About bloody time too Dougie!! I was seriously getting worried about your silence!! Glad you are back.
Doug I'm so sorry to hear about your mom. Hard to believe you could think of us in the middle of this sad time. I just want to say thank you!!! I'll be praying for you and your family. 💔
Thx but it was awhile back just took some time to get stone in
Missed you Doug! Glad you're back as I've really enjoyed the 1x1 series. I'll begin working on my flock to supplement my parliament of owls.
I'm sure you've heard this before, but your voice has an ASMR/Bob Ross kind of effect on me. And I love how you appreciate the tiny joys and give words to it
Birds are a huge part of my life too I am watching this with a macaw on my knee and I see an amazon out of the corner of my eye. I have had parrots most of my life so this should be a fun carve.
Your mothers marker is a beauty mr linker.
Thank you for bringing us a comfort bird adventure. I like to carve them and leave them behind to bring others joy. Or place them at markers as a memory and a reminder I have been there instead of coins.
A comfort to rub on, a comfort to carve and your videos are a comfort to watch.
Thank you very much.
What a great guy, love all your videos and will re watch them every once in a while as i carve, you introduced me to wood carving and i wish that you will continue to be happy carving, don´t worry about content creating as much as enjoying your craft. Cheers
Right on, I get to be the second to comment! I love your videos Doug! Thanks for getting me and my kids into carving! I love the 1 x 1 series
I carved a bird when I was about 17 years old, the only characters I had until last winter after learning from you. I was 71 last winter and enjoying your teaching
I'm busy with chores and garden but I want to learn more in late fall
Thanks
So sorry for your loss Doug, thanks for all you do and prayers are going up! 👍👍👍🤩🤩🤩💯💯💯❤️❤️❤️🙏🙏🙏
Good to see you Doug❣️ I live in the woods with birds and love to carve them- this is so simple and sweet, thank you!!
🥰
Guess you have been busy Doug. Great to see you back. Love these birds.
Hello Doug. Glad to see you back
Hi Doug, I'm going off topic a little but the very first whittle I did was your 5-minute Wizard, which ended up being a bit different to your design. It is done in 360 degree 3" x 1" design with little feet and all. All my friends love it and I never leave home without it, I treat it like a comfort bird (talking to it and handling it when thinking). I call it a 'pocket person' and have made other 'pocket people' to give to friends - gnomes and tree spirits especially. Here in UK, a rabbits foot is carried (usually on a chain) as a good luck charm and that is how I treat these little 2x1 and 3x1 pocket people. Yes, I'm probably a bit nuts but I love these little things in life.
Hi Doug good to see you back. I for one can't go to long between a fix of a Doug Linker carving video.
Thanks Doug. Sure missed you . Hope all is well
I was literally looking for the previous version of this video this morning and was wondering why it was gone. Now I know😂. Great work!
Thank you. I will carve a ton of these. My grandkids will love them!!
Well this was the most relaxing thing I've seen all day.
If it wasn't midnight here I would have started one by now. They look fantastic....Think I better wait till the morning 🤠 😁🏴
Thanks again for sharing.
Gooood evening from central Florida! Hope everyone has a great night! Thanks for the video!
Beautiful birds Doug, thank you.
I was using the earlier comfort bird tutorial to learn whittling. Was dismayed when I couldn't find it today. Happy to know it was replaced with this one!
Missed you Bud. Hope all is well. Great idea these Comfort birds. I know a couple of people who will love these. Weekend job for me. 👍😆👍
Since you last video, I"ve been thinkin' on a Little Birdie, Lo & Behold ... you show up with one just for me. Thanks so much. You have been missed, as you see in the commets, and by me as well. Thanks for this from a very beginner chipper.
Exactly what I was looking for in size and shape, and surely enough it came from Doug Linker again!
Thank you, Doug.
Doug, I’m not a carver but sometimes I watch just to hear your story. We loved your camping videos and miss them so much. Last I saw you were going to do something on your folk’s homestead? Something must have happened….
These are the sweetest little thing I’m going to give it a try so sorry to hear about your mamma ❤️
Thanks for showing us Doug. Very nice! 😁👍😁👍
Glad you are back in the game. Hope you enjoyed your summer. I really enjoy your videos including your hiking and camping trips. You are a great teacher.
i started watching you about 5 years ago and have been carving ever since
Awesome. I will def make this!
Very nice and you make it look so easy
Love the little bird!!
No freebies I used the code and got the discount no freebies thank you for the lesson
You definately should have
Missed you Doug 😊 love the birds❤
I have a couple of comfort bird blank shapes at the Artsy in Woods show. I have purchased the Carving Comfort Animals. In the Carving Comfort Animals book are directions for the Comfort Bird. Also, the Comfort Bird was a feature in one of the issues of Woodcarving Illustrated magazine. I've purchased the book Carving Comfort Animals. I've renewed my subscription for Woodcarving Illustrated magazine. I've kept every copy of the Woodcarving Illustrated magazine since I've subscribed to it. I couldn't tell you how many Woodcarving Illustrated magazines I have!!
Great video. Touching story. I really appreciate the way you do this carving without needing to cut out a blank. Thank you, thank you. Keep up the great work you do!
This is fantastic Doug. Great to see you back again. 😀👍
Hey Doug! Hope you are doing well bud!
Thanks Doug, loving the 1x1 series. I did a few from your other video, definitely will do these as well. Please do the snowman before Christmas.
Hey Doug I'd like to say that as I'm in hospice and your videos are so relaxing and I will say you are the woodcarvers Bob Ross thanks
Je viens de commencer ce hobby à 50 ans pour évacuer le stress. Merci pour toutes ces explications et cette série des 1x1..I'll do the comfort bird today 😊
Love the channel Doug dude! Can you do more tree wood spirits I love doing them bro!😂🙌🇬🇧
Saw your article in WCI, nice job and great message from a fellow “ants in your pants” diagnosee…
Beautiful stone and beautiful work the 🐦🦜 birts look very nice.
Great as always…..
Thanks again Doug, I enjoy these wood carving tutorials so much, the least I can do is buy you a cup of coffee - All the best
thanks Josh!!
Great carving Doug!
Thank you 🙏🏻
Awesome video
Will try some of these. Did some 1x1 cardinals, they were a hit. Thanks, Doug!
Nice project, die one at your last video. Got the new woodcarving i yesterday and saw your interview. 🎉😊
Sorry for your loss
Lovely little birds. Thanks for sharing. ❤
Hi Doug,
Happy to see you again, Thanks for doing this - I look forward to carving one of these birds - wishing you all the best 🌝
Lots of fun to make. Thanks Doug!
Carve a golf ball ,that’s the new thing!
I have a video on them already back a year or two
15:21 Thank you for sharing your talent. I especially like this comfort bird video and have been learning from your 1x1 series. Thank you!
Doug glade your ok I absolutely love your content always relaxing and inspiring I suppose the comfort birds was old school fidget spinner I use a rosary of course its wooden with padre pio on it but a comfort bird I has to try normally im a branch carving fox but basswood rubbing off on me lol thankies for sharing but I like yo see how to carve a moral mushroom you showed them but not how to carve them 🍻👍🦊🐾🇮🇹🇺🇲
Gonna have to do one day but have been trying to stick with knife only in the beginning but one day
@@dougLinker cool can't wait I carve normal mushrooms with wood spirits in base looking for a new challenge a basic tool for carving has gouges and chisel and hook knife it's a flexcut whittling jack schrade makes one but I found steel too soft can be done but needs stropping more and edge needs te profiling further back to make it work good not good like flexcut knives but ok
I’m loving your 1 X 1 series. I really like this comfort bird. Was wondering if you will be doing a Santa for this series? Would be great to give or hang on the Christmas tree. Thanks.
Oh for sure there will be a few
Nice one Dougie. ❤
Miss ya dougster, be nice to see a truck camp carving series!
Would you be able to do a video on how to carve soapstone? I like the look of the bird and know nothing about carving that medium. I could look up how to do it, but you have a way of keeping things simple and understandable for beginners. Thanks!
Lovely thanks Doug, Flexcut Knives are good as well ive always used them they feel good in your hand , tried to buy a Hlvie knife but said not in stock
I like their detail knife, customized the handle by sanding off the varnish and ebonizing the ashwood, then coated it in raw linseed to seal it. It looks great!
I think I’ll carve a bird🕊️
Très content d'avoir de tes nouvelles! Désolé pour ta mère. Je ferai des oiseaux en sa mémoire. Merci.
Thanks!
Thanks!!
interesting
I wish you’d do fish like the birds, I have a problem with fish
Hey buddy. Are you ok planing on going back to the spot at the secret lake?
Hi Doug - great to see yet another wonderful video from you! Of all the carving videos available, I always enjoy your style, content and delivery! On a side note - where do you get your pencils? I can find them online, but they are not cheap!
They popped up online for me and i got sucked in and paid for them lol
Thx Sir Doug ✌🏻. So relaxing to watch. Plz say Hello to your delightful wife for me.
Doug, what do you think about practicing on potatoes? i've been getting into hand carving recently and have enjoyed your videos. thanks for sharing!
Great little bird. I’m working on some cardinals myself.
Do you happen to have a tutorial for a wood spirit on a walking stick. Someone gave a couple of sticks I can practice on.
Thanks for giving us the great videos.

Here's a good video on how to carve a basic woodspirit into sticks, hope this helps 👍
I do ,just scroll back a bit in my videos it’s one of my favourites
@@dougLinker I found it. I’ve been watching it off and on. I’ve even saved it. I love it. Thanks so much for sharing your work.
I'm not telling anyone to buy it if you don't have it, but a grided place mat or cutting board might be a faster or beneficial way to mark measurements. They're very multipurpose.
You’ve seen one on my desk in videos past but hard to carry in pocket lol
Hello again Doug. Are you no longer affiliated with Wood Carver's Magazine?
Hello Doug, with what tool did you sand the butternut bird with?? Great video❤❤
Just sandpaper by hand
@@dougLinker Thanks...
Hello, what tree do you use for this birds? what tree is better to use?
Doug which GoPro do you have.
It’s a dgi action cam
Can this be done on a 1 1/2 x 1 1/2 x 2 1/2 instead of a 1 x 1 x 2 1/2
Your 1x1 series is catching on...목각인형-어린요정 조각하기 Woodcarving-Carve a child gnome...check him out.
I bought a beavercraft set and your knife cuts through your wood so easily, but this beavercraft set is impossible to cut
Ummm this is a lay-up....
Looks like you're not much for canoeing, camping, or fishing anymore. Guess you don't care for it anymore. Have you lost following? Good Luck Doug!
