    Absolutely fantastic. I’m new to carving , I’m about 3 years into my hobby . Last year I carved some Santa heads and sold them for pocket money to purchase some more tools . Watching your video to get inspiration to do something more adventurous. Brilliant carving , thanks for the upload 👍

    A really nice job! Can you tell from an engraved pattern if it has been engraved by a left handed engraver? This would have been originally engraved by a hand graver presumably. Many thanks for posting this! Chris B.

    It seems to me that it would be a better idea to put the vent pick on the lock side of the rifle , under the lock somewhere close to where it's needed. Not on the opposite side of the rifle by the cheek piece.

  • @TheIronRam
    @TheIronRam10 ай бұрын

    Good point. Under the cheek piece is a common historical example though.

    This is the proof of the faulting of the YT algorithm... Two years before the video appears in my suggestion list. How can the algorithm prioritice a whole lot of other uniteresting crap, instead of this genuine interesting video? Thumbs up. Well done! No crappy music, just a good explaining why he preferes to do it, the way he do.

    I don’t like plastic D handles,they always crack and break,replacements you’ll find almost only on line,plastic of course.But I like your T handle,and I can always make a replacement in the shop,A metal handle would be the best,but I have no means to forge one.I like your simple handle ,thanks for the tip.
