You've been a big help to get me started. No one else is doing what you are with these tutorials and really showing someone how and where to begin! I used your blog article for what burrs to begin with. They came in yesterday and I printed my designs so I can start my first skull... Here goes nothin! More tips, tricks, and techniques please! :) thank you for taking the time to share! Very much appreciated!

[@usskullhunter]

Thanks! Very glad to be of some help! What skull are you going to be working on?

[@taylorr8]

US Skull Hunter I'll start with a doe skull, then I've got some pretty nice sized bucks I want to do. Figured practicing on the doe skull first would be a good idea. I'm sure I'll have a million questions, and screw ups! 😊

[@usskullhunter]

Sweet! Ya screw ups are the best way to learn :)

[@melissaledford882]

taylor r. You said you printed your designs. Where did you get design ideas?

I've watched a lot of your video's learning techniques for carving !! It's been great !! I started carving gourds this past fall which I raised last year and find these carving styles apply to them as well !! It's really relaxing and satisfying !! Thank you for your teachings.

[@usskullhunter]

That's awesome to hear Evelyn :) Yes, I have heard others who carve gourds say the same thing. You definitely have a lot of nice surface to work with !

[@Everstranger]

I enjoyed how the music and drill sounded together.

[@usskullhunter]

Thanks Katie!

[@carlatjoses]

Got 2 skulls picked out to carve thanks for the videos. Will let you know if they make it to a video or the garbage.

[@hyde33]

You have amazing accuracy!

[@usskullhunter]

Thanks Hyde! I appreciate that :)

[@xplodemoto]

I really appreciate your videos man, I use laser cnc engravers and sometimes you just have to do things by hand but you saved me alot of F ups with your vids thanks!

[@kidsstorytimewithhunter]

Haha sure thing man! I saw one of your videos on the cnc harley skull and that is pretty cool. If you have any questions just ask :)

[@mfaskins]

Really nice work. Have you ever considered using a downdraft table like wood workers use for sanding?

[@usskullhunter]

Thanks Berry! Yes, I have it in my mind how to do it but just have not taken the time to. I know it would really help keep my "shop" a lot cleaner :) Thanks for watching!

[@tomaslainas695]

[@JunkWorkshop]

[@TheRedhawke]

Awesome video once again, what kind of stain is the Turquoise and the really cool leather brown one on the first skull in this video ?

[@usskullhunter]

The first is Minwax Gunstock 231 and the second is FolkArt Ultra Dye 5605 Turquoise

[@TheRedhawke]

Thanks

[@terryschmunk1956]

This is going to be fun! Thxs so much for sharing your skills. Question- any simple methods of applying a design on the skull before carving would be helpful...

[@usskullhunter]

Thanks Terry! Let me know how it goes :) Here is one way that I use for applying a design www.usskullhunter.com/how-to-transfer-a-design-onto-a-skull

[@christopherbeck14]

What speed are you setting your 4000 to?

[@usskullhunter]

Chrstopher, I set it all the way up to 35,000 rpm. Hope that helps!

[@christopherbeck14]

US Skull Hunter Thanks for the fast reply and the awesome videos

[@usskullhunter]

No problem, let me know how the carving goes!

[@cindywilliams2083]

Been watching the videos & found a skull to work on. I had trouble carving thru so a light could show thru. What do you do about all the bone thru out the head? do you somehow try to cut it out?

[@usskullhunter]

Hey Cindy! Sorry for the late reply! So I just work through the bone where it allows and then do relief carving in areas that are too thick to carve through.

[@hillbillygibbons7552]

Do you sell these? Or do you accept skulls and charge to carve what someone wants?

[@usskullhunter]

I do accept skulls for custom carvings. Shoot me a text (540-222-2020) or message via Facebook! ~ Hunter
