[@jasonpiper9650]

Congratulations Ryley, I love watching your videos, in fact , I've been inspired and put a survival bag together over the Summer and thought I would try carving,lol, 1st piece didn't go so well but I'm still practicing . Please keep the videos coming we need more Bushcrafting theses days, if your young and stuck playing video games, get outside, nature can be a good class room.. happy trials Ryley, keep up the good work.

[@davideprio]

beautiful job !! what advice can you give to a person who has to start? I'd like to try building one too. I always follow you! your videos give me peace and serenity! thank you

[@thedukesadventures4323]

Excellent well done 👍🏻

[@frischluftfuereuch]

Great work👍🍀

[@williamjones4681]

Simply Amazing! Did you carve that in one sitting? How long did it take you?

[@billdemelo3011]

Nice carving.

[@claudiaemme9365]

10.41 minuti di pura poesia😊😊😊😊

[@kraios1996]

Any tip for getting started into carving? Btw awesome work.

[@MartinKohoutekchannel]

Can I ask you what kind of wood did you use for this? I’d love to try it one day, but I imagine that some types of wood are just way to hard to be carved by knife👀🙏🏼 I love your channel! It has really peaceful vibes😍

[@lesterjohntalde296]

Happy 100k mate. :)

[@braveseven4655]

keep the craft in the bush please! BC. Canada

[@TSNchannel]

Nice skill, It very beatiful

[@ericscholey1528]

Man, that is so cool.

[@rae4883]

This is amazing. I was wondering where you got your saw and little carving knife? I just don't have a great set and would love something like you have! Thank for all the videos!!

[@kiwoongpk91]

Not sure why I'm watching but I can't stop.... Help.....

[@cheggers80]

Awesome video, I've just discovered your channel and have been bingeing your uploads, very relaxing to watch and I always end up hungry afterwards for some reason 🤔🥓🥓🥓

[@suecollins3246]

Oh! I _wondered_ what that little red glow at the end of the pen was!

[@campingwithbaby4771]

Wow! It’s great.😊

[@siegwart]

Hi Ryley, that`s great! Your are a really kuksa carving master! Did you use fresh birch or dry (how many years drying). How do you prevent cracks? Cooking the finished kuksa in saltwater for 2 Hours? Best for you, Siegbusch

[@susanp.collins7834]

This is one of THE NICEST kuksas I have EVER seen. But why stamp the logo of the SPAR supermarket chain on it?

[@mirekkuzminski3956]

Awesome ❤ it!

[@Pahka463]

Люкс!👍👍👍

[@weldeadlobes86]

How do you determine how much to cut off of the outside once you have the bowl carved so you dont cut through? Probably a goofy question but this is only the 3rd video I've seen on how to carve one and I'd really like to try. Love the rest of your videos too btw.

[@jonnielegend6973]

Amazing 👍🏻

[@liquidluck8594]

Carved by hand in a beautiful place with a stunning finished product. Inspiring. Does the Tung Oil make liquid in the kuska taste poorly?

[@BelbyB]

Beautiful work! What would you use to patch it if a crack appeared? Are there any epoxys/resins that are hot liquid safe?

[@comfycomfy5436]

Отличная работа 👏👏👏 а с какой породы дерева 🌲 сделана твоя Kuksa если не секрет и соответственно Like 👍👍👍.....

[@Crosswalker.]

Great job even though i don't like this uncomfortable kuksa handles, never know how to hold it, i would make them bigger, like on a coffee cup...

[@aceman.nzwoodsmanfisherman5706]

Would u sell any of those wooden cups u make there I'd realy love one wanted one for a long time. There awesome as. Amazing work mate. Cheers from Aaron here in New Zealand

[@pablocruise678]

This guy lives to 100 years of age..no question

[@MrDelupo]

Relax and carve a kuksa. That's how life should be 😁

[@tobaccoroadadventures]

How did you create/shape the “blank” you started with? Looks great! 🤘🏼

[@schmadus22]

Nice to see she let you out of the house! Jk lol 😜 Love the videos. Keep up the great work! You always make bushcraft look so easy; even carving a kuksa apparently. Curious what type of wood and what size gouge do you recommend for a beginner?

[@KuskBushcraft]

Thanks for watching! As far as starting off goes, there's lots of different tools and types of woods that will work well. A lot of it comes down to preference. I prefer a wide u-gouge for hollowing out the bowl part. The one I use is a 3/4" u-gouge I believe. For wood, green wood is far easier to work than dry wood. The only downside to green wood is it may split or crack during the drying process. The majority of my carvings are made from White Birch. Let me know if you have any other questions!

[@smokynhere]

So talented do you sell any of the stuff you make? Id sure like to buy something like this.

[@MapleJames76]

Great job, I know if this were my video, my fingers would have a new Band-Aid added every edit cut....

[@monaharris737]

Um question why do you know all of these cool things??? And who taught all of this to you so I can learn to???

[@mountainviewturning5319]

Very nice cut

[@mountainviewturning5319]

Cup

[@YaYaLee]

Beautiful job! How many hours total to make it?

[@KuskBushcraft]

Took me 3 days from start to finish. Maybe a total of 10-15 hours? Not too sure haha. I'm a really slow carver though, but it's an enjoyable hobby. Thanks for watching, take care!

[@baronerosso6991]

Bella la kuksa di Kusk

[@evanbull6433]

Adorable

[@maciejstarak4817]

Nice job! I've got a question: How dry was the piece of wood before you started the kuksa? How much time had it been drying? I've tried to make a kuksa myself but the piece of wood I was using had dried too much and was cracked :( Can I use freshly cut wood? Please help! :)

[@suecollins3246]

Of course you can use freshly cut wood! It's much easier and furthermore, far softer on the muscles, joints, wrists and tendons. Not to neutron your tools. Just be careful - cracking can _still_ occur while you're working on the green piece. Check out KZbin channels on the subject.

[@PetePPA]

Looks really good Ryley well done. out of curiosity how long did it take. ATB Pete

[@viviandeville9761]

Oh how I want that

[@shiftl4]

Im new to the channel, in from Italy and i love this video, Just one question, what kind of camera are you using for your video?

[@opm9460]

You should try and make a spring pole lathe

[@Crazy.Sheller]

Sweet

[@hanhhihung1787]

Bạn quá khéo tay

[@AmericanWireman]

Is that a Japanese wood saw

[@IFeastOnGlue]

How many times have you cut your thumb while woodling?

[@ahmetedibyurek7787]

Which kind of tree?

[@николайастафьев-ж9щ]

где купил нож и циркуль?

[@cwmillerable]

What kind of wood is that?

[@KuskBushcraft]

White birch

[@cwmillerable]

Don’t grow here. All I can find are 4” - 5” kiln dried cuts. Not suitable for carving. Any ideas where I might locate.

[@jessicaleighdargaclark4536]

You make it look so effortless, but we all know it's not. :)
