Thanks for creating this video. It's very helpful for the beginner and I especially like how you took the time to show multiple ways of cutting the ornament out.

Just retired and thinking of taking up this hobby. This was a perfect introduction, so many thanks for taking the time to produce this and share it. I will subscribe and follow with interest!

Hi Richard Thanks for the comment and congrats on your retirement! Hope to be releasing another video by the end of this year. I'm going to instruct how to wood carve a hound dog from scratch. Safe carving - Joe

DeepDelusion Hi - My goal was to release by the end of the year but need some more time. Even though its taking forever to complete I feel everyone will learn a great deal and be pleased with the two part how to carve a hound dog video from scratch. I have about 3 more clips to film and then edit the 2+ hours of footage. My new goal is to complete within 2 weeks. Hope I can meet that. Happy New Year! -Joe

MisterSplinters Happy New Year Man!

The best tutorial I've seen yet on carving. He shows different techniques for transferring patterns and sawing out the basic shape that make it easy to do without expensive equipment you may not have. He shows the "trick' to using a coping saw instead of a scroll saw. He even shows using carving chisels to remove the blank. An excellent video, well worth watching... Thank you, Mister Splinters!

Edward Deerly Thanks for the nice comments ! Im so happy to hear that my videos are helping you learn. Feel free to email me any questions that you may have. Its been a couple years since I was able to release a new video, but Im happy to say that next week I will be uploading a 12 minute video titled: Mister splinters covers the four basic wood carving cuts. I am also working on a video on how to wood carve linked chains - but I don't know when that's going to be done. - safe carving Joe

Great videos. It's amazing to see a piece of wood turn into something useful.

Hi Rick - thanks for the nice comment. My goal was to introduce lots of techniques to help with other patterns/projects so thank you for taking the time to tell me that. Happy new year and safe carving -joe

Thanks for taking the time to send me your comment - I'm so happy that you find the multiple ways helpful!! I was concerned that the viewers would think it was over kill. I felt it was important especially for beginners. Safe carving - Joe

Great teacher. I can use these techniques for other patterns I've found too. Thank you MisterSplinters. //rick//

I will try using a better camera for next video - safe carving -joe

Thanks for the comment ! Happy Holidays and safe carving ! -Joe

Hi - I use a sSeyco Excalibur 30" scroll saw. I bought mine in 1996 so I'm not sure if seyco still makes it. I do see an Excalibur 16" throat model on wood crafts website. safe carving-Joe

What brand of scroll saw do you have?

oh, please, use a 720p camera. So it's HD; would make the video so much better. So you can see the grain and generaly makes everything look nicer. :)
