При склеивании слишком много клея нанёс, достаточно с одной стороны только намазать ну или если с двух сторон то по немногу..для чего такой перерасход клея.??

A true artists makes it look easy. You have proven that point. Thanks Kevin for the video.

This is great! I'm a joiner from the UK and I've gotten back into whittling/carving after watching your videos thanks again

[@KevinCoates98]

That’s good to know. Thanks

[@reginalawson8008]

That was interesting. Did you use the saw because you used a different kind of wood or just to show a different approach to roughout a carving.? Thanks for sharing that with us.

[@KevinCoates98]

Still using pine. Someone asked to see how I did a rough out. Thanks

[@mikecollingsworth9166]

Question on the wood is it White pine ? As that has been mentioned as suitable for flat plane / whittling but not sure how to tell it apart from the C3 studding timber at our local diy supply store ... Great work regardless you are a gifted carver.

[@frederickw5532]

Most carvers cut in one scrole but i coudn't manage too so it's good to see that i am using the same technique as a master carver , cheers Billy H. UK.🌞

Hello Keven. The more videos I discover of his, the more I admire him. I try to model their carvings but the white pine from Spain is harder than what they have in the USA. However I keep trying. Greetings. Santander, Spain

How inspiring you are. Thanks. Makes me want to try "free hand" carving (whittling). I have always carved using a carvers vice and mallet. I intend to free up and enjoy myself trying something new.

what kind of pine is it? I tired carving pine and was pretty hard.

[@KevinCoates98]

It’s eastern white pine. It’s pretty soft but there are some pines that are hard to work with.

[@markdudley3831]

For Gods sake , get a new bandsaw blade . That ones , way past its use by date ...

It’s not a new blade I need. That’s the first use for that blade. It’s a new bandsaw. That one is over 20yrs old and very difficult to get parts for

Well done...do you keep all of your carvings? Always look forward to your new posting. Thank you

[@KevinCoates98]

Thank you. I sell pretty much all I do

[@willtube61]

Why did you score the wood before gluing? Completely unnecessary step.

[@KevinCoates98]

Just for a little added security

[@willtube61]

Well as a woodworker for 30 years, I can tell you you are doing more damage than good. But that’s just my opinion.

[@willtube61]

The raised fibers created by scratching the wood actually prevent the two pieces from adhering as well as they would if they were left smooth. You want full contact and the raised fibers prevent that.

[@willtube61]

But since it’s not something that is under stress, it shouldn’t have any effect.
