    Much obliged! Words are necessary when reaching deep into the fundamentals... I guess actions draw in the people who'd be interested in that though. That's why I have been keeping my youtube channel up besides my course platform. I'd be sad though if true insight and gathering information falls short. I really enjoy sharing my "rambling" and it has helped many people. Finding the balance is key and very difficult. Thank you for the comment.

    When you're working at this level, where every action is intuition, it really is like a performance

    Cheers, that's really kind. In fact I teach the opposite. At the moment when every action is intuition/automatic to a degree, one stopped learning. It is an efficient motor program that's running... But doesn't evaluate. I make every cut with axe and knife, consciously, planned and reevaluted and so the learning curve never stops... That's why my teaching method is rather effective. Cheers for the comment

    @@woodsmansfinest3814 when learning about jazz improv, we talk about shifting from making choices about notes and chords to deciding where you are and where you want to go, and the motions in between become intuition. I imagine it's the same to deciding where to make a cut, to deciding what the next shape should be, do decisions about form and lines, where at each stage the "lower levels" fade back to intuition

    Very well done video, I enjoyed every second of it!!! I never really paid much attention to kayak style spoons... but after watching your videos I’m really starting to like them and one thing I didn’t realize is that they had so much crank... thanks for the time you put in to your craft and your videos!!!!

    It looks so easy! I really need to improve my sharpening skills and to learn to trust my vision of the final product. It is so obvious that you know what you want and where you are going. I think that vision is as important as your technique. Thanks for this beautiful moment. 🙏

    I have a system I teach. It isn't just about cutting stuff off, but I know when and where and especially why. I got courses for that method for just a few bucks and lots of sharpening. Browse here: Boon.tv/woodsmansfinest

    Thanks for the video. Beautiful result here! Question, was this green wood? What kind of wood? I only really have seasoned wood at the moment and it's killing my hands and takes absolutely ages to finish anything for me... Any advice or thoughts? I carve olive Wood, Eucalyptus - some are hard, and a few mystery woods that I collect.

    Thank you mate. It is half seasoned maple and quite tough. Sign up to my course page below for a free account as the next course airing will be about reviving wood. You can then choose to get a membership to watch that and a 75hours of other info or just get that course alone which will be very very affordable. Boon.tv/woodsmansfinest
