Yes same here, not as old but getting there and as for drawing I can’t draw a stick man. Great vid as usual Gene. Cheers

Thank you for watching Len

Hi Mr. Messer, I am just getting started with wood carving. Is there a certain type of knife or brand you recommend? I bought a small wood carving knife set but it did not come with a knife like the one you use in this video. Thank you

[@diannakessler2745]

Could these be carved in 3-dimensional?

[@whittler0507]

Yes they can ..but the wood must be thicker and yes ..they can be full figure

[@diannakessler2745]

What size ever tool do you use?

[@whittler0507]

Only a knife with a 1 1/4 inch blade and a v tool that is flexcut 1/8 inch

Hi I am 9 years old and interested in wood carving. What type of wood are you using and also do you have a recommended set of tools? Thank you.

See First Projects for Woodcarvers by Larry Green, very, very similar nativity scene. Available on Amazon.

Is there a pattern pdf?

[@whittler0507]

yes Jim ..If you can get me on facebook Under Gene Messer ..I can send it to you ..otherwise I need your email to send it to you

[@RedBrickRhoades]

I would love a copy of a pattern, too. This reminds me a lot of a nativity set my dad made years ago and I’d love to make one for our family!
