist, able to go from one medium to another have such great results. Would love to see more of these carvings if you've got the itch for it now. Also, hope you get well soon!
thank you George! I do have that itch now, for sure....

I have got my fathers lathe rehabbed and ready for a new motor and gotta do smoe work on the stand and have just worked out a deal for some used cheisiels. I hope to have the old girl up and running soon. It is an old Montgomery Wards Powercraft built back in the 1940s, nothing fancy but I will see what I can do with it. I've never turned before.
Been prayimg for your full recovery. God bless.
Thank you! I'm excited for you! beginning to turn, and with you father's lathe...super nice! Thank you for the prayers too!
