Hand Carving Demo

Hi folks. Here is a demo on carving a hand. I've posted several vids in the "Power Carving" section as well.

Excellent vid David. Love the sound of those chisels.

When I cant carve I love to watch demos on YouTube

Me too Don. There is one time laps of a guy doing an aquarium full of fish in wood that is spectacular to the point of envy,
and one of an Asian dude carving oriental characters on a slab of wood coated with black enamel. He uses only one gouge but gets all of the thick and thin parts of the letter with no problem

I know I have too many tools, my son in law gets my hand me downs. Did you see the guy carve a 6' bear in 30 min?

Did you perhaps mean Dave Tremko's "Time Lapse Bear" of a one hour carve in 30 seconds? Dave is always fast and his quality high.
