Carving a 3ft welcome bear

If you decide to try to chainsaw carve you are doing so at your own risk . This is not the safest thing to be doing with your free time . I can’t be held responsible if you get hurt that’s on you .

Thanks clintoncarved I’m glad my video has encouraged you to attempt this carving ! I have a couple new videos currently being edited that should be helpful as well . Remember stay safe and practice practice practice.😁

[@pauldupuis8414]

Kyle Hall woodworker Hey, are you doing a video showing how to do the fur/hair?

[@KyleHallwoodworker]

paul dupuis I can .. I will work on getting one together.

[@KyleHallwoodworker]

paul dupuis fur video is up !

[@malcolmhaynes4127]

Great video , like your style . Had head phones on ,music just about blown my eardrums . Great sound ,but to loud..now ready for next video on carving welcome sign, all the best from England uk.

[@KyleHallwoodworker]

Thank you . Yeah it’s one of my earlier videos . They get better . Lol

[@faceinthecrowd5810]

Great instructional video Kyle. This winter I am focusing on carving bears…learning. I take photos with my phone at moments along the videos then I can reference them in my studio, that has been really helpful. Upstate NY? Me too, Niskayuna and a camp in the Sacandaga southern ADK. Went to my woods yesterday to harvest a white pine for bear training work. No excuses. I am investing in non-gas saws so I can stay inside my heated studio although our winter so far is MIA…. Have a sthil 140 corded with a dime bar on order, using my dewalt 16” battery saw for block in now but not thrilled with it, it weights in at 14 plus lbs! What corded or battery saw would you recommend for blocking out pine, what bar and chain also? Just subscribed, keep up the good work, thanks.

[@KyleHallwoodworker]

Thank you hope it helps . I grew up on the Sacandaga! I like my msa 200 and 220 just running stock bars on them .

[@haroldarmstrong6288]

Another good video thank you

[@KyleHallwoodworker]

You’re welcome. Thank you

[@woodycrabtree5096]

Your videos are great man i hope u do loads more,,,thank you

[@milagrostq]

Great video, I'd like another video for details. Gracias ...

[@anton-4ik]

Привет! Расскажи пожалуйста у тебя были травмы бензопилой? После длительной работы пилой чувствуется боль в руках через несколько дней?

[@KyleHallwoodworker]

Nothing crazy but I will do a video on the topic

[@anton-4ik]

@@KyleHallwoodworkerспасибо! Тема очень интересная, понемногу осваиваю английский 😛

[@GeoffPSU]

Looking good! I’m always interested in what other carvers do in the maintenance side with their tools. What method do you use to sharpen your blades etc. do you have a maintenance routine ? That type of video would be appreciated.

[@KyleHallwoodworker]

Denny Rager I usually just hand sharpen my saws . I try to blow them after carving . Every now and then I clean the carb and change the filters

[@milagrostq]

Yes, please more detail for the bear...hair and eyes

[@woodsweezell7596]

Nice job

[@pamweese7059]

You mentioned doing a relief cut to help with cracks... Can you please do a video of how you fix the ones that do crack please. Thank you

[@KyleHallwoodworker]

Pam Weese kzbin.info/www/bejne/qGfWqWVmf7CYpJo check out this video of mine . The same technique can be used for any carving.

[@paulthyren7204]

Great tutorials. What is your guideline for proportioning the shout, chin, and lower part of the face? Your proportions look good. I get the first cuts reasonably well, but figuring out the wedge below the chin and face are challenging. thanks.

[@KyleHallwoodworker]

I will be honest I haven’t really thought about it . I just practiced and made different cuts till I got the look I wanted .... perhaps a more detailed video will be in the future

[@paulthyren7204]

@@KyleHallwoodworker Thanks for your reply. Sometimes I guess correctly - and other times - fancy firewood. Maybe like you said - just practice until I get the look I want - I need to make more bears. Time is a factor - this isn't my day job. I've appreciated your videos .

[@KyleHallwoodworker]

Yeah practice is key . This is not my full time job either . Lol wish it was . Have a day job plus this .

[@milagrostq]

Thank you so much,,that's the video I've been waiting for....gracias..god bless u! Great videos!

[@KyleHallwoodworker]

milagrostq thank you ! Good luck and stay safe .

[@eagle1333]

Mornin' Kyle, that little guy came out GREAT! Please work on keepin' the camera on as I'm always following along with ya.....Have a great day, Sonny

[@KyleHallwoodworker]

EAGLE 1 Thank you . I have a couple videos I’m currently working on . The carvings will be from saw to being ready for sale .

[@chrismathews4308]

Can you carve an Elvis bust? Would be tight.

[@KyleHallwoodworker]

Chris Mathews that would be a fun one . I have never carved one but I’m willing to try and shoot a video of it .👍🏻

[@clodoartsartesaoescultor3934]

Top, show de bola 👏👏👏👏👏👏

[@KyleHallwoodworker]

ClodoArts Maia Thanks bud 😁

[@270wsmbarnes]

dude figure out the music to audio this editing was awful I had to turn up and down the volume so much I almost turned the video off. love the content but maybe drums cant handle that

[@KyleHallwoodworker]

Feel free to check out some new videos as this one is from 2 years ago . I like to think the editing has gotten better since then .🤷🏼‍♂️
