I was a draftsman for 50 year.....retired now....having fun with the carving.......your large trout carving has given me inspiration......my goal is to carve a large Largemouth Bass......so thanks for making this video......I know I can carve that Bass
I have a smallmouth bass carving on film that I need to edit soon, so hopefully I can hammer that out for some more inspiration! It's a 5.5lb smallmouth trophy replica I carved that turn out beautifully.
I am looking forward to your Bass carving video......that is going help me and many others.......you do a wonderful job on your edits......keep up the great work
Thanks.....I am just starting wood carving making Bass fishing lures ....Large swimbaits and topwater baits......I am using a jig saw now.....So soon I will get the band saw......Carving has been a blast
Very cool! I have made a few swimsuits myself, and they're a ton fun to make and to fish with. I have a few rainbow trout glide baits that I carved then made molds of in silicone to reproduce. They're 9" long and glide beautifully. Good luck on the carvings! Oh, and if you haven't already, check out Marlin Bait Co. RUclips channel, and go through his video list. The guy makes some awesome lures and has some great information. Also, a small bandsaw like the Grizzly Industrial G0803 Baby Bandsaw is a great starter for lure making--and it's super affordable.
Clayton Christiansen Your work is fantastic and inspiring for this disabled veteran. Watching you work coupled with that dreamy music is choice. What is the MUSIC ?
Random off-topic question.. What music is this? haha ALSO, Great videos. Being a hunter/fisherman, I absolutely love your work. :) I have all kinds of woodworking except for band saw, This makes me want to get one :)
Thanks Wes, I really appreciate the feedback! The music for this is actually one of the newer songs from the RUclips free music library. They really stepped up the selection and quality this time around. I have to say the bandsaw is a very useful item in my shop, and I use it for everything from tiny fin cutouts to resawing book match panels. You can get into one pretty cheap if you go the Ryobi route, but I really recommend buying as much saw as you can outright to avoid having to pay more upgrading later. Also, check out Craigslist and Facebook Marketplace for really, really good deals on used saws--totally worth it!
Hello Jon, what I am using in the video is a "flat" sanding disc. I say flat, but they are fairly pliable, and flex when applying pressure to the workpiece. Here's a link to the type I am using in the video: www.lowes.com/pd/Gator-Fiber-Discs-3-Pack-Aluminum-Oxide-4-5-in-50-Grit-Fiber-Disc/1000339735 I recommend the 50-grit, as the 36-grit will really eat up material and leave a lot more sanding to do prior to priming the fish. Thanks for the question!
@@RiverbendWoodworks gracias estiamdo, yo soy de la patagonia chilena, necesito aprender bien esto, estoy tratando de aserlo los salmomes mas reales, porque lo hacia planos, pero he visto que asen los ojos de vidroo y no se como, lo.mismo que la pintura, soy de la patagonia, y gracias por responder maestro
Realmente puedes! Solo se necesita algo de práctica. ¡Comencé con herramientas manuales como cinceles y sierras manuales y empecé desde allí! ¡Pruébalo y diviértete!
@@RiverbendWoodworks tiene algun face o algo, me gustaria compartir lo qie e hecho, llevo como 3 meses empese donde quede cesante, lo asi planos y ahora quiero aserlo mas realista, veo que lo.asen de vidrio los ojos y los dientes t escamas, pero el.secreto nadie lo dice, por eao graciaa por compartir me sirve mucho este video, y para pintarlo y darle los colores parecidos also reales se aprendera en el camino
Amigo me sirve muchos sus videos, pero como dijo alguien que me falta mucho y el lleva 20 años y le quedan como real, pero no dice el secreto, me gustaria que estuviera en español pra entender?
For this fish I went with the bandsaw. For fish smaller than 12" or so, or when there's complex, tight curves on intricate fins, then I will go with the scroll saw. I would say it's the bandsaw 90% of the time.
Hey Steve, Yes, I have brushed the grinder disk over my fingers a time or two. Each time ends up more like a mild rug burn than anything else. I think I am fortunate, as it looks pretty narly when the thing is whipping around at 20,000RPMS! The key is to practice a lot, and mainly the idea is to let the grit do the work--light passes are the key, so if it does go a hair too far the impact is minor.
Thanks. Gonna have to agree with you there--certainly more of a power-carver these days. I use to do everything with hand tools, but fell in love with the power tool route. Thanks for watching!
Hi Jom…. Maybe so…..but the wooden fish living in that block doesn’t care how you bring him out. I’ve done it both ways and power lets you spend the time detailing instead of making lots of slow, unrewarding chips. If you have a limited time to carve each week, power is a great choice and I see no shame in it.

Very nice! I may have to carve a fish soon. Thanks for the inspiration.
Thanks Mark! Glad you enjoyed the videos. Carving a fish is a great way to de-stress during the Holiday's...I promise :-)
Lovely work. 👍💓
Thank you! Cheers!
super
really a nice job

Great Video and Fish
Prefeito parabéns pelo seu trabalho é maravilhoso
Great videos! What is the music?
Desde Palmira Colombia 😍👍😲
Is that a flat sanding disc or a cutoff wheel on the grinder?

Cual forma es para aser los ojos que no sean de vidrio y los dientes?
Siempre puede hacer los dientes con solo una varilla de madera y lijarla, luego pintar y terminar de esa manera. Es una opción común también.

What wood is this? Poplar?
This carving is from basswood. Highly recommend it!
Que hermoso trabajo, ojala pudiera aserlo asi

Do you use a band saw or scroll saw or both ?
For this fish I went with the bandsaw. For fish smaller than 12" or so, or when there's complex, tight curves on intricate fins, then I will go with the scroll saw. I would say it's the bandsaw 90% of the time.
Buenisimo el video
¡muchas gracias!
@@RiverbendWoodworks no gracias a vos soy pescador es algo que gustaria tenen porque me gusta la artensanias mas si son de peses
Mirare tu videos una y otra vez para que se me quede algo grabado
Have you ever polished you fingers with that sanding disk. Be careful good job.
Hey Steve,
Yes, I have brushed the grinder disk over my fingers a time or two. Each time ends up more like a mild rug burn than anything else.

It really is that addicting to make something cool 😎👍
Great vid but it’s not really wood carving more like wood sanding
