I really love this talk through your process. Sometimes when a craftsman makes their pieces look so seamless and effortless, it's easy to forget or miss how much planning and time goes into just finding the form in the medium. Really insightful and interesting stuff. Great video, as always, Mike! Hope you and yours are well~
Thank you! I've been thinking that I needed to show a little more of the process and the difficulties that I come across. In the past I avoided showing the defects in the wood and my struggles. But I think it's more constructive to show that there is an enormous amount of planning that goes into the project, even before I begin to carve.
I really appreciate and enjoy your shares!
Im from indonesia..im order..
@@StinnettSticks I love the cane do you have a page I would like to have one exactly like that beautiful work
3:10 “I know there’s a snake in this piece of wood. I’ve just got to keep on carving until I find it.” Wonderful video as always.
Thank you very much, Colin! I'm glad you enjoyed it!
yes i thought that was awesome too
@@StinnettSticks actually I ask my self how long time you been in this work. .. how many years if you don’t mind tell me you done very well we appreciate that thanks 🙏
@@mohammadalmalki6689 Thanks, Mohammad! I've been carving for over ten years.
@@StinnettSticks I wish have your golden hands 🙌 keep going then try to learn someone who can get your experience.
It's hard to believe that I've been watching you and Pearl for over four years. It sure hasn't been hard to watch you and Pearl for over for years though.
I'm glad you still enjoy watching us, Mark! Thank you!
Two minutes in: "I bet this guy has an adorable-ass dog."
A few minutes later: "Damn right."
I finally scraped together 50 dollars for some tools to remove big pieces. My fingers are too weak from illness to do much with even the sharpest tools. I have gifted all my work. It made people really happy. You started me on this road. Thank you so much.
Your pieces never fail to leave me wide mouthed in awe ! Stunning piece as always love your work Mike
Thank you very much!
Your literally the type of guy I want to be when I retire
I agree I think I'm almost there
Amazing👍
If you are not already like him then you will never be.
Haha thought the exact same thing
@Troy smith I’m a hell of a good person. I used to be a jam up lineman for a power company. Be like me
Pearl is just so darling and is always ready to explore another wonderful piece of art thank you love relaxing to your videos god bless to you and your family
A classic case of the “ one that got away”! Interesting to see how you “found the snake”, and as always, a stunning result. Thank you. Stay safe and well.
Yes. I would have liked to see what that fish looked like! Thank you very much, Jude!
This is craftsmanship that is a rare thing these days. You have an amazing talent dear sir.
I just had the best 14 minutes of my day, Took me right there with you.. What a piece and what lovely original music in the background.
Thank you! I'm really glad you enjoyed it!
I just started making little wood carvings out of scrap wood pieces. So far I made a polar bear, a toucan, and a hippo peaking it's head out the water. You inspire me so much sir. I can't wait for your next video. But until then, I've got many more of yours to watch.
Cant tell you how much lve been waiting for this. Little did you know you just made my day.
Thanks, Bobby! I'm glad to hear that!
Any chance of buying one of your work please? Thanks ☺️
every time I watch your videos I tell my husband I have to buy one of these amazing creations. I am truly amazed by your talent!
Couldn’t tell if it was real or not such a masterpiece my friend 👏
Wow. Such patience and integrity
You never disappoint. I can't begin to imagine how much work that is. I'm glad you take the time to make these pieces if art.
Thank you, Samantha! It's a lot of work, but I enjoy it!
Absolutely magnificent watching a true craftsman at work. I’m spellbound during your videos.
Another masterpiece!
'Usually a way to work through any problem?' Thank you for the inspiration. It means a lot coming from an artist / problem solver like yourself. Peace. Thanks again. Cool stick.
High level of Art. Nobody else could be better than you! 🙏 God bless you! Amazing!
Thank you!
A very patient artist that is the most beautiful most realistic man made snake i have seen. Keep on working so we can see more.
you are the MONSTER in carving! god! i just love all your works!
Who in God's earth disliked this masterful ARTIST!!!!!!
55 idiots, as of now.....
People with serious snake phobias, there's literally no other reason one could dislike these vids
Beautiful cane and a great encounter with a gorgeous juvenile bullsnake! Must have been quite the fun day
Amazing work. I've been whittling away at walking sticks recently inspired by your videos. True talent
Great to hear that! I hope you're really enjoying it! Thanks for the kind words!
I love these longer videos and the adventures you take in between carving. I especially like this one because it shows that these projects don’t just come together in a matter of minutes but really shows the labor-some process it takes to create something special.
I believe Michael Angelo said something quite similar about approaching a block of marble: He knew the statue already existed within the marble, he just had to chisel away until he found it.
God bless you, Mr. Stinnett 🇺🇸❣️ Another masterpiece‼️
Thank you very much! It was inside the wood, but it sure was hard to find it this time, haha! God bless!
The best ,no one comes close ,one of a kind your a special person 👍
Patience and a steady hand make for a great artist. Thanks for sharing
Your snake canes are the coolest! well pretty much all of your works are amazing! Super cool! Keep up the good work and say hi to pearl for me!
Thank you, Noah! Pearl says "Hi".
That bullsnake came up to meet the master carver himself! Even he knows you are legend sir!
Haha! Thank you kindly!

Thank you my friend! Pearl says hi!
Simply. Amazing. Your an amazing artist. Unlocking the mystery’s inside of wood. Just beautiful work.
you should sculpt an eastern bluebird walking stick but anything you make always turns out great
Thank you! That's a great idea!
Just WOW. I'm blown away...again by your incredible skill. I absolutely love the snake.

Thank you very much!
I want to thankyou for these videos,your attention to detail is phenomenal and your patience is commendable. That being said i find that your voice is calming and with that and the music you play and your trips into the outdoors is really beneficial to me when im having an anxiety attack i can turn on one of your videos and it helps me to relax thankyou ever so much and i look forward to new videos
The realism of your work amazes me.
Thank you, Mike!
Just saw a Snake carved Stick aged 4000 years old found in Finland. Amazing to know people already craving sticks for so long ago 🐍👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Very good.... Wood Máster 🛠
Excelente trabajo!!! 👏👏👏
Thank you!
Not sure what I like better,, the carving or that beautiful eddy you were fishing in. Thanks again for a most relaxing and inspirational video!
You're very welcome! That's usually a really good fishing hole, but that day was not good. I think the water was still too cold for good fishing. What ever bit my hook must have been pretty big though, to break my line like that!
Have A Blessed And Most Beautiful ❤️ Day. Thanks as always 4 sharing 🙊🙉🙈

This is my first ever time watching one of your videos. I am already in love with you and your dog. Let alone how amazing your work is
Amazing. I can’t thank you enough for subtly sending a message that kids need to hear: sometimes things don’t work out as planned, but never give up. My 10-year-old son and I are absolutely awed by your work, and I appreciate so much that you’ve found a way to use RUclips in the best possible way. Thank you so, so much!
Magnificent, magnificent and yet again magnificent! What a true inspiration of art.
