at age 72 i have started carving, first dabled in Kohlrosing basket weave on Opinel knife handles for xmas presents. then on to spoon and spatula carving in butternut and cherry with a kohlrosing palm or sunflower to adorn the handle. now i have ordered basswood, a 1 3/4" knife , and acrylic paint to try doing chararacutures. my first will be the bear, will be a gift for a nieces daughter . thank you Doug for being such a good teacher and showing many people how to start in woodworking. i am one step ahead of the game because i have sharpened my own knives for work and play for nearly 50 yrs.
Thanks to your tutorials I started woodcarving and found not just a hobby but a true passion. I just want to send you a tiny little "Thank you" and hope you enjoy the Coffee. Keep up your good work. Can't wait for more little critters to come. Many Greetings from Bulgaria
Love it, thanks so much for all the effort you put into breaking all these little projects down for us beginners. Please keep up the great work!! ❤
I'm so excited to carve this for my grand niece's 2nd birthday! Her 1st bday was the original bear you taught. This one will be "baby bear" 🐻 yay!
Gooood afternoon from central Florida! Hope everyone has a great afternoon!
Doug I can't thank you for the 1x1 series . I have been having a lot of fun making the bears. When I go to the park to carve and people come over I give them to the kids with their parents permission.
They are great, the tie and the jumper gives them a bit of charachter, can't wait to try it.
The darker green helps greatly.
Thanks
oh good! thx
When is a new Doug video day is an happy day❤
This evening it will be dedicated to this little bear thank you Uncle Doug!
Doug you did it again young man. That's MORE wood I have to order. Thanks for the Video. Great little fellas.
So excited for your newest video!!
Thank you Doug. Really having fun with the 1x1 whittles.
I love these little bears, thanks for showing us two different styles in this video Doug.
Thank you for your inspiration I've been watching your videos for awhile now your so amazing glad I found your channel
Thanks Doug. These are fantastic.
Thanks John!!
Perfect timing 👌
these are super cute
Congratulations on your article.. I’m probably not going to receive that print due to the fact I keep forgetting to subscribe to it..🤦🏻♂️ but I am now..👍🏻
But any who.. thanks for all you do. I’m always looking forward to the next video.
Hi Doug!! Perfect timing to sit and relax after a morning of chores- love your little tutorials and the bears are too cute🐻 Thanks a bunch 🥰
Loved it Doug, a fun cute project.
Thank you Doug, for such a wonderful video. In my humble opinion I think it was one of the best explained and demonstrated tutorials I have ever seen. You have totally excelled, even yourself. Thanks again.
Great fun carving. Thank you! I will carve a bunch of these.
Hi Doug, from down under, (Australia) Queensland. I'm another beginner at 73, and thoroughly enjoying your instructional videos. Before I discovered your videos, I shopped on Amazon and purchased a kit from Hutsuls, unfortunately Scandinavian ground and thick. Okay for roughing out but not so good for detail and I found out the hard way that stop cutting behind the ears of the bear, split the back of the head off. Rewind video and start again. I have now ordered two Halvie knives from Gokhan and can't wait until they arrive. I hope that you don't mind that I mentioned you as the person responsible for my purchase , as you mentioned them on your RUclips channel but not as an endorsement or recommendation but as a good quality tool. Please keep up the great videos, I've been going right back to your early videos and can see a lot of opportunities for me to pass time with. Thank you Doug.
Cheers
Geoff
Another awesome carve! Thanks Doug.
Doug, thanks again, I can bearly stand it, all these bear options, I love it. Thanks for what you do, it keeps me carrying on whittling.
That’s so awesome Doug your carvings come alive right before your eyes, and thanks for sharing! 👍👍👍🤩🤩🤩💯💯💯

it's only been alittle over a week since the comfort bird video but for some reason people didn't see or get notified
Doug. Really love your channel. Been watching loads of your old videos. The trips are great and the silent series are fantastic. Just subscribed to woodcarving illustrated. Thanks
Thanks John!!
Another great little tutorial, autumn is nearly upon us which means carving time again, cheers from across the pond.
Look at all those 1x1 carvings on your shelf!!! Wow. And "bearbell" should become a thing...
Love it!
Nice, nice, nice.... Really like them. I think my favorite will be bear in a stump. Thanks Doug.
Always excited to get one of your notifications. I'm really learning lots seeing how efficient you are with your cuts! That green background helps along with the way you pause at various points for us to see where you are at! Thank you for sharing!
Thanks Doug like all the 1x1 carvings. Please keep them coming! Your very inspiring 👍
Another great tutorial, thanks for all your videos. Keep up the great work.
Muchas gracias por tus trabajos. Enhorabuena por el canal, un saludo.
I'm new to your channel. This is something I would like to learn. I just watched a couple of your old shows. I learned a lot! You explain things well. Thanks for sharing your craft! Take care!
Great tutorial Doug keep them coming please. Really like the Winnie the Pooh bear and the little guy with the tie
Hey Doug just want to thank you for all your awesome videos. I’ve been following you for a few years now and you got me into carving and I love it. Loving your one by one series and I carved three little bears for my granddaughters and they love them. Keep up the good work and I appreciate it.
Thanks Doug! Your tutorials have helped me as a beginner carver to improve my skills. I appreciate your explanations on how to do things.
Thanks again Doug, I am loving these 1x1 projects.
Love these! Fun to carve. Now how about a bear with a Santa hat?
Dang! You did it again! Made my Sunday ❤😊
Awesome!
These are so easy and quick to make...... just perfect to make as gifts. Love them 💗 🏴
Thanks as always for sharing your talents. Much appreciated.
Glad to see you post a new video, I missed you. I hope you are enjoying your summer, thanks for the new post.
For some reason my last video was missed by many (comfort bird 1x1)
As a Senior Safety Advocate at Bell Helicopter I am about to have a stroke watching you do this without proper PPE. LOVE YOUR VIDEOS
Congrats on your publication! I’ll have to see if I can find that one! If I order a subscription can I get your article…? I wonder!? 😃🤷♂️Great stuff as always. Thanks for keeping your channel political free and family friendly. My daughter loves your videos and it’s great for her to have a safe place to learn! Keep up the great work Doug!
Great video Dough. Thank you. Very helpful.
Great tuto..thanks for all your work thanks to help me to calme down and getting better... my daughter start the painting on the bears
Fantastic carving video, doug . Thanks for sharing ❤️
It seems like in the first few seconds of every video you create I start laughing at your silly carvings. They're serious carvings, but very funny. I know it's the humor is helping to drive me to try learning to carve, but I also remember my relatives of old whittling on the porch. 😊
The wood I initially got and told you about was very hard despite soaking in water two days. It got fuzzy and was still hard. Alcohol didn't work either. I ordered new wood from an American company who didn't say they got it from China whom I don't like, trust or want to do business with. Later today I'll try the new wood, but that's another company I won't reorder from. 😮
In my violin shop I taught a number of employees how to carve the things which were necessary. I'd say, "Carve with your fingers. Not your arms". Your repeated advice, phrased a bit differently here, is great....hopefully people listen and won't cut themselves.
Stoked for your article!
Thanks Doug!!
Love your work!
Hermoso trabajo
first bear was a 2" by 2" by 4" tall bear standing on a stump. took a long time and was well worth it. people marvelled that i could create such a thing. So did I ! now i am going to start on a 1" by 1" hillbilly. A great tool for layout and measuring is the General Tool model 300/1 6" flex precision stainless steel rule ( Amazon ). Rule Is wonderful for measuring and you turn the pocket clip around and crimp it just a tad so it fits tighter on the rule and it is a T square for marking lines around the wood. the width of the rule is 1/2" so it works well for drawing vertical centerlines on 1" by 1" blocks of wood. my first carving knife is a occt 1 3/4" and the 2 1/4" version i needed for the 2" bear i carved is ordered. Thank you Mr. Linker for youe videos and on to starting my 1 by 1 hillbilly!
Love it. Maybe I’ll finally whittle something besides a smaller stick.
Thanks 💰💰🧸🧸🧸🧸🧸
Congratulations on your magazine article.
Hey Doug. Could you teach me how to add the vest, t-shirt, tie or any other clothing please? Loving this series
🌟Thanks Doug!🌟 Had to go out and buy the ✨magazine✨ just as you suggested! Absolutely appreciate you taking the time to share your awesome bear carvings! I’m with you on leaving the claws off of the carvings…. When you see a real Bear you never see the claws unless it’s in the attack mode! From UTAH!
I have done 6 carvings this week. Three bears, two Gnomes , and a Mr. K Santa. I am having a blast! My favorite knife between the two OCCT carving knives i recently purchased is the 1 3/4" original walnut carver. I purchased the 2 1/4" for carving 2" blocks of wood and I do not like it as well as the smaller knife. Glad i seen this channel and went with Dougs favorite Occt whitler.
I really like your carving and your lessons. If there is anything I'd like to see improved, it is to make sure thing the camera is more in focus... maybe it's just my eyes or the quality of my monitor, but things often (at least in this video) seem just a little cloudy and not sharp. I do appreciate it when you hold your carving steady now and then after making cuts, so the viewer can get a nice look at your work. Thanks for another gr8 video... you're my inspiration. My gkids love the little gifts!
he makes it look like hes carving a stick of butter XD while im over here wrestling with my basswood :P
Doug. Would love to see a 1x1 series squirrel.
Chooo Chooo! 6:28
can't escape it
Hey brother. I am going to make a bear based on your bear for my moms birthday. When I seen your bear with the tie, I thought of a business bear. He is going to have a tie, suit jacket and I am going to make him a briefcase. 😊
Dad joke alert!…bear bell! Lol
Bearbell 🤣🤣
Отличный мужик 👍🏼 не зная Английского я все понимаю ♥️❤
I like how you made one that looks like Winnie the Pooh.
awesome! love listening to you and watching you carve its very calming! although i didn't rewind to check but at one point you looked like you cute ur finger but you never seemed to bleed so it must of just been a miner wound or it was a scare i didn't notice before that!
My hands are always chewed up from work but I never cut myself carving this one
glad you are ok@@dougLinker
thats cool! think he needs a tail though
Sorry!! Wich wood do you use to carve. My wood is too hard and I see your videos and for you is too soft...😂 Thanks (i watch you from Spain!!🎉)
Lol do the bear bells come in 1 pound weight???
Where can I get the 2x1x1 inch blocks wood craving blocks? For mini bears and hillbillies?
why does your knife cut like butter through the wood? I know it's sharp but I can't get my knife to do it. Seems like it makes it so much easier/better to work with.
Have you made a bird yet?
Birdy
How new(green) is the basswood you use? i have some i have had for a lot of years and is hard to work with and make nice faceted cuts.
not green at all -some is years old.winter cut wood is best
❤
😁👍🏼
Woooooo first comment! # dougs the best
Ok, how's about some snow men ?
Hi say the measurements in cm too pls
Do you plans to carve a rolling bear
have you ever carved a dog? A puppy would be adorable.
Link doesn't work anymore. 😪😪
Not sure how he got his feet in there😉
It's like watching Bob Ross but he be whitlin' wood instead of paintin' with paint. I feel my blood pressure properly regulated. Now I need me some wood, a knife, and some bandages to make me a "happy little bear". 🔪❤🩹
Gradioso trabajo te manda un beso en el pedorro saludos
