Had a blast making this mushroom w/door and painting it. Been whittling for a month and loving every minute of it, thanks to you. After the 'shroom, I took the plunge and carved my first caricature - your hillbilly/gnome. Followed your tutorial (play & pause) using a drop cloth in my living room while I sat in a chair and carved it. It came out great. I'm hooked. Time for me to carve the others. More, more, more.

I think it would be nice if you took some time during this series and talked about sealers. Your owls looked great natural. You could offer some good advice on the differences between mineral oil, linseed oil, beeswax… ect. I know you do that in your other videos but some of the newer people may have issues finding those videos.

Hey Linker! I just want to say thank you for the amazing work you do here. I prefer power carving; which doesn't hurt my hands as much as whittling, but your methods are easily transferred with a little practice. Your gnomes, fairy houses, etc are so vibrant and creative I'm wondering where do you find inspiration? I find it here and from other power carvers, like Matt Carves, Jordy Johnson, Just Carve Rob, etc... and am never short on ideas thanks to creators like you! To your point, we're in the "retirement" age bracket where we find more time for carving due to life events (kids moving out, retirement, etc). I believe we also take more time to "stop & smell the roses" as our focus shifts from achieving to enjoying. As a beginner carver, I'm trying to find price ranges for my work. I tried a couple of sites, but the pricing is all over the place due to producers selling to family members at very high prices (I assume the money just changes hands back & forth). I even found what looks like one of your carvings of a 6" gnome flying a kite for $299! Any tips on realistic pricing? Anyway, keep up the great work and I'll keep watching! Stay blessed.

I would love to see a video about how you paint them and also how you maintain your carving knives. I know there are various ways of taking care of different blades so I would like to see how you keep these sharp. I'm a noob.
