Videos just like this one is why I started wood carving in the first place. This mans sharing over 40 years of experience and knowledge with anyone who will care to spend the time to learn from him. Thank you sir.
Just what you showed right there was worth its weight in gold, at least to me it was. I just found your channel a few minutes ago and it has made my day. Thank you and your grandson for going to the trouble of making this video.
That was great for a first tutorial video. It’s so important for the older generations to pass on their skills to the next. If only our ancient ancestors had TH-cam. Well done making this.
You don't need to "get better at this youtube". You did great just being you and sharing your awesome skill. So much is preserved now with this technology that used to be lost to the ages through the generosity of amazing craftsmen like yourself. May we never see some "polished", TH-cam version of you but rather, you, just as you are. Thanks so much.
Nice tutorial Roger! I’m just starting to carve, haven’t actually completed a piece yet but these vids are great for beginners (71 yrs. old) like me. THANKS!!
I’m so glad I lucked into your channel by watching Doug Linker. Being a grandfather myself and with failing health I need a hobby I can sit and enjoy. I have a full machine shop which sits silent most days so the things I’m learning from Doug and you will occupy my mind as I can’t just sit and relax; I am happy doing something. Happily I lucked into your first video and I see you have many more, so a subscribe and a binge watch is in order. Thanks from Australia mate. 👍🇦🇺
Wonderful tuition. You and you're grandson are doing a great job. Thank you to your grandson for persuading you to start.👍 I've only just found your channel and have subscribed. Looking forward to seeing and learning from your grandson and yourself. 🏴😁👍🏴
These video's Are invaluable. Priceless. I can watch you all day, Actually I have , more than once. Thank you for sharing your talent. I've only been carving not quite a year. Thank you for these videos.
* nods, smiles and hits like, favorite and subscribe after finishing the video* Looking forward to seeing more of your videos Sir. Thank you for starting a channel.
I am an absolute beginner, tried this as my first carving and wow. Roger really makes it look simple. Truly a master of his craft. Not easy at all. I suppose when you've been carving since 72 it's simple and easy to whip up something that nice looking. Sharp knives + great skill. After trying this myself I have even more respect for his skill.
@RogerStegallWoodcarvings thanks for the lesson. Of course I have to follow a talented guy who started working the year I was born! Looking forward to learning more from you.
I am just starting out wood carving and watching Roger really inspires me to learn the basics really well. He makes it look so easy which is a real tribute to all the years of experience and is down to Earth teaching style. Thanks so much for putting this up.
I just finished my best face ever thanks to you. Nothing caved in or broke off. You explained exactly what to do, which tools to use, demonstrated it, and showed closeups. Very easy to follow you and hit pause to do my work. Made it seem very simple. Thanks a million!
Simply Excellent. Very good presentation. Wonderful of you to take the time to make this video and to share your talent and years of experience. Thank you.
Thanks for the outstanding video. Absolutely love the fact that these techniques are essentially the template for future projects. I am finding that I can start from this base and then build on the character of the carving. As a new carver I have been scouring TH-cam for exactly this type of video. Keep them coming.
Rodger I just want to say I am blown away to see you here on TH-cam! Thank you so very much for making these videos! I truly love your Cowboys! I have a cowboy that is a rough out carved by Dwayne Gosnell. I absolutely adore it! I hope to carve as well as you do someday!❤👍❤🎅🤶❤
Great video. I learned a lot. Not exactly the same way everybody else does it. I like your particular approach to the start of everything. Nice camera work. Easy to keep an eye on what you're carving as you keep it in screen very well. I look forward to seeing many more videos from you. Welcome to TH-cam. You are an excellent instructor.
Thank you Roger! I say one of the best videos on doing a face. It was quick to the point. I am still learning and trying to get better after doing carving for 29 years. Thanks again! :)
How amazing to watch you bring that piece of wood to life! Wow! You make it look so easily- thank you for all your details and your teaching style. Thanks for sharing your skill! Can't wait to try it myself!
This is great!!! I needed this! Everyone else had gone so fast it wouldn’t register in my brain lol!!! Very good video sir! Keep them coming, very informative!!!
Thank you so much for sharing your talent. I really appreciate the video. I look forward to watching more videos on caricatures and facial expressions. Thanks again Rodger!
I like your technique for faces. It’s unique and different from the way I learned and many carvers I’ve seen. I’m going to use some of your tips. Thank you.
Thank you I can’t tell how many videos I watched on how to do curve and yours is absolutely wonderful so first one that made sense and that I can actually completed thank you
Great stuff Mr. Stegall. You might consider a video showing how the angles of the V tools change the cuts. Coupled with undercut and creating shadow to enhance your carvings. Just an idea from a new, old beginner carver. Thank you for sharing you art, it's beautiful.
