Thank you so much for this video! I've really struggled with shading and now I realize my technique is terribly flawed. You have no idea how many scraps have been chucked into the bin!
Thanks for the tip about not rotating the shader! Apparently, I've been doing it the wrong way and had just about given up on using it (going back to the pear shader) because my work never looks right when I use it. Now I know why!
We appreciate the time you take for us amatures to improve and hone our skills. Ive found myself using your shader for beveling and most of my tooling. Its sort of a all in one at times. Thank you sir.
Great video! I like that you highlight the truly basic tools. I’ve been doing this for over nine years, and I still like to “warm up” before each project on a scrap piece.
How sharp should a swivel knife be? Butter knife, hunting knife, razor, paper cutter,? Not sure mine is correct but it is very smooth without drag. Thanks for the tip videos!!
Hey great little video im going to be giveing this a try ,but my question is ,if one doesnt have the particular shader but just has the pear shader ,can one achieve something simeler to this ? oh and if i can throw a 2nd question at ya ,i see you doing a lot of floral designs and vines and such ,but not objects ,like say a motorcycle ..lol and yes i have a sketch of one and for my first attempt at tooling with my newly acquired tooling set i dont think i did to bad ,but id like to give it more detail as in shading,other then the tires im not sure as to where i might shad in .
These are tools we typically carry on our website twentythreeplus.com At the moment the full kits are out of stock. We’re hoping to restock in a couple weeks. There are individual tools available though.
Yes lighting is so important. I will try to remember to show them in a video but here is a link to the ones I use. Typically I use one over my right shoulder and that keeps the shadows away from where I’m tooling. I use the second one during videos from a second angle to try and cut other shadows a bit. amzn.to/3iCpkyi
It’s just me. I know it. I recognize my problem… but i have to release by saying it. The top right corner was left dry & it kills me if i don't say anything. Sorry. You make go on with your normal broadcasting.

You’re welcome, I’m glad this helped!
Thank You Joe, very helpful!!!
Thank you for the great tips 👍🏻
Awesome , I wish I could buy the kit but not worth to ship to Germany , I got to put a set together, thanks for all the great tips tricks.
Always a pleasure watching your instructional videos. I pick up something with each one.
Thats crazy good and very helpful man appreciate it!

It’s such a handy tool!
Thank you for sharing your experience, my tooling is looking better all the time.
Thanks for the tooling tips, you're encouragement to drive on is motivational.

It seems like it doesn’t matter how far you get in any skill, it always comes down to doing the basic things well.
Excellent video! Thanks for sharing this.
Thanks Joe! This helps my journey.

You’re welcome!
Great video, what weight maul are you using and what brand do you prefer?
Wish I could afford those B King tools. They have a nice thick shaft to hold on to. Skinny Tandy tools are awful.
Is your shader in the place of a pear shader or just a better type of shader?
Very helpful. Thank you. How do I buy the tools you recommend?

What weight maul do you recommend?
Trying to see on my phone screen, (only computer I've got!) Are you beveling the outside of the curves, or inside?
Could you show your lighting setup sometime? I seem to always be tooling in a shadow. Thanks for your info...S.

Bevler #, or where do I find it, is it barry king
This is the large checkered bevel that is part of the beginner kit we offer. We do sell them individually but we are out of stock at the moment.
