    this really was a masterclass in head carving. Excellent production value as well with your use of voiceover and speeding up the video while at the same time keeping all your process concise. Really enjoyable to watch!

    Still loving to watch you do your magic. Wondering if you have heard if the WW Championship will continue in light of latest developments at the museum. Thanks, Ed

    Hello and thanks again for the helpful hints . I have a question that I would like to ask. You use ruby bits quite often. I use stump cutters for the same areas as you. Is there a reason why you prefer them compared to stump cutters? I have never used ruby bits thinking they are similar to the diamond bits you can get in a twenty bit pack. Are they similar in coarseness? Thanks again.

    I’m sure stump cutters are good. I just got used to using burrs and Ruby/diamond bits. You can get different levels of grit on the ruby and diamond bits. I normally use a medium grit.
