Gene Messer's Videos

The Woodcraft Shop sells the belts. The only problem, the sharpener that Gene is using comes from Chipping Away and runs in a reverse rotation from the normal sander. Lots of people have bought the little belt sander from Harbor Freight (pretty inexpensive), and mounted it upside down.

In fact, here they are

Thank's WCI and Gene for being so thoughtful to teach us new things to learn .. I sure needed this.. Right away after starting the first video , I learned something I needed to know as to why the top of the wood is so hard to cut..What a wonderful addition to WCI.. God Bless all of you.. old slow to learn.. Charlotte

Gen, your tutorials are simply great! Just a piece of advice, try to better show your steps to camera. I, aboslutely beginner, need to look at the details. Thank you.

Hi Gene! I enjoyed very much your videos, they simple and very helpful for new carvers likes myself. I see that most of your figures have the arms/hands rested near the body. Do you have some videos with arms detached from the body. I think these figures are more difficult to carve, aren't they?
Thanks for your reply. Dino a.k.a. Rezbar

I just downloaded a couple more videos from YouTube and was wondering if the templates for the projects are available somewhere to download.

I have one that I downloaded from the forum I think, but I would like to have them for all the projects.

I want to carve them all, one at a time, and would prefer to work from a drawing. It would be nice to have all the templates available at the same place.

Btw, the videos are could...

I think Gene otta stand up and take a bow..for all the videos he has made..they are wonderful..I have been carving for 20yrs+ now and still can learn lots from Good ol' Gene..he is very basic and keeps the carvings simple...also I want to include Arleen also..these people should be commended for the time and thoughtfulness it takes to put into these masterpieces..I am self-taught and always carried a knife..thats the way I started reading everything out of a book and putting it to use...Thank you again Gene and Arleen and anyone else making carving videos..you can never learn to much..there is always new horizons to be covered..bill#1
