Haha, Great minds think alike! Periodically we're going to overlap and there's nothing wrong with that! =) Appreciate you brother!

😆 🤣 yeah, mee tattoo. I do that from time to time! 😀

Thanks so much! I'm still new to it, so I appreciate the compliment! Thanks for watching.

Thanks Greg! Glad to hear from you and thanks for watching! =)

Isn't that all of our goal? =) I'll definitely have more ornament tutorials before christmas!

Thanks kevin, appreciate it brother!

@@moonwolf7135 That's awesome!! 😀😀

Haha, thanks Gene! 😀

Always a pleasure, thanks for watching! =)

Thanks brother!

@reginaoatley2767 I'm using basswood! You can get it on Amazon, or if your in the US, Loesshillssawmill.com

@reginaoatley2767 harbor freight isn't a great source for carving tools. I would think they likely need to be sharpened prior to use, a lot of carving tools come unsharpened.

@@JohnnyTheLayton ok ..this is what I thought. I will watch your video on making those tools for $5. I appreciate your tutorials. Easy to listen too. Calming.

@reginaoatley2767 I'm appreciate you saying that! Thanks!

@@reginaoatley2767 I'm going to be making a lot of them! 😀

@@JohnnyTheLayton good because I did the Grinch one..I made 5 and sold them all at the flea market here. It helped me get partial elec money. I am partially paralyzed and I can carve in bed... ❤️

@reginaoatley2767 oh wow, great work!!

@@whittlerdave1440 thanks brother, Happy Holidays to you as well!

Thanks brother! =)

Thanks brother! Happy Holidays to you and yours as well! =)

That's the way to do it, multiples!! Great job Corey, thanks for watching! =)

@thebiglake8625 glad to do it, and thanks for commenting and saying so, I really appreciate it. thanks for watching!

@JudoKid759 thanks brother!! 😀😀

@jefferyhall8811 I'm glad, because brother I was there. It's amazing how much of the hand strength comes with time. I work with my hands and have for years, but carving is using them in ways I hadn't before. Not only that, but the way I hold the blade has evolved, and changes as I feel the wood. I cut way deeper now and way smoother with ease than I was able to do in the beginning, but those movements of the blade are learned muscle memory that come from carving. LOTs of carving.

@ thank you! I’m taking your advice. I’m sticking to it. It’s very relaxing making piles of wood shavings. lol

@@jefferyhall8811 I wholeheartedly agree! =)

That's awesome!! Hope you enjoy them! 😀😀

I've used danish oil, tung oil, teak oil, and mineral oil. I like water. 😀

Thanks Chris, i really appreciate you taking a moment to say that! Thanks for watching.

😆 🤣 😆

Thats fantastic! I appreciate the comment and hope you're happy with how yours turn out.

Glad you like it!! Thanks for watching!

Thanks brother! I appreciate it!

I really appreciate you commenting and saying so. I definitely want to make more ornament videos as we get closer to christmas so be on the lookout! =) My goal is to have a new video up every Monday around Noon central. Sometimes as late as 1:30pm, depending on how things go. Some week's will get two videos with a 2nd being on Wednesdays around the same time.

Thanks for commenting and saying so Greg. Comments like these keep me going. I'll keep a Wolf in mind!

Yay, welcome!! 😀

@@milk_bottle12 😆 😆 😆

@brianschleinkofer6251 Thanks Brian!! 😀 yeah the new ink was about a week or a week and a half ago. Americana stylized. I love that American Traditional tattoo style.

That's fantastic brother! Appreciate you commenting and saying so! 😀😀

Not dark walnut oil. Danish oil, in Black Walnut coloring. Watco brand danish oil is what I use. If you can't find that I would look for stains of similar coloring and see what effect they had.

@@JohnnyTheLayton ahh thank you. My bad lol

Thanks Richard, i can't wait for the weekend either! Appreciate the comment, and thanks for watching.

@bige5565 Glad you enjoyed it brother! Thanks for watching.

Thanks Ron, much appreciated brother!

Those recesses behind the elbows are about 1/8. There is a link to my instagram profile in my KZbin Bio, easy to get to. I can't help you with making an instagram account really =/ Glad you enjoy the videos though, thank you for saying so! =)

@khullain-paints6135 My dude, that is an awesome compliment, thank you so much! I appreciate you watching and taking the time to comment.

@@JohnnyTheLayton You're welcome man 🤙

Sounds like a plan, thanks brother.

That's awesome. I can't go to Wal-Mart, Hobby Lobby, or any craft store without skulking through the craft paints and at least a handful of loot! =)

@JohnnyTheLayton I come home with paint ever month

@@moonwolf7135 That's the way to do it!

Haha, thanks Regina, i really appreciate you saying that! =)

I love that. Thank you. I always enjoyed watching Bob Ross when I saw him on PBS. That's a compliment i'll take happily.
