    I was just enjoying the carving, and then Johnny comes on. Fond reminder of conversations with my kids at the age. He's so sweet. It also makes me realize how long I've been watching your channel. You had two kids and he was a toddler back then.

    Nice project. Some ideas, how about carving a pickup truck (56 Ford F100), tank, bull dozer. Slightly more complex would be building a wooden wagon. Could make your own Lincoln Logs.

    I have a toddler also and I completely get that difficult challenge of pleasing them at random times. That canoe looks awesome! I would have stopped without the seats but then when I saw them on it I thought “dang! That took it to a new level”. Love watching your videos. Keep up the good work

  • @Meg_A_Byte
    @Meg_A_Byte 2 года назад +2

    Gotta appreciate the honesty of the kids. If they don't want to play with the canoe, at least they let you know straight up. Probably better than playing with it for 5 minutes and then never again.

    You make my favorite videos on RUclips. I started watching years ago when I was still in school. Your videos were my first exposure to hand tool woodworking and joinery. Now I have the means to have a small shop and Ive been practicing my joinery and quickly falling in love with the craft. Thanks for making the videos you do.

    Hey andy, I started watching your videos a few years ago and i got hooked i started to watch every new video and went back and watched some older ones, but i found out about a year ago youtube stopped recommending them to me. I recently saw an airstream camper and got reminded of yours. I never forgot your name and so i quickly got on youtube and found your channel again. Now i have post notifications on and i plan to go back and watch all of the videos ive missed. Im glad to be back and i wish you all the best.

    Hey Andy!, this could help you a bit with the matter if him maybe not liking it much currently.
    From the experience, I am 19 years old, (maybe I could still feel like a child?😁) but I do have a suggestion for you, since it happened to me the same before, and it is that most likely, little kids tend to feel more attracted to plastic, shiny and colorful toys.
    It isn´t that they don´t appreciate wooden toys, but their current interest. Happened to me with hand carved cars, were not the best... but what helped me with some children, was to take the time to sit with them, and get into their minds to ask and understand them what they currently like, and that´s how they tend to like more woode toys.
    As for example, they might currently like animals, would´nt mind to have a canoe, but definately they would incline towards more to their precently likes.´
    Also you can have a box with the wooden toys, not only to preserve better the wooden toys from environment and wear. But also for shared use, and when interested in them, they can be used and shared
    Hope it helps 😁 you have beautiful children 🥰
