How to Whittle a Ball Inside of a Box

I wound like to see this in round stock. I'm in the middle of making my second cane.

Thank you for your comment. I have seen a ball in a cage done on a walking cane before. The ball has to be a fare bit smaller than the cane’s diameter so it still has the strength needed. All the best with your project.

@shoptalkwithtim well sad news my first can just trying to do celtic knot it cracked. I have another attempt #2. I'm starting with a actual tree trunk. Almost done sanding to final specs. I so want a ball in cage. Somewhere I'm the middle.

My best advice is to practice your technique on another piece of wood of the same dimensions before attempting it on your finished piece. That way you know what works and what doesn’t and you’ll have a model to work from.

Thank you for watching my video. My folksy presentation style isn’t for everyone I guess. The primary aim is to show how I go about a project and hopefully encourage some to give it a go.

@@shoptalkwithtim For sure, the internet is just so strange sometimes, you were fully fine without being offensive and all, I just don't really understand why channels I watch get hate for like, nothing, no bigotry no bad morals just nothing. I just like watching whittling videos from time to time even if I already have the skills, especially when its accessible to everyone regardless of ethnicity, gender etc.
