Mike roughs out a Rattlesnake walking stick and shows the type of carving burs, or bits he likes to use. See how far he can get in one week of work.

Thanks for going into such detail on how you start your snake walking sticks. Your willingness to help others excel is so refreshing. You inspire me to not only do my best, but to help others as well. Your current rattlesnake walking stick looks like it is going to be another beauty.

Although I'm not a carver, Mike, I thoroughly enjoy your videos. They're a multi-faceted treat. Watching you engage in the creative process, seeing the surroundings in which you gather inspiration and materials, marveling at and appreciating the professional production quality that elevates your channel orders of magnitude above typical KZread fare, and enjoying your chubby little companion, Pearl, combine to make viewing your channel a delightful experience. You provide top quality, through and through. 👍

That was a fantastic overview of your amazing carving skills Mike! Gotta love how Pearl knows when to head inside to warm up by the stove. Very smart puppy! HNY and I am looking forward to seeing lots more of your work in 2024! Be well... 👍👍🐶🐶

Mike, I've followed your videos for years. I haven't done any carving for months but maybe some day I'll will again. Regardless, watching your videos is like taking mini retreats!
I think it is impressive that you can do this without using any calipers, but are so consistent in keeping that diameter. Just that is quite a skill in itself, let alone all the other work you do. Your work looks so real, I am afraid you are going to get bit just holding it
Thanks for the video, Mike. All the information about your process is really interesting. However, Pearl is still the star of the show. Bill

I'm working on a stick for a local firefighter. More of a tribute piece, some people don't realize the time in planning. For its just as long if longer than the sculpting . Beautiful work as always.

Cool that you show the techniques. I have some of the same burs. Pearl does just like my dogs. Stares at me wanting me to come inside and watch them snore.
I had to re-subscribe, not sure how I became un-subscribed but I realized a few days ago that I hadn't seen any of your videos in a long time. You're amazing and I'm glad to see that Pearl is still with you. You make me want to do more carving or even just simple wood working on snowy days.
I appreciate very much your deep connection with nature, visible in your outstanding artwork and craftmanship.
Great job sir 👍👍👍👍

Mike, had you ever thought of using one of your brass end caps as a tool? You could apply a thin film of glue inside the cap, then put a grit material on the glue, then after it sets up, it would sand the perfect shape on the end of your walking stick. You could either turn the new tool by hand, or put a shaft on it to turn it with your dremel tool. Just an idea, hope it helps 🤠👍

Hi there, Mike, (^_^) I felt as though I was watching a comprehensive tutorial today. It's so interesting to see you work close up on your sticks. I would not have that kind of patience, but you do this over and over and over again with fabulous results and it is always a treat to see you work on your sticks and to see the wonderful results. I pray that the New Year has started off well for you and your family. Kind regards. Liz.
