Fantastic educational video. I love the sound of the blades whispering through the wood. Class

[@Zedoutdoors]

Me and you both, the sound is like asmr for the soul ~Peace~

[@shahar85]

Thank you so much Zed and Dan! These kind of videos you created, got me into spooncarving which made me meeting new friends around the world and become a huge hobby of mine

[@Zedoutdoors]

Thats amazing to hear! wishing you all the best in your carving journey and stay blessed my friend ~Peace~

[@Moira-h3n]

Hello from Alaska! Long video but taken step by step through the process, very nice indeed! Thanks for sharing. I'll definitely check out some of the others too.

[@Zedoutdoors]

Well hello there Alaska friend! Indeed yes this is a long video, but my hope was to cover as much of the process as possible. Many thanks for watching and take care ~Peace~

[@JensDenborg]

You are SO good to us, Zed! So many brilliant instructions you have released recently. I enjoy every one of them. Quality of filming is supberb and so are the quality of the content and the instructors. THANKS!!!

[@Zedoutdoors]

Hi Jens you are very kind and I sincerely appreciate your support of these videos. Take care and happy carving my friend ~Peace~

[@matthewalle2]

Thanks for the video. I’m cutting trees and wanting to use some of the better looking wood for projects like this. Like a beautiful black walnut. I don’t have the money to pour into a wood shop with all the fancy tools. So seeing you and what tools to use helps a ton. Thank you so much.

[@Zedoutdoors]

This is a great way utilisng wood that would otherwise be burned, etc. Best of luck with having a go! ~Peace~

[@hawk2million]

This video is a real treasure. Thanks to both of you for putting in the time to get this out to the big wide world.

[@Zedoutdoors]

A sincere thank you for your kind words and am really happy to hear you liked the video ~Peace~

[@jeandresley275]

I have just started with bowl carving. Thank you for taking us through Dan’s process. It was very helpful.

[@Zedoutdoors]

The pleasure is all mine Jean and I sincerely wish you the best with your carving journey ~Peace~

[@WVTreenWorks]

This was one of the best videos that I have seen in a long time. If this video had only been out when I started researching green woodworking six years ago.

[@Zedoutdoors]

Sincerely appreciate your kind words James and full credit goes to Dans excellent tuition and demonstration. Indeed i'm hoping these videos will fill that gap when it comes to detailed video tutorials covering all aspects of green woodworking ~Peace~

[@curiousgeorge555]

Another great tutorial! I have carved one super dry oak bowl. Just about snapped a couple of gouges. Will try green soon. Love the philosophy Dan encorporates in his teaching.

[@Zedoutdoors]

Indeed carving with dry wood generally involves a different process and i'm confident you'll find carving with greenwood a more njoyale process, let alone be easier on your tools! ~Peace~

[@hollybobisuthi7618]

Thank you for posting a detailed, real time look at this craft! Extremely helpful to watch the various tools working up close.

[@Zedoutdoors]

A sincere thank you for watching and for your kind words ~Peace~

[@cds1520b]

great video from the pro, he has more carving tools than I think I have every seen, thanks

[@Zedoutdoors]

Appreciate you watching and for the kind words ~Peace~

[@branchoutcreations]

Absolutely incredible video, as usual very informative. Thank you for sharing this with us! I was surprised to hear him say he knocks on or taps the wood to hear the sound difference in regards to drying, as I too do this. Very great video!

[@Zedoutdoors]

Sincerely appreciate the kind words and am chuffed to hear you enjoyed this video! ~Peace~

[@teeeff5179]

nice one Zed + Dan. been carving wood for 20+ years and still learning new things. 👍👍✌🖖

[@Zedoutdoors]

Thats awesome to hear, always an eternal student and always learning ...the journey never ends ~Peace~

[@BarryCallow-y1w]

Excellent video. I love it when you explained and gave where I might get some tools. Keep it up...

[@Zedoutdoors]

Appreciate your kind words and for watching, thank you ~Peace~

This guy is dressed like every Scooby-Doo character simultaneously and the crazy part is that it actually works.

[@Zedoutdoors]

lol I thought the same when I met up with Dan, that being he's an uber chilled individual who lives for his craft ~Peace~

[@Solid_Jackson]

It doesn’t

[@sherriestes-erwin1908]

Awesome video!! I hope to carve a bowl as beautiful as yours are one day. Thank you so much for sharing your skills with us. Now I'm going to watch the one on spoons 😊

[@Zedoutdoors]

Sincerely appreciate you watching and for the kind words Sherri thank you :) ~Peace~

"Bowling" with Dan!✌🏽

[@Zedoutdoors]

Ha! yes indeed :) ~Peace~

[@trevorleedham6307]

I love to see a UK based bowl carver using tools inspired by the bent knives used by the Pacific Northwest of America native carvers such as the kestrel tools bent knife and the internal bevel hook knife. It would be great to see those tools being used to their full potential though. They are wonderfully useful and can be used in so many different ways that are largely ignored by European style carvers. Great video by the way.

[@Zedoutdoors]

Hi Trevor, indeed there's lots to be learnt by traditional carvers in the US, alas we dont have enough exposure to it on these shores to make that feasable. Social media is slowly change that though bit by bit ~Peace~

[@joshwalker5605]

Another zed video! Wonderful as always.

You the man Josh thank you 🙌 ~Peace~

[@Liam_Nielsen]

That was excellent. Thank you Zed and Dan. Would Dan consider doing a video on his basket making?

[@Zedoutdoors]

Appreciate the kind words and for watching Liam, I'll run the idea by Dan to see what he says! That being said, i'm not sure if you're aware, but I have previously fimed a very detailed tutorial on split hazel basketry - kzbin.info/www/bejne/lWXMeKaMip54b5o

Zed I only has a busted gouge I fixed up was rusty too I can't find any gouges mine was given to me by a friend whose father passed away as for dog leg gouge all I can say is dang . Looks so satisfying to use as I said I has difficulty finding them gouges or any for that matter I prefure antique tools as steel is better and the nostalgia 👍🇬🇧🐾🦊

[@Zedoutdoors]

Hi John, indeed use whatever you have buddy, like you I also like sourcing vintage tools as they were built to last ~Peace~

@@Zedoutdoors aye 👍🇬🇧🐾🦊🍀

[@Impaler71]

Great video as always! I'm getting really inspired to carve my own bowls and kuksas. Is there anyway to order some of the tools (like the big spoon- knife or a scorp) outside of the UK? Thanks again for these awesome videos and tutorials, they are really appreciated!

[@Zedoutdoors]

I sincerely appreciate your kind words Matthias and it's awesome to hear you are considering carving your own bowls/kuksas. Outside of the UK I would highly recommend this tool maker who is based in Portugal, tell him I sent you over and he will look after you - belzeboocrafts.blogspot.com/

[@transmundanium]

Ambidextrous adzing! Wow.

[@Zedoutdoors]

I know right! not sure if you've seen the spoon carving video i've filmed with him, but he also uses straight carving knives with both hands too, amazing skills ~Peace~

I've never stopped watching you Stan.... ~Peace~

[@danielspain7231]

33.00 adze work - good video - you could always try rehandling the adze with a back sweep which will clear your swing at the back and give a bit more rotation or swing, and it will bring the edge onto the wood at a different and more easily variable presentation might work with that make of adze it worked with mine, pretty easy eye to fit to as well, Anyway pretty good stuff

[@Zedoutdoors]

Appreciate the suggestion Daniel thank you, I have videos planned on Adze in the coming months that will hopefully shed more light on the tool as it's not often spoken about ~Peace~

[@danielspain7231]

@@Zedoutdoors hello Zed hope all is well, that would be interesting to see more adze videos, ive used them for a few years, pretty useful! I’ve followed your channel for a time now, the kuksa ones in particular are the most interesting but there’s an epic one building a shave horse which I doff my woolly hat to you for producing , inspired me to make one myself which was terrible, but fundamentally works 🧐 All of your videos have fascinating content and are well useful every one has some kind of new or different technique or tips so pretty impressive, and the techniques are all definite practiced skill sets or seem that way, which is of far better value for learning than the average bushcraft youtube video, as the attention to detail in tool usage and safety is necessarily involved as you probably know , all mindful stuff, of which I need more practice ! Nice one hope to see more 👍🏼

[@Michalis_Karakostas]

I saw some guys using some roughing gouge with some depth to carve the bowl. Which is the best way? Gouge or adge?

[@Zedoutdoors]

They are both effective, Adze is typically more for roughing out whereas the gouge you can be more refined ~Peace~

[@mikenorris6769]

Could you please give exact description of chisel that is being used, thanks

[@Zedoutdoors]

Hi Mike, tools have been referenced in the description of this video ~Peace~
