[@hamiltonharper]

Man, I thought my chisels were sharp. Watching this, I realized I need to up my game.

[@danielszikora1345]

Means on the type of wood also.

[@bobrogers5522]

Wow, Been power duck carving for 4 years. Few problems with the lungs. Too much dust. Bought carving tools and starting all over again. I sure hope I can sharpen my tools as good as you. Great video. Inspire me alot...Thankyou

[@marvmeyer9179]

thanks

[@marvmeyer9179]

Power tools slow me down

[@sturjmane1325]

No mask?

[@jglabrie13]

it seems that you're better than me at sharpening and honing your gouges. Very impressive!

[@AD-jz8nw]

A true craftsman. Excellent work

[@More-Space-In-Ear]

I'd hate to be in a race with you....it would take me a few days just to rough it out!… great to watch and learn from, thanks for sharing 👍🏼😊

[@caseysokol5788]

Thanks for the video! What type vice are you using? Just getting started and like how you are able to adjust positions quickly

[@rstubee1]

That is a really sharp gouge! Terrific.

[@marvmeyer9179]

Sharp with a long bevel!

[@scaponi1]

I carve cork dekes and can only hope to achieve what you do with wood. Great job !!

[@dustinbond4998]

Amazing to watch a master at his work! How much does a hand carved decoy sell for?

[@BosoxSellout1918]

I can appreciate this, great stuff man

[@gtb2710]

Great Video and confident carving

[@thomasmccollum7617]

Your chisels must be extremely sharp. Amazing to watch you in real time knocking out that duck. I was waiting for you to get the draw knife into action. Great job!

[@marvmeyer6659]

you are very limited what you can do with a dray knife.You are pulling with a drawknife....with chisels and gouges you are pushing.

[@miguelbinha]

Poetry in motion.

[@BosoxSellout1918]

Hope your still turning wood

[@hugohinojosa9647]

what size gouge chisel are you using? great video!

[@marvmeyer6659]

1 inch by #10....1 inch by # 3

[@maratmz]

Great job.

[@janmorse6948]

Marv, what is the name/supplier of the carving vise?

[@ryanjohnson3402]

Yeah time for some new tools

[@More-Space-In-Ear]

Is there a part 2?

[@marvmeyer6659]

Not sure why it stopped here..my grandson was using a tablet to do the filming and I guess it just ran out of gas. I never thought of doing the second half until just now....maybe ill do that.

[@More-Space-In-Ear]

Please do Marv, it's really interesting 👍🏼😊

[@marvmeyer9179]

My tablet ran out of gas

[@duckcaster4150]

What wood is this man using?!?!?

[@r22jeff]

White Cedar

[@marvmeyer9179]

White cedar...But White pine works just as good or even better

[@jamesfulwood5691]

Looks like its 3 pieces glued together

[@marvmeyer9179]

Body head and bottom board..Thats rite

[@burgundypoint]

Where is the rest of the video?

[@marvmeyer9179]

My tablet ran out of gas

[@brandonmurphy4657]

Been around lots at decoy makers in my life . Never have I seen a head carved while attached to the body ... Not how it's done here on the bay

[@javedshah6358]

Pric plz

[@42guitars]

[@marvmeyer9179]

That's just the way I work...If I was typing I would it would be 120 words per mts..If I slowed down I would start making mistakes.
