Foredom Tool 1/8 & 1/4 hp models

[@notjoelaporta]

What bits do you recommend for the foredom? Bought a bunch of 1/8 shaft bits but watching you your bits are definitely bigger and getting the job done faster. Thanks

[@JeffCoats]

I like all 1/4” cutters and the medium larger round/bull noise cylinder is my go to. 1/4” shaft in blue my next and then the 1/4” sander

[@notjoelaporta]

@@JeffCoats do you recall which brand? I’m looking at Kutzall burrs but they have black (extra course) a silver color (course) and gold (fine)

[@JeffCoats]

Check out Foredoms page too

[@FlightsCancelledOutdoors]

Where do you get your wood for heads and what do you get?

[@JeffCoats]

Currently northern New York buy Maine and Michigan are good choices too.

[@duckmanbhb]

Nice video Jeff. I like to learn from everyone. Heads are tough for me and especially doing a detailed bill. Good work and thank you.

Thank you Bruce 👍🙌👍

[@richardhannan-oe1ez]

Jeff, I am a new carver and am only interested in making gunning decoys. I really appreciate all your videos! Question - after you finish painting your decoys using acrylics, do you varish or use a matte water-based glazing topcoat (s)? I am using Golden and Jo sonja, Liquitex and Traditions acrylics. Thanks for your input!

[@JeffCoats]

Thank you and thank you for following along with us! I suggest Goldens heavy body matte and your good to go, just the paint alone no clear coat

[@azwheeling8189]

Thanks for sharing your talent! Can you tell me what is the name/source of power carving bit you are using for carving in the eye channels? Thanks!

[@JeffCoats]

Thank you and thank you for following along with us! It’s a blue “fine” 1/4” kutzal cutter

[@brettcox7941]

Jeff, What size compressor do I need? I don’t think my 10 gal tank would keep that tool spinning very long. Great instructional video! You don’t over explain. I just want to know what time it is. I don’t want to build a watch.

[@JeffCoats]

Thank you and thank you 👍🙌👍
No air needed on 110volts with the foredom

[@davidhaines4927]

Do you have a video on how to carve a head with a knife? I don’t own a fordom

[@JeffCoats]

Do you have access to a bandsaw?

[@davidhaines4927]

@@JeffCoats yes I do sir

[@JeffCoats]

@@davidhaines4927 super- same concept them, do your bandsaw cuts and then knife like you’d use a foredom…. don’t have a video sorry but have done it at decoys shows- the better your wood the easier to knife carve I think. Style of knife too

[@davidhaines4927]

@@JeffCoats thank you sir

[@kennettestewart2060]

where do you get those tools?

[@JeffCoats]

Check out amazon

[@petegawlinski637]

Jeff, loved the video. What is the type of bit you are using to take off most of the larger material? The thicker one.

[@JeffCoats]

Missed this my apologies!
The large Kutzall Bull Nose 👍

[@BrianHockings]

How are you using a burner to add detail around the bill?

[@JeffCoats]

Just burning like I’d use a knife to cut it in

[@MarionL-zq4qr]

Just found your videos and uploaded your podcasts that I’m looking forward to listening to👍. Do you by chance sell rough out blanks ( I do not have a bandsaw)?

[@JeffCoats]

Thank you and we appreciate you following along with us!! What species?

[@MarionL-zq4qr]

Black duck or mallard

[@MarionL-zq4qr]

[@scottbronston430]

What thickness is the head. Like a 2-4. 1 5/8 thick

[@JeffCoats]

2.75” cedar that I cut to 2.5”

[@scottbronston430]

Where do you order the wood and eyes

[@JeffCoats]

@@scottbronston430 alittle bit of everywhere on the cedar… eyes from Tohickon

[@joemascolo9679]

Is that white cedar?

[@JeffCoats]

Thank you yes it is
