I wasn’t going to make another video until into the new year but got playing around today in my shop and decided to give you a "quick" version of a ball in a cage whittle.
-i started out using a 1x1x 2 1/2 inch piece of Basswood
-with my pencil i marked all edges in at 1/4" and made lines on all corner edges
-after marking the center point i proceeded to mark a 1 inch square between the outside corners for what will be the ball
-using my OCCTOOLS 1 3/8" knife i cut all the inside squaresoutside of the ball until the were hollowed out leaving the outside corners and the center for the ball
-moving on to the ball i carefully rounded it as best i could before cutting down to free the ball from the outside posts
-with the ball free i continued rounding until i could turn in all directions and was as close to round as my eye could see all the while being sure that the round stayed midway of the posts (too much and the ball will fall out)
-to finish up i just cleaned up all the post edges from the knicks i had made and rounded all the corners
-a quick google search will give you much longer drawn out instructions but i hope this will get you on your way -have fun and as always i appreciate all your likes, subs and shares -thx guys
I wrote a small book up in the description that should answer any questions -Happy New Year!
Doug your back!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Happy new years Grandpa!!!!!!!!!!!!
Define the Mystery ball in the block of wood.
Link to the music??? ?really like it !!! Happy and prosperous New year...
Happy New Year's to you and the fam, all the Best in 2019
Should I try this as a beginner
Oh you speeded it up, I thought you hit the coffee too hard! Hope you and family have a Happy New Year Doug. 👍
Love this, gonna try it myself. Thanks!
Thanks for showing each step!
I've seen another person carve this, I was gonna do it myself but I was wondering how to carve the ball. The other person was fast forwarding almost whole video and never stop to show what he was actually doing.
Your are so talented in your wood carving!! It's AMAZING!! You should carve out little figurines of you, Joe Robinet, Shawn and Scrambled O as a box set. I would totally purchase them.
My 4 favorite TH-camrs ❤
Watched it again! Ready to attempt it😎
At the end of the day, it HAS to be a good feeling (whether YOU think so or not) to know you compare, if not rival, some of the finest craftspersons out there. ENJOY that sentiment (as well as my run on sentences)!
Cool. I started carving a couple months ago and will try this now.
Very cool Doug! Very cool!
Very cool Doug well done again
Hey that’s pretty good reminds me of how my first wife made me feel LOL
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Lol
windowclean100 made you feel like you were stuck in a cage?
You monster...Trapping that innocent ball in a cage. Set it free!!
lol Nice work. :-)
Wil Hobbs
He did set it free. It was originally trapped inside the block of wood. 😉
Super cool Doug
That was wicked cool!
Literally just watched the starting carving video and this popped up! Nice!
Good work Doug
That's crazy.. love your work..
Love this sort of thing. I have a collection of my dad's whittling pieces like this from his WWII days aboard the destroyer USS Laws in the South Pacific. So many sailors aboard that vessel turned to crafts to fight off the boredom leading up to the battle of Okinawa. I have no idea what to do with the pieces but will never get rid of them. Your kids will someday look at your collection and probably say the same thing. Great work, loved the video format, and the book was so long I fell asleep reading it, grin.. Got my clings, thanks a lot. NOTE to anyone with the clings, DO NOT DROP THE PEELED CLING ONTO THE DUSTY SHOP FLOOR, IT WILL LAND STICKY SIDE DOWN!
Doug I love your videos!
Thanks for the extra video. For some reason I feel I'm gonna cut myself before I get it done, but I'm definitely going to try doing this. Cool little carve.
Wishing you and your family a happy and prosperous New Year Doug.
That's Awesome!!!Gonna try that one too..
This reminds me of being young and seeing how many movable rings we could carve on our walking sticks before the damn thing broke. Going to try this next....not on a walking stick of course. Thanks!
Wow! I love your videos!
Just got my first "real" carving knife for a Christmas present and shortly there after got my first thumb cut (dang those blades are sharp and make a bloody mess)…… can't wait to try and do one of these ball in cage!
Doug Linker He's a professional
Hi Doug, I know you are on a hiatus but I have searched for all of your videos and then this pops up after I thought i had found them all. Great carving! Hope to see you back on youtube sometime this year. God bless.
Well, that was fun.
Another wonderful video sir.
Doug Inside ;)
I always love your background music. Great job!
Way too cool Doug
Fascinating, a #1 new year to you and the family.
I am glad you decided to make an extra video. Good to see that survived Christmas and Happy New Year Doug.
Rach
A blessed and happy New Year to you and yours!
Brilliant. HAPPY NEW YEAR!
My Grandfather used to make these and chains also. Thanks for posting. I want to try this.
Happy New Year Doug!!! Ball in a cage, so cool!!!
When I worked in Algonquin Park in the 70's, there was a lad from Madawaska who would carve a working pair of working pliers out of one piece of wood. I still have mine.
There's a new video on YT of a guy carving a wooden headrest out of a single piece of wood it's hinged in the middle check it out it's a cool video. Probably come up as hinged wooden headrest carving.

It's not my video it's just a link to the wooden pillow video it's pretty cool
Ernst “Mooney” Warther of Dover, Ohio would do that a lot. He once carved a tree with hundreds of tiny pliers as the branches. Visit the museum of his carvings if you ever get that way. He carved the history of steam power from ancient Egypt to 20th century steam locomotives. One is a detailed scale model of the Lincoln Funeral train done in ebony wood.
I made one of those when I was a young Boy Scout. Hanging out in the camp site at camp that summer the leader had a bucket of bass wood blanks. I bought a whittler knife at the camp store. I still own that knife. I’m getting encouraged to get it out and use it again. Keep up the great videos.
Thank you I’ll look it up and read it
Awesome as usual. Thanks for the bonus video on your Holiday time! We know you can't sit still for too long! Happy New Year to you and the fam!
HAPPY NEW YEAR!
Thanks for sharing - and Happy New Year! May it be everything you wish it to be!!
Awesome thanks for sharing this Doug! I am finishing up a chain from a solid block of wood at the moment and I want to try making one of these next. Im Happy you posted this video for me to follow along and see how a pro does it. Thanks again- Cheers!
A fun video. Enjoyed the music. Happy New Year!
Happy New Year to you and your family. Looking forward to your videos in the new year.
Friggin' amazin'!
first. 😂
Lol!
Lol 😜
😂 Shawn.
Oh no. The “first” virus has attacked Shawn. The best cure for that is some fresh deer liver and onions so you’re in luck Shawn since you finally got your deer for 2018.
but did you watch it? haha
Very cool, seems your hands needed something to do... 😄👍
Nice piece Doug. That is a keepsake, for sure. I can't draw a straight line with a ruler.
It beats Joe's spate of reruns.
Thanks to Shawn for having the humility to thank Joe, anyway.
Pretty cool!
wow...fantastic
Thanks to you doug, i started whittling... so.. you basically made me an addict. Love the vids 👍🏻
Very cool.
I've watched you make this before, but had to watch again when I saw the upload! I just realized a practical use for this; it would make a fantastic pet rabbit, or even pet rat toy.
Thanks for treating us to one more treasure, in 2018. May 2019 be as fun!!!
Cool. Happy New Year!
Sweet! Thanks Doug, and Happy New Year❄️
Thanks for the hearts Doug! Happy new years to you and your family(: god bless you all! Cheers from Australia(:
Edit; PS, when I carve my first "thing" I'll be sure to send it to you whatever it turns out to be(:
Short and sweet and entertaining to boot!
Very cute, can't wait for more videos!!
Awesome Doug! It is going to be a good new year now for sure!
TREMENDOUS 👍🏻
I think I could have watched the whole thing in real time. Thanks for the video. 😎👍
So fun to watch you whittle and the music you picked is Top Drawer, love it all! Peace and Good Fortune to you and yours! Happy New Year! Look forward to More of Doug Outside in 2019!
