Thank you
Patricia
Thank you for sharing this info, im sure it will help. 💖😁
"Pinky out", great for drinking tea and power carving 🙂👍
hahaha! right on!
....and shooting pool/billards :)
Exactly! Great info! ✌️
You are so natural on camera! Great technique!
Thank you Bro! Only if you seen how many takes I do haha.
Thank you Matt, Good video, I am a scroll saw artist but I want to learn power carving and I am watching your tutorials and they are very helpful
Awesome, thank you!
When it doubt pinky out 👌🏻
Didn't give much thought to my finger placement. Now I am way more aware! Thank you!
Glad it helped my friend!
Love these types of videos! Basics, Thank You!
Glad that you are enjoying them!
Thank you. I ordered my Foredom kit because of you and you're helping me to figure this carving thing out.
Wow! Awesome man! Keep up the good work!
Great technique video, Matt! Thanks for helping us get better!!
Thank you, Rusty!!!
My mother was an art teacher and taught the pinky anchor for drawing and since much of relief carving power is like drawing, I appreciate the advice for using it with the rotary carver and the variations for height can also be applied with shading in drawing.
Right on man!
you are good at what you do and able to teach others what you do. Thank you
Thank you! Glad it helped you!
Ty for sharing 💓
Glad you enjoyed it!
I use the pinky when i do ceramics. I know exactly what you are saying. God bless you. Awesome job ♡ from texas
Hey Donna! Right on! Good to have a fellow Texan here :)
Great video as always Matt
Thank for the great videos .i have seen lots of others they are either way too fast and do not talk instead they have annoying music...this is very educational ..thumbs UP ,,,,,,,,,,
Glad the videos are helping you!
This is all new to me, you explain everything really well, thank you
Gosh, I love watching your videos, you've such a joy about you that's so sweet. Thanks for sharing your knowledge, much appreciated.
You are so welcome!
Thank you for these types of videos
Glad you enjoyed it bro!
Well I must have watch too many of your videos I have just ordered a complete power carving kit so can’t wait to get started
Oh wow! What did you get?
This has been very helpful. Thank you so much.
Glad it helped you!
As a dental hygienist, you pinky thumb 🤙lesson is called a fulcrum, and thank you I enjoyed your content. (Commented years later lol)
Haha thank you for the comment!
Wow.. thank you for those techniques, I will put them on practice 👍👍.
Glad you found hem useful!
Enjoy your vids! You explain instructions very well and I have learned lots. Keep it up!
Awesome, thank you!
Interesting
Glad you are enjoying the videos!
Have you ever tried the wen rotary tool?
I watch alot of you videos , I am a lefty and it not so easy for me to do somethings like the way you put your pinky but i do try and uncomfortable for me any other ideas I can try
You are an excellent teacher. I've learned so much from your tutorials. THANK YOU!!! Inspiring!
So glad you are learning a lot!
Great video but the music was a bit loud and distracting. Appreciate the info.
Thank you for your feedback. I’ve recently turned down the volume in my newer videos.
Excellent
Thank you!
Great post. I'm learning a lot from your channel. Quick question - is there anything different that a lefty needs to think about with these techniques?
Thank you! Yes, you will have to adapt to the normal rotation of the burr, which is normally designed for right-handed people. Unless you have a unit such as the Foredom that will allow you to go both directions. With practice I am sure you will be fine though!
thanks for the tips! yeah I'm running in to the common drawback of a Dremel, too. it just doesn't have the torque when you need to hog out a lot of material, esp hardwoods. great for sanding and polishing, but bogs really bad with really coarse burrs. sometimes I resort to the flex attachment for my bench grinder
anyone else hear Chewbacca when that rough burr hit the wood?😂
Thanks for sharing
Thank you brother to see your machine.i never seen like this machine bt I was imagine like this machine we need bkz now also I see many experts people's are curve working like 100 years ago. Tajmahal was made twenty years twenty thousands people's but now how long can finish like that work.cnc machine can't use no problem but other way we can take help from power tools. I think curving works 50 percent power tools and 50 percent hand made nicely can finish. If we don't have proper machine we can use modify the power tools. thank you very much.
Glad the video helped!
good lesson , short and sweet.
Thank you bro!
I always get inspired by you but i just can't afford a proper dremel
If m having x brand dermal then I have to use that brand bit or any bit can work for my tool?
Keep giving those tips, thanks for sharing with others. What type of wood do you use for your hatchet handles and do you start off with a dowel
Thank you bro! I use hickory blanks from an online supplier.
My pinky doesn’t bend like your does, but it still works, thanks for the video.
Hi from Dublin Ireland 🇮🇪✌
Good to have you here!
@@CorneliusCreations thank you kindly. I'm irish and enjoyed you celt design I gave it a go myself and it turned out very well. So thanks for that
Happy to hear that!!
@@CorneliusCreations wow you really do read the comments. Now that's freaking cool
Thanks for the tips! =)
Glad you found them helpful!
Top man !
Thank you!
i use my pinky when drawing that way i can get much straighter lines and more fluid curves . didn't know it could be translated to powercarving though!
Yes sir!
Help!!! I love your channel and have been subscribed for a long time. I moved from my 690 sq ft workshop to a 175 sq ft casita. I'm using a Vacmaster shop vac with an Oneida cyclone system attached to a 4" hose with a Big Gulp hood. The area for wood working needs to be completely closed off from the rest of my studio due to silks, Pearl's and a air/heat pump system that has a large intake vent in the middle of the room. I took a harbor freight work bench and put it in the closet. I want the SR Foredom, Ram Micro motor, band saw and drill press in this area. I thought I would make a small intake vent thru the closet but still in the studio and put a desk top air conditioner/swamp cooler hang in front. My question is.... Do you know anyone or how to make a sanding room/tent so I can protect everything else. The slabs and driftwood will be cut down in my garage so I can work on smaller pieces in my studio. Any ideas? Suggestions? Thank you for your time. I look forward to hearing from you. Raven
Hey Raven! Thank you for being subbed for a long time! The first thing I’d do is buy some Visqueen and make some sort of square tent structure with it. Maybe you can create a square with PVC as support for it? Just make sure you seal it good and get that ventilation in it!
Thanks man for the info. Very cool to know about.
Glad you enjoyed the video man!
Thank you very much,
I need the vidéo for how graving the marble ,
Glad it helped!
I did learn something today! What's the best wood you recommend for wood carving? What do you use?
Hey there! For starting out basswood is best
Brilliant thank you for sharing.
Glad you enjoyed it!
showing support...like #2
Hola desde argentina
Me gustaría saber que herramientas usa???
Gracias!!
Which Dremel are you using . Iam thinking of getting the Dremel 4000 .I would like to carve wording to wood also some designs? Which do u recommend
I am using the foredom here. But the dremel will work fine for beginners if thats too expensive
Do you have a video on each type of drill bit and how they are supposed to be used? I'm a total noob and I'm sort of winging it on what bit to use to get whatever job I'm trying to do done.
I will have one hopefully soon!
I’ve been power carving for about a year now. I’ve been using a dremel, but I’ve been considering investing in a Foredom. Is the difference in performance worth the price?
Foredom is a lot more horsepower to "hog" through the wood and is more consistent when you run into hard wood grain. If Carving is your hobby and you do it often nothing is wrong with treating yourself to one. Well worth the money.
What would you say to use if I’m trying to create barnwood texture out of new wood? I need something that gets down in the grain but by old barnwood that has been sitting out in the weather it’s slick down in the grain.
And yet once again'',,,,,,,,thank you. Watching your videos is never lost time.
Glad to hear that Gerald!
what do you recommend for very beginners for equipment for wood carving
For beginning wood carvers a cheaper Dremel or flex shaft tool. I have links in description
Is this foredom the same as a dremel but smaller or they actually two different tools?
Kimberley Patrick They are 2 totally different tools with different features and specs.
Thank you, I really needed tips for carving Because I want to carve a rabbit holding a heart out of a log.
That’s an awesome idea!
what are the best bits to carve with
I have recently made a video on it
How about the direction of rotation of the bur? Seems like when I do letters or a specific design if the rotation of the bur is going towards to design I get a little of "peeling up" on the design and a line of wood fibers combed up right on the line. Seems like if i want a precision line on something, I want the direction of the bur rotating away from the line or whatever I am wanting to keep. Of course it maybe that I am not using brand new sharp burs but I am using them until they are starting to burn before I throw them away.
I’m trying to understand fully what you are saying, it is very hard unless I was there to see it. I recommend getting a piece of wood and making straight lines down it with a pencil. Practice staying right outside the lines (right next to it) and use different angles with your rotary burr until you get used to what the bit is doing and how it is reacting with the direction you are going. Make a mental note of what happens when you move right, when you move left. Let the burr do the cutting for you, don’t press too hard on it. Through this process you will eliminate error and start seeing exactly how you need to hold and direction you need to pull the burr.
keeping your pinky out is also just good etiquette
Hahaha. Right on
funkenstein420 - Indubitably! One can not carve without the pinky out for others may think the wrong things!! 😉😂 Love these videos, and yes I subbed! 🙂
Which Dremel is best for carving out bigger projects. I have a stylo, but hasn’t enough power for a simple design.
The best one right now is the 4000 series
Heavy duty flexible drive Sami rotary 3.2 hand piece and a set of 30 burs
What about carving small statues like bald eagles,is it better to use one piece of wood or cheat and carve small sections and glue them together?!
Always one piece of wood if you can get away with it. You will get inconsistencies with constantly gluing small parts
Hello , what is the name of the bur you used in the thumb technique please?where can i buy them on line?
Just cant getvthe thumb one oooh it's so close to the spinning bur
Chewbacca 4:13
billiard players can relate to the pinky out base foundation ;p
Haha yep!
Bad Thumb Technique
Pinky technique is good for fine work but your recommendation of pulling stump cutter to your thumb is very bad. "Let the burr do the work for you" is good advice but you should not pull into your thumb. You do not need the extra pressure and you are greatly increasing chance you will lose flesh. If you feel you must use that technique, wear a leather glove on the exposed thumb. Do not use cloth (provides almost no protection) or "no-cut" glove. it you hit it with your burr, you will damage your Foredom or other tool.
But thanks for your video. Well programed, good detail
Thank you for your comment. The Foredom DVD instructed to this technique exactly this way.
what is the tool u r using for carving
Foredom
Where'd you pick up your cordless vac
Amazon for the win!
I'll have to check it out and see if I can find one like it.
Love the intro song who is it
I can't remember.. It is a song from soundstripe
Sweet thank you. Also i just want to let you know i have always picked a pen up and draw so stuff. But you have inspired me to expand my power to the dremel if my calculations are correct i should be able to take over the world in no time at all. Thanks........ Muuwahahaha
Haha that's awesome! When you take over the world don't forget me!
On a variable speed dremel, what rpm should you be doing the carving at please? I'm worried about burning out the motor.
That depends on the wood. I am actually fixing to cover this topic soon on my new channel, I will give you the details soon :)
No problem fella. Happy to wait. Love what you do. It inspires me.
What is this tool called. Amazon did not supply in pakistan.
This is the Foredom.
What rpm do you run these at?
It depends on the wood and burr, but somewhere around 17,000rpm generally
@@CorneliusCreations I was mostly asking specifically what you were using with the tools you have listed. I should have been more specific but appreciate the answer. Do you find that mid level speed works well for most applications? I've been learning and like most things, there is a lot of conflicting info.
Oh yeah, I know exactly what you mean! Here is a formula for you. A lot of stock removal (wood removal) you need to go with lower speeds. For very high detail go with higher speeds (Higher speeds will produce smoother cuts). But with that being said. A lot of this is figured out with time in the saddle. Every wood and burr will be different. I keep mine always around mid speed as a starting point. It is going to be important just to jump in it and start drawing your own conclusions on it. Hope this helps my friend!
@@CorneliusCreations at least this gives me a good base of where to start, and more or less confirm some of my thoughts based on my minimal experience. I appreciate the help.
Right on man! I'm here if you need any help!
Great explanation. Thanks for sharing.
Where is the on/off switch at your rotary tool? Or do you have a switch somewhere else?
Mine has a on/off switch at the motor and a foot pedal for the speed
👍🙏
🤛🏻👍🏻
4:10 chewbacca in pain
Lol
Cornelius creations check out my power carving at Currahee Twisted Sticks. I am self taught, mostly use knives and dremel. Wanting to a more powerful carver but not sure what to get.
I would grab a Foredom!
Earl Scruggs pinky
Yes sir!
machine name why
Foredom
Danger.... You have some great videos I've seen. I can say, that I have not tried carving yet, as life demands have been taking my time at the moment. I must say, the video was not what i expected with 'technique' for carving. I thought you might show how to make various textures or types of cuts, etc. You show how to brace the carving bit on the shaft. I get the pinky more than the thumb, because I pursue safety & it just does not look safe. I must admit, to me, it looks like you are using your thumb for leverage, as a sort of clamp of the wood, to hold against the carving. I'd rather try to use a clamp, & not endanger my thumb. At the least, it seems cut proof gloves would be good. I feel concerned about this technique being promoted, to be honest. I'd tell people get your leverage from using a clamp, & position your work piece in a direction that facilitates good movement of the tool. I would challenge you to try this, & see if you cannot get the exact same leverage, using a small weighted clamp (such as the drememl clamp that rotates in all directions on a ball piece, with a tightening ring) to hold & leverage the work piece. If you want to brace your pinky/ thumb, you could even do it on the clamp, not the wood. Also, the idea came to me that a lump of clay, such as plastilina clay or maybe a DIY small sandbag or hand brace-jig, might also make a nice 'brace' for your hand to rest on, rather than stressing your pinky. If you carve a lot, I'd bet that could become painful.
U have a advantage ur pinky is bent so u have better control lucky u lol
haha! Yes, My pinky is pretty flexible lol
Hi friend, you give good ideas, but you speak a lot. Your videos will be much better if you talk a little less and show the work you do. Good luck with.
Thank you for the honest feedback my friend. If you catch my newer videos there is more of a balance between work and talk. Thank you for your comment!
ME.
OK LOu reed's
Carve a bear or a bird
Great idea!
Omg the music. If I want to hear music I'll play it while you're talking. Stop the music in your vids. Can't watch/listen.
I’ve made the music much lower in my newest videos! I appreciate the feedback!
Fluent** not fluid... lol
How about both lol
Speeking toooooo much
