All pumpkins are very nice and rustic. My favorite is the white one!

[@TheBeardedWoodworker]

Thank you, mine too!

[@misskitty6586]

I loved all the pumpkins, but the last one was truly a work of art!

[@TheBeardedWoodworker]

That's my favorite! I appreciate your wonderful, positive comment. Thank you!

[@karenbrewer3362]

Totally agree!!!🧡🤍🧡

[@TheBeardedWoodworker]

Thanks, Karen!😊

[@bonitacallipare5338]

First and last - love them. The 4x4’s leave room for artistic tweaks, and the stacked ones as well. All worthy projects.

[@TheBeardedWoodworker]

Thank you so much! I agree. The 4x4 ones totally have so much potential for anyone's artistic flare! And so simple. 🙂

[@charlottedavid5153]

I really enjoyed your video and just subscribed!!

[@TheBeardedWoodworker]

Thank you so much! I'm super glad you enjoyed it. I really appreciate the subscription.

[@cwilliams1961]

White one is my favorite but they are all great pumpkins. Thanks for sharing!

[@TheBeardedWoodworker]

Thank you so much. The white one is also my favorite. It's out year-round. 🙂

[@oliviapineda1318]

I love all your pumpkins especially the last one it's my favorite. Love the white pumpkin 🎃

[@TheBeardedWoodworker]

Thank you so much! The white one is my favorite too. We keep that one up year round.

[@maryvalentage6403]

I am so glad I found you!! This was so fun to watch and has inspired me to get the wood out of the shed!!!! Great job👍👍

[@nedcramdon1306]

Pretty cool design. Your awesome Santa!!

[@TheBeardedWoodworker]

Ha ha ha...thanks!

[@williamellis8993]

Those are all really neat, Gary. My favorite is also the white one. I saw one of your murals in one of Jason's videos. It was great too. Bill

[@TheBeardedWoodworker]

Hey thanks, Bill! It was pretty surprising to see he threw that logging mural into his video!

[@ArmyVet76]

Love them all but that white one is just amazing 👊🏼

[@charlottedavid5153]

I really liked that white pumpkin!!

[@sandeebond4514]

Love these pumpkins!

[@TheBeardedWoodworker]

Thank you so much!

[@richardmccann4815]

If you want it to dry fast, add a little xylene, very little.

[@TheBeardedWoodworker]

Awesome. Thanks for the tip!

[@jbr2]

Love the video! Some very simple, themed projects that help in getting rid of scrap or unwanted material hanging around the shop. One note, on the final glue up of your last pumpkin after the pieces were cut out on the bandsaw, it would have been easier if you had kept the cutoffs for the outer pieces so you could put them into the clamps and have two square ends.

[@TheBeardedWoodworker]

That is a brilliant idea! Definitely one I will implement next time I make one of those pumpkins! Thanks for the tip!

[@larrystone5749]

Great job and projects thx for sharing

[@barbarabaggett5793]

Beautiful work.😊

[@TheBeardedWoodworker]

Thank you so much!

[@MrKaebee]

very good job, and i won't send you home, lol

[@TheBeardedWoodworker]

Awe....thank you!

[@HeyLookWhatICanDo]

I love the last one. I want to experiment with a "V" bit in a router to define the sections of the pumpkin and avoid cutting it out and gluing back together. I'll try to paint it, cut out the outline, route outline, route the sections, then destress the paint. I'll reply how it goes.

[@TheBeardedWoodworker]

That would be cool if it works out for you. Definitely let me know how it goes. Good luck!

[@Cata2690]

Very fun. Great job

[@TheBeardedWoodworker]

Thank you!

[@joannenardoni17]

You are an artist. Wonderful.

[@TheBeardedWoodworker]

Awe...thanks, Joanne. I actually am an artist. I paint murals for a living. Check out my Facebook page if you'd like to see more. facebook.com/krakenartstudios

Thank you!

[@joanvolkman7326]

I'm new to your channel. I love all your pumpkins. Can't wait to see what you make next.

[@TheBeardedWoodworker]

Thank you, and welcome! I gotta get crackin' ! 😁

[@scottbionicnerf8727]

I'm a new subscriber to your channel. Just found you a few minutes ago. I work primarily with reclaimed lumber from crates and pallets. It's doing a bit of raining as of late, so I've been busy on nail and screw duty. Getting ready to fire up for the holiday seasons this year.

[@TheBeardedWoodworker]

Awesome, thanks for the Subscribe Scott! Sounds like a good use of a rainy day or two. I really do get some satisfaction making things out of reclaimed lumber, especially if I make a buck or two from them. Good luck with the upcoming Holiday Season!

[@gergemall]

Nice work. Glad I found this useful channel ❤

[@nedcramdon1306]

Hope you have a shit-load of fun!

[@TheBeardedWoodworker]

Thank you so much!

[@mszuzubookitty4646]

I’m just starting to put the finishing touches on the pumpkins we made from scraps. They look way better then store bought and only had to buy spray paint.

[@TheBeardedWoodworker]

That's so awesome! Getting rid of scraps AND not buying from a store is a win-win! Good job!

[@lisawisebruner768]

Man you are awesome!

[@TheBeardedWoodworker]

Awe....thanks, Lisa! 😊

[@tpsooner7816]

Nice job! Like how easy you made these look. May have to give it a try myself

[@TheBeardedWoodworker]

Thank you. Most of these are pretty easy...especially the 4x4 ones, but they look pretty cool.

[@debralico911]

Just found your channel. Absolutely LOVE the white pumpkin 🎃

[@TheBeardedWoodworker]

Thanks, Debra! The white one is my favorite too! Thanks for the comment!

[@gizmo7877]

You have a great personality, you’d make a terrific neighbor! I love wood and woodworking, the more rustic the better, and your pumpkins were all wonderful, especially the last one. I can’t draw to save my life, so as an artist, can I ask what type of paint you use and how do you clean your brushes? I’ve thrown so many away that don’t clean up well. Acrylics not so bad, but glue, varnish, not so good. Also, I love that glue container. Where did you get it? I suppose you buy glue in bulk, hence being able to refill the container. I’m going to check out your other videos.

[@eholland582]

Good job buddy!

[@TheBeardedWoodworker]

Hey, thanks!!

[@scottbionicnerf8727]

YES.! BEARD POWER.!!! The only human power greater than belly-power. I have both.😎

[@TheBeardedWoodworker]

Ha ha ha....as you can see, I also have both!

[@brentjenkinsdesigns]

On the last pumpkin I wonder if making the outside pieces in one cut and then keeping those for clamping cauls would be of any assistance? Just a thought. I liked them all. Keep up the good work.

[@TheBeardedWoodworker]

You aren't wrong! I had another viewer say the same thing, and I but it to use when I made a Christmas tree in the same fashion. Thanks!

[@ReadySetHomesteadUSA]

[@AZbone]

@@TheBeardedWoodworker I am unfamiliar with that show but I will definitely check it out. Thanks!

[@adel531]

What kinda lamps are you using? The hand turned?

[@usaf4dbt]

I will not be eating Pumpkin pie at your house.

[@TheBeardedWoodworker]

Ha ha ha....that's funny! Although I do make a pretty good (real) pumpkin pie!

[@lukegeorge8404]

Bring your spare set of teeth! 😂😂

Would love a template for the last one
