You deserve it my friend, you and your whole family work so hard. I love my book and I highly recommend everyone get a copy to see how the magic is done. It is amazing. Hope you’re doing well Mike and I’ll talk to you soon and say howdy to everybody

[@StinnettSticks]

Hey, Jered! Thank you, buddy! I'm glad you like my book! It's good to hear from you! Everyone says howdy!

[@oshkoshbjosh]

Inside me is an artist that died long ago when I was educated out of my creative capacities in school and then enlisted in the corporate world to sit in a cubicle and essentially become just another face on the assembly line floor... but these little videos about carving your walking sticks are so inspiring. It also makes me miss growing up in Arizona with all the rattle snakes and other animals you carve into your sticks. Very very talented and it's very satisfying to watch.

[@StinnettSticks]

I'm sure the artist isn't dead. He's just been neglected. You could dust him off and he'd perk right up. Thanks for your kind words! I appreciate it!

[@CCRider5312]

After reading your comment, & the creators comment back to you I say this....He said almost the same thing I’m gonna say but a little different. Look brother you ain’t dead yet, then all your earthly talents will be lost. Yes the education may can take the boy away from his Artistic Talent But That education cant take the Artistic talent out of the Boy! I say like the creator did except with a twist. Get up dust off that artist 👨‍🎤 in yourself and go after those dreams you once had with a burning passion. Ya ever heard God Put us all here with talents and a Purpose in life ? Well he did and here’s when God tells us or shows us what those talents and purposes are..... when we’re kids. When our minds are innocent and not corrupted by educators or the world itself. So I say make good on your childhood dreams!!!! A Dream is only a Dream if you don’t put one foot in front of the other to chase it with a desire make it a reality. But like I said earlier as long as you have breath in you and a desire and will power there’s nothing you can’t do. It’s there for your taking brother you just gotta go get it . If you want something bad enough you will not take No I can’t do it for a answer. Go back to your inner kid who said I CAN DO ANYTHING I PUT MY MIND TO & DO IT !!!!!!! It’s never too late to fulfill what you was purposed by Godto do until your dead. Get moving😉👍🏼

[@oshkoshbjosh]

@@CCRider5312 very well said my friend. It's not much but recently I've been watchin drawing tutorials and trying to learn how to draw on the iPad (with an Apple Pencil) and it's been a lot of fun. Thank you for the kind words ^_^

What a great honor Mike, I did get this catalogue. The stick looks great as usual and I did get your book. You and your Family have a great Christmas and a Happy New Year. God Bless.

[@StinnettSticks]

That's great, Joe! God bless you too my friend!

[@DadDare]

God continues to carve me according to His nature every day. Thankful for you Mike.

[@StinnettSticks]

Yes, me too, Cody! Thank you brother! Come by and see me sometime. I'd like to see your young ones before they grow up.

[@ww9923]

Congratulations on your recognition in the Treeline publication. You and Pearl have earned it.

[@scottkniss3760]

So incredibly happy for you to be featured like that, Mike...!!! I know I'm not alone in saying it's both well-earned and MUCH deserved. Not only do you create one-of-a-kind, functional pieces of beautiful art, but your videos are nothing short of therapy... at least for me, anyway. :) I know full-well how many hours, and hours, and HOURS it takes to create the pieces you do... and it's obvious that you do what a true artist does; you enjoy and love the process itself. I could... (and have :) )... gladly whittled away many an hour watching you bring your ideas to life and laughed at Pearl's shenanigans. As long as you keep carving, I'll keep watching...! Congratulations, once again...!

[@noiseosoutros]

thank you my friend love dog...

[@joeehrlich2898]

Congratulations Mike!! That is beyond awesome! You certainly deserve the recognition sir!!

[@Jimoutdoors]

Mike, People can read your book, use your tools, and learn to paint and their stuff won’t touch your detail and quality! You’ve been given a gift. Blessed from God without a doubt! Watching your videos always lowers my blood pressure, makes me relax in this crazy world we live in and you are the carving GOAT! (Greatest of all Time) keep making videos I love em!

[@Blibers]

Thank you for this video bc it's hard to weed out good and bad tool companies, and I'm gonna get one of those books bc a carver can never have enough tools. Your work is unreal, and I have been following you forever. I remember when you had under 1000 subs. You deserve and have earned every fan with your work. Keep the great videos coming, Mike.

Watched several of your carving videos and I have to say you have some bragging rights. Just getting into some woodworking and carving myself. I have to be careful not to judge my work compared to yours but what I've done so far doesn't look too bad. Your videos helped. I enjoy watching you and Pearl and listening to you talk. You have one those voices and a manner of speaking that's relaxing. In this world of hustle and bustle we all can use a little time to relax and connect with nature. What carving I've done I think carving is a good way to relax and still do something. And maybe make a little extra money which never hurts.
