  At the time a few years ago, it was more than $700, including the legs. I am certain with the crazy inflation we are all having to cope with, it has to be much more. Using a more affordable wood choice would obviously make it more cost effective, but I chose these woods for durability and cohesive use around food. Thanks for asking!

  Oh, he turned out great! 💯 I love that this is your first chainsaw carving. So cute! 🥰 Excellent job! I would recommend chainsaw chaps or pants, eye protection, and steel toe boots. I started Dremel carving last year, and I fell in love with it. I have slowly been building up my power carving tools so I can do bigger carvings. And I just bought my first chainsaw, angle grinder, and straight die grinder. I'm so looking forward to my first chainsaw carve too.😊👍

  For your first Chainsaw carving you did fantastic. I have been carving for three years now in Germany, and my big problem is how hard I can be on myself. Love how you just enjoy the process. People are always impressed with the finished work, but I just can't feel good about my carving until the customers are happy. Watching you will make me remember that it is art and I should enjoy this process. Thanks you for that.

  I really enjoyed reading your comments, thank you! It should always be about fun and trying new skills. I think so many people are complacent in just staying with what they know and don't want to venture out and that is sad to me. Life is about challenging yourself. If it doesn't work out, try something else but enjoy the process and live to tell a story of how you took the time to learn. Thanks again, I really appreciate your time!😉

  Very nice. Could you tell me how you attached the legs to the table? I see you used bolts on the legs. Do you just screw those into the outside so far in without going all the way thru?

• 
  @myambitiousart6 ай бұрын

  Thank you☺️ I screwed in those lag bolts enough to go about halfway through the block from the inside. The extra screws that held those skinny braces also went in about halfway through. Hope that makes sense.

  @user-lx5xh7nz2y6 ай бұрын

  I'm kinda slow. Lol. So you drilled about halfway thru the outside, from the inside, right?

• 
  @myambitiousart6 ай бұрын

  Just long enough for the screw to go in, like a deep pilot hole so the wood doesn't split. Continue to turn it until the fit is tight. Make sure the screws are not too long, you wouldn't want those to poke through the outside. Hope this makes sense.

  That's an excellent piece of work Lizzie. I'm always impressed with your command of geometry - fitting the strips between the angled parts would have driven me quite mad!

Thanks for showing us yet again, that was most enjoyable.

  What a beautiful rolling pin! I've tried making a few myself, but not as stunning as yours. However, please keep those hands of yours safe on the table saw. I think my blood pressure rose a few points as I watched you making cuts. Please use a cross cut sled of some sort for the initial cut on raw wood -- free-handing it is not only a way to lose your fingers but easily your gut too from kickback. And please use a push stick Check out other safety videos on table saws. There are crazy people who have done experiments to see "what if I..." and the results are mind-blowing. It would be horrible to get hurt. Because who would make your beautiful Ambitious Art? Please stay safe
