Can't cut straight lol. It was kind of sloppy actually. But I still enjoyed the video. But it was bothering me to see those uneven cuts over and over lol.
The rocks were amazing. I thought they were a lot more involved but then you just cut and I remember these are organic and can be any size or shape I want. Really beautiful. Thank you. ✌🏻🤍
Very nice, Alec! I’ve been wanting to carve a lighthouse since the one you did a year ago, then Doug’s kept light houses in my mind. Now this one knife carve seals the deal, a lighthouse is in the near future. Thanks.
Thanks Alex. Please keep the videos coming

Waiting for my ebay order of basswood so picked up some craft store assorted packs. Was pondering what to make with these awkwardly cut blocks then this popped up. Woohoo perfect tutorial to watch and practice on for these blocks.
Dude that was totally cool, I really enjoy how you get excited about your carving. Going to do this when I finish this little bunny of Doug’s for Easter, so many women to carve for does keep me busy with all the projects. Thanks Alex for the projects you’ve posted!
Wonderful light house, and some great teaching of angles, thx

Nice lighthouse - awesome design in a compact size. Between you and Doug, you guys have given me some great ideas for the box of basswood and cottonwood bark samples I’m working through. I told the wife about your school. Not sure she took the Christmas gift hint. 😂.
One for the never ending list of to do carving. Getting to the stage now where I think I can do this not I can't do this. Enjoyed the vid so you are subbed Atb Graeme

Just wait until you and your lovely wife have kids. It’ll be “Christmas is a priority!!” Yeah, with the two exclamation marks, add one more for every child. 😂 The knack of producing offspring is lots of practice. 😉 Merry Christmas, my unknown friend
I appreciate you and your talent. Between the lighthouse and Dougs painting of his Gnome door. I was able to figure out how to paint the rocks and blend the paints. Is there a way to send you pictures of carvings. Or a special site.

At first I thought another one that is too hard, but this looks perfect for a beginner. Nice big stop cuts and random rocks at the bottom. Loved it. Thanks Alec

Do you have a jig to cut the 2x2 on a table saw?
Alec could you tell your viewers how long have you been carving ?
Alec? You point out a more involved lighthouse carving during your intro to this video (mentioning a link below), but I don’t see it in this video details or in your posted videos on your channel?
I was half convinced you were cutting though an apple 😂

My problem is when I'm making rocks I think too much,,,
Beavercraft knives are made in Ukraine. They are sharper and stay sharper than flex pro. If you are in the market for an inexpensive knife of excellent quality, please support Ukrainian businesses and buy a Beavercraft knife…or three😁
