Extremely accurate and understandable presentation! Many thanks from Romania!

[@goodorusty]

A proper tutorial video! This is what I've been needing. This was very informative, thank you!

[@MyChipCarving]

So glad you found this helpful. Go to mychipcarving.com for much more!

[@jamesbenjamin1600]

THis was a great lesson. Other instructors wanted to teach the "second" hand position for doing the three corner chip which makes it harder to maintain the correct angle. I look forward to the second video from the Quick Start Chip Carving Series.

[@MyChipCarving]

Good observation, James! I'm glad to enjoyed this lesson. Part 2 is posted!

[@AS-we5bg]

Great video! Your explanations were clear, concise, and I appreciate the fact that you carved the entire thing alongside us. This video felt like a private lesson!

[@MyChipCarving]

Comments like yours keep me going! Thank you very much. The "private lesson" part is what I shoot for in each video. More at mychipcarving.com.

[@lucamarialanza7319]

It's definitely the best tutorial I've ever seen. The calm tone of the voice, the clarity of the explanations, everything perfect. I will follow with great interest all the lessons. Thank you for doing such a good job. Congratulations again.

[@MyChipCarving]

Thank you, Luca. I'm glad these are helpful. 😁 more are available at mychipcarving.com

[@lucamarialanza7319]

@@MyChipCarving Just a question, what kind of wood is used a these tutorials? I seem to see that it is a type of wood with an extremely compact but "soft" grain. Thank you in advance for your response

[@MyChipCarving]

@@lucamarialanza7319 I'm carving both basswood (linden) and high density urethane (EZboard). Basswood is very tight grain and soft. Perfect! Northern grown is best!👍🏼

[@wcwirla]

Excellent introduction! I'm a woodworker interested in embellishing my boxes with chip carving. This is one of the best intro videos I have seen. I love the idea of using high density polyurethane as a substrate. Allows you to focus on technique with having to deal with grain. Awesome idea!

[@MyChipCarving]

Thanks, William, and thanks too for your order. I'll be shipping it your way soon! I appreciate the positive feedback.

[@dennishoffner8996]

Looks complicated sharpening. It's going to take a lot of practice to get the muscle memory down but very worth it. The video is great and to the point. No pun intended. I took a class on chip carving and just got a quick overview. Your video was much better in describing the cuts and technique to complete them in simplier terms. Thank you for your help.

[@MyChipCarving]

Thanks for your reply. The Scary Sharp Sharpening process is harder to explain than it is to do. It's really quite easy and once you have the scary sharp edge maintaining it with a leather strop is even easier. I'm glad you learned a lot from this video!

[@jeffpavlik4767]

Great video! I just ordered my starter set, thank you for the gift at the end! Look forward to watching more, you are a great teacher.

[@MyChipCarving]

Awesome! Thank you!

I am new in Chip Carving and I want to know and learn. I found your Channel. Your introduction and patience to show how to do it, really attracted to your content. Thank you so much for sharing this video I will apply what I learned. I did subscribe to your channel. I am excited to learn from you. Blessings from the Philippines 🇵🇭

[@MyChipCarving]

Thank you, Unity. So good to hear from you in the Philippines! 🙂

[@christophriegler4577]

Which wood are you using exactly? The cuts look extremely smooth. I always have the problem with lime wood that it is too fibrous. Maybe I've bought the wrong wood so far, as there are certainly differences between the same types of wood.

[@ДоминикИсаков]

Всё чётко и понятно без лишних слов. Спасибо!!! 👍

Great video!!

Thanks, Steven! Enjoy parts 2-4 as well and share them with others.

[@ThiagoSilva-dj9qz]

I would like to know how often you cut your fingers (specially in the beginning making carving)?😂... And would like to know as well if after long time this still happens with you. Thanks! 🎉

[@MyChipCarving]

Hello, in the 37+ years I've been chip carving, I've never cut myself. Holding the knife properly and keeping your free hand out of the way results in safe carving. A sharp knife is critical too. More at mychipcarving.com

[@bluesky5542]

Very nice but where do i get this easy bord.

[@eternallygratefulholistic2422]

I love this! But how do you draw them so even first? Must be an artist secret

[@MyChipCarving]

It's easy to apply the pattern with the Pattern Transfer Tool. Heat transfer, quick, easy, repeatable! Watch the video mychipcarving.com/product/pattern-transfer-tool/

[@lawrencealdridge-yk6dm]

?? is chip carving just flat wood or will it work on dowel rod as well???

[@MyChipCarving]

You can chip carve on flat or round objects. Start with flat and learn good technique! more info at mychipcarving.com

[@bluesky5542]

Hello One question where would I get the easy bord to try shipcarving.

[@MyChipCarving]

Hello - unfortunaely, EZBoard is no longer available at mychipcarving.com.

[@crystalk9313]

Can someone with shorter, stubby thumbs (shorter than average) still chip carve or would it be too difficult to form a proper angle for the knife?

[@MyChipCarving]

Sure, anyone can learn to chip carve no matter hand size or shape. When you get your knife you'll make the needed adjustments to form a proper grip and angle. Give it a try! You can do it!!

[@crystalk9313]

@@MyChipCarving Awesome, thanks. I can't wait to give chip carving a try!

What is easy board and where can I find it?

[@MyChipCarving]

I used to sell EZboard at ezcarving.com but I'm currently out of stock and looking for a buyer for this small business. EZboard is High Density Urethane. Finding it elsewhere is quite difficult in small sizes. that's why I started ezcarving.com. Sorry.

[@Be3Al2]

could you please make beginners tutorial portrait carving?

I would like to but portrait carving is not my specialty ;-)
