Your carvings have got really good! I’ve just started and have been using your vids as guides. They have been bloody helpful - cheers!

[@carvingandsuch]

Glad to hear that. Thanks a lot 👍

[@jayc3110]

That was an informative and useful video... Glad you are posting links for the stuff you use... Thanks

[@carvingandsuch]

Thanks to you giving me ideas what’s missing 👍

[@MultiTom1956]

Thank you ! That's a very educational demo on sanding 😊.

[@carvingandsuch]

Glad it was helpful!

[@ClevesBackyardWoodworking]

👍 checking out that site with the mandrels. Thanks for the video.

[@carvingandsuch]

You welcome

[@norik122]

Да, классные насадки!

[@charliemedley7699]

Very helpful

[@David-Field.Stuff01]

Fantastic video. So thats what a split pin mandrel is for.

[@carvingandsuch]

Yepp glad you like 👍

[@clayfigureart5314]

오! 저도 따라서 한번 해봐야 지요.^^

[@johngoodall7097]

Mr and Such you cannot have many tables left in your house after all the carving on them you have done, you need some more driftwood, and maybe you could have your meals from a tray!!! PS you always have good music on your videos.

[@carvingandsuch]

They are all over but still some corners to fill 😉

[@adeadegoke4925]

Great Video. How do you deal with dust? Is that a downdraft dust extractor table? Did you make it yourself?

[@kurikokaleidoscope]

Very beautiful and brilliant ❣️❤️

[@carvingandsuch]

Thank you

[@edwill62]

excellent

[@carvingandsuch]

Many many thanks

[@gillesgiraud8711]

Bonjour Ce que tu réalisé est vraiment superbe 👏👏👏👍

[@HassanAnge]

Good job man, where can I get a tool like yours? thanks

[@joostborst]

I use two squares of the scotchbrite on top each other. Why I haven't just cut that into a circle I shall never know...

[@carvingandsuch]

😂

[@rroe5718]

Great Video......when using the split mandrel, are you using PSA adhesive paper? Seems to stick to itself in the final wrap.

[@carvingandsuch]

Yes I do and some cases if it doesn’t stick I use superglue

[@rroe5718]

@@carvingandsuch Thank you very much for making this video and answering my question on the PSA paper. Your sanding tool was exactly what I needed to get into tight grooves in the wooden Sea Shells I make. Going to make up a batch in different grits for quick change out.

[@carvingandsuch]

What kind of shells? Segment shells on scroll saw?

[@rroe5718]

@@carvingandsuch Yes, I do Scrollsaw shells that are segmented. Each segment (36) is cut on the scrollsaw with table tilted and spiral blades to maintain the same orientation. Have about 7 styles of shells that I do this way. Glued together and then shaped with burrs such as Sabburtooth and Kutzall. Sanding is the tedious process and I'm always looking for new ways to get into the tiny crevices. Split mandrel will work great. This weekend I've made a couple of Split straight mandrels using Brass tubing.....Also work great.

[@marknktown2642]

You are awesome. What grit sandpaper is that your using?

[@carvingandsuch]

I usually go with 220. Thx

[@nomad_woodmizer696]

Those are nice, is the slotted mandrel from Peter Blair?

[@carvingandsuch]

Just a regular mandrel

[@victorb8682]

How do you keep the sand paper from falling off the mandrel, I can’t seem to have it stay on while sanding

[@carvingandsuch]

Drop of super glue

[@victorb8682]

Thanks for the help !

[@fringsmax]

Which machines do you use? Dremel and what else?

[@carvingandsuch]

Foredom

[@ronalddg06]

👋What is the name of the machine they use to carve?

[@carvingandsuch]

Dremel and Foredom
