- Tools! Chisels! Knives! Which ones do you need to carve wood and should you think about it a lot before you get started?

Which tools did you first start carving with? (for me it was bench chisels, which I still use sometimes)
Great advice. Especially for someone like myself, who likes to flood my brain with information before starting anything. I've definitely bought some tools over the years that I probably could have done without, but when I actually find a spot that I need them, we'll there you go. Finally, I want to say, the best part of the whole video, is the fact that you keep cracking up while you're talking. Cheers, from Wisconsin US.
I know what you mean, I have a few tools that just seem to hang around and not do anything until the moment you desperately need it! Thank you William I'm glad you enjoyed it!
200 mix of Swiss made, two cherry, Marple, Narex, and a dozen beginner chisels mix. Don't buy shit, straight up best. Why! if you struggle with tool, you will soon lose interest. I would say, I use standed 12 chisels. Pfeil, two cherry, love two cherry, just learning. Keep tool sharp strop all the time. cheers
New to your channel and like what I see. The old saying goes. Use it up, wear it out, make it do, or do without. Great video, I'm watching from Maine if you're curious.
Thank you Stan very kind of you, greetings from the UK!
Glad to see another video, don't do much carving anymore... guess that's not entirely true. I do shape handles for tools and fishing nets by carving. How's the stream been? Hope all is well
Hey Carver all good thanks! I'm glad you're still doing some wood stuff, stream has been good thanks, lots of nice people as always
Excellent vid Clint. Do what you can with what you've got and persevere - perfect makers' philosophy. I love it. Cheers mate.
Cheers mate! Yep I think it's important to just do stuff sometimes, gets you through that awkward waiting around phase
Yeah, if I had to tell someone what tools I would rebuy and in what order, it would be 1) a sloyd knife, 2) the box of 6 palm chisels I got from Pfeil for like $60 USD, and 3) the $30 USD set of Woodriver detail knives I bought. I use those tools most of all and am just now getting some more specific tools.
Always good to start with the sloyd knife I reckon, then figure out what you want afterwards. But I suppose some people like myself start off with bench chisels.
@@ClintRoseCarving that's what I started with, too! When I got the sloyd knife, I was like, wow, this one tool does so many different things!
Good advice Clint ,Same as any hobby mate its not always nessessary to buy lots of tools etc to get started .A wood turner called Al Furtado did most of his turnings of vases and hollow forms with just one or two cheap or home made tools and produced some amazing looking pieces. I'm a bit of, or used to be before I retired a skip scavenger, and at work one day when having a good old rummage about in one of the skips on the site, came across a cardboard box with what looks like carving tools and they have been sitting in my shed all this time, can I email a photo some time so you can have a look and tell me what you think?
Cheers mate Bram
Ah yeah I know Al Furtado! I had no idea that he started out like that, that's brilliant. I still use my bench chisels now n then for carving as they're a lot easier to get sharp than a lot of carving type chisels. Yes mate email me anytime you like! Would love to see the pics
Ok mate and thanks
