How to Wood Carve/Power Carve Designs With a Dremel

[@waltrissmeyer9577]

I have owned a Dremel most of my life but never thought of using it to carve. I have been making Christmas Ornaments for many years and will follow your instructions to decorate them this year. I just tried it and its so much easier then carving by hand. At age 90 I try to learn something new every day and today you were my mentor. I also plan to use the Dremel to add detail to my lathe turnings. Maybe I should buy a modern Dremel its much fancier then mine. Keep up nthe good work, Walt

Good shit Walt

[@CorneliusCreations]

That is awesome, Walt! I appreciate you kind comment. I would love to see some of your work!

[@bridgetbailey5935]

Awesome!

[@jameshurley4959]

As someone just starting out my wood carving journey it's nice to know the love for wood carving lasts a life time 👍

[@jacquehranica2150]

I just purchased a dremel and have been looking for some instructions on all of its uses. Cornelius…you are my new hero!!!

[@CorneliusCreations]

So happy to hear that you are enjoying the videos!

[@j.g4104]

I believe you meant to say "Instrumental" to wood carving lol .... not *"Detrimental". But great video keep up the good work

[@CorneliusCreations]

haha yes, a better word could have been chosen. Thank you man!

[@plaguex1]

@@CorneliusCreations the complete opposite term lmao

[@chrishudson6158]

Came here for this

[@brendonitis]

Fundamental?

[@kevincaruthers5412]

Detrimental : causing harm or damage.

[@thehuntressdanni2972]

When you speed up the video, the nice, gentle, Dremel sound suddenly turns into a horrendous screeching sound that hurts the ears. I'm not sure if you knew that when you sped up the footage lol But aside from that, I love your tutorial. It's sooo well thought out and you don't miss anything. You make sure that we really understand, not only WHAT you're doing, but WHY you're doing it. I love that you are explaining your reasoning behind everything you're doing. That helps soo much. You've just earned a sub!!

[@CorneliusCreations]

Hey Danni! Thank you so much for the kind words! I appreciate your subscription! I appreciate your feedback! I will watch out for this on my new videos! I am using so many exclamations! lol. Be sure to join our new FB group :)

[@riverboar4854]

I started doing wood art after the holidays and I have found my new hobby! I have been thinking of doing some stuff with Celtic knots, and thanks to you, I won't be thinking very much. Fantastic demonstration!

[@CorneliusCreations]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@stefaniaponitz5738]

I made a Celtic knot in stone for a friend. I learned a lot in the process. It's fun to see your video again after making it because now everything makes more sense.

[@CorneliusCreations]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@Lillymae-gq4oe]

So glad I found this. I just bought a dremel and can’t wait to start using it. Thanks for this tutorial 🤩

[@julietatum9759]

Feeling confident after watching the video once that I could finally address the unfinished wooden boxes I’ve been collecting. Doesn’t seem as intimidating. When he says listen. Listen. The cutting technique is everything. If you’re forgetful like me, jot down a couple of notes. :)

[@broadband1820]

You sir are an inspiration. Thank you for taking the time to generously share your knowledge. God bless.

[@Thimo98]

I ordered a Dremel recently, can't wait to start carving!

Your tutorials have helped me so much! You got me into power carving and I absolutely love it. Thanks so much for all your videos and helpful hints. Truly helpful for all skill levels.

[@CorneliusCreations]

Thank you, Apryl! So glad you are enjoying the videos and re learning from them.

[@michelleh5845]

OMG!!!! I've been cheating myself! All this time I've never utilized the bur you used today!!! Now it makes sense on how I can make more detailed outlines! 2👍👍!!!!

[@CorneliusCreations]

Haha! Yes I know what you mean. Glad you enjoyed the video!

[@alozano793]

Thank you for the creative guidance. My sister has always been artistic and I'm excited to see her be able to have an outlet like this to focus on. This will be something we could do together and make a memory with a memento to boot.

Working on a faux mantel for our gas fire place. The scroll carving pieces at the hardware store were extremely expensive so I decided to look for another option and came across you.

[@CorneliusCreations]

Awesome!

[@dodgemaruader]

Just got a dremel stylist plus and started some practice pieces. I want to eventually work my way to my hawk and axe handles. I think the staining at the end is perfect. I’ve learned a lot from your videos, thanks!

[@CorneliusCreations]

Glad you enjoyed it my friend!

[@wooddogg8]

i am building a small Celtic cross for my beloved recently deceased cat. You just gave me the inspiration to attempt some knot work on it. It probably wont be perfect but I'm exited to yry. I've got plenty of wood to work with so a few throw aways are acceptable.

Right on!

[@naomitate5489]

OMG awesome video my guy! I just got myself a Rotary tool.... Immediately I was discouraged because I knew I wanted one.... About to start woodworking.... But I thought I wasn't going to be able to use it right away.... This has totally changed my life and perspective! Seriously! I am about to start carving up everything!

[@heckmancs]

This was the perfect information for printing stencils. I did one today and just printed a full size on a 8.5x11 piece of paper and reduced it on my printer /copier. This app will be great. Thanks for the info. 👍Beautiful finished box now I know how to add depth to the celtic knots. May integrate some wood burning into it as well. 😉

[@CorneliusCreations]

Happy to hear that!

[@sjergons]

I've been a long time crafter. I've done many things and always wanted to work with wood. Found a cheap rotary tool and i have a load of cigar boxes. Hope your techniques will benefit me. This is gonna be fun!

[@CorneliusCreations]

Awesome to hear!

[@beverlymurtaugh570]

I love your video. It gave me an idea to make an outdoor sign out of pallet wood. This will be a couples wedding anniversary sign with a saying. I can't wait to get started on it.

Love the video, it's great to see the end product, one tip though, pop some sponge in the box to help deaden the noise 😀

[@scootermom1791]

For a bigger piece of wood, you could probably use an adult coloring page as a template. I know I have a few finished ones full of mandalas and other things that are collecting dust and would benefit from being used for something like this. 🙂😉

[@CorneliusCreations]

Fantastic idea!

[@KLisicki]

This vid just makes me want to carve some bass wood, great vid, just need to save up money for tools and get carving. Great work, fab vid, love the end result. Keep up the great work, love your vids.

[@CorneliusCreations]

Thank you so much!

[@CorneliusCreations]

Hear Ye Hear Ye: I should have chose different words to communicate. When I say "It is detrimental", this is an “emotional catch phrase” - let me reword: “Not understanding these techniques could hinder your carving”. Meaning the techniques you learn will better you and not hinder you. There are a lot of carvings out there that would be better with this technique. 👍🏻

[@Cradley684]

Great video well explained, have a nice day Brian UK !!!.

[@secobaairways4585]

Wow! That's epic. I would have liked to have seen how you put the stain on and took it off quickly though.

For the Fogging Glasses Ting: You can get a glycerin solution for small money at drugstores, whiping your glasses with it will keep them from fogging up. Its the same stuff that is in some Fluids for fog machines and it basicly ceeps the water from bonding and forming drops.

I saw a beautiful video years ago about Innuit Shamen making carvings using Dremel tools. They use modern day technology to make traditional fetishes now, mixing the old with the new :-) This video just has me screaming for my work table, to try and emulate the skills shown here. My Dremels just get used for cutting/sanding and drilling. That's about the level of my current skills, unfortunately :-)

So yeah thanks again my friend, ps looved your carving m looked boss. Thumbed up & subscribed ( I'll be checking out more m8 : )

[@solariumtrismegistus1070]

Dude!!! You're great! Thank for lessons, tips, techniques, and tips. I am curious cause I used to draw and giving it depth and texture through learned and practices techniques. My question to you is since I am new to this is, "When you carve into any specific design out according to what it is you're trying to engrave/carve into whatever material you're working with will you add depth and/or texture according to what design it is you're engraving/carving in order for more aesthetic purposes?"

[@CorneliusCreations]

Yes, exactly! In fact one of my teachers told me to stop carving as deep 😁. Depending on the look you are going for and what it is that you are carving, I will sometimes not even add depth.
