Seeing the true likeness of the hand suddenly emerge from the wood is beautiful and a true testament to your talent and skill. Keep it up, Lignum! You're quickly becoming my favorite artist on TH-cam, and I'm sure many others can say the same.
Dear Sir, Your original project becomes all the more interesting with the dexterity with which you handle that Stanley knife. Even most skilled craftsmen normally use dedicated sculpting chisels. I can just about open a carton with that knife yet you make look so easy( knowing full well how challenging it is to work with the wrong implement). Your work is truly astounding, great background music too I taught. Very well done my old fruit & kind regards.
Thank you so much :). I never tried whittling with real carving knives, my friend told me I'd be amazed how much easier it is.. I'm thinking of buying a set from ebay.. I saw a couple of old Japanese ones in great shape and I think I'l invest..
holy shit. how? I have been here since the 6000 sub Mark and this channel has just skyrocketed! the amount of skill in this piece is outstanding. can't wait for the next vid, thanks
So cool! I love the HAND carving :) I really like how you made that steel base. At first I thought is was just flashing wrapped around the wood, but that's way cooler putting a solid block of steel! Awesome job lignum!
Thank you Eli! I had to put some heavy weight on the bottom so It wouldn't tip over. It turned out more stable than i thought.. Almost like no spill cup ;)
Well, I initially thought you was going to carve the hand just with your robot following some 3d shots of your hand... (which could be also a cool video indeed) instead you've shown us also that you're also a great hand tool carpenter! Well done man!
Thank you Ryan soo much! I'm stunned about all this youtube thing more than anyone.. How are things with you? Are you working on some new video projects?
Wow! Well done Brother! You and PJ are on the same wavelength! Incredible that you both uploaded on the same day! I MUST try my hand at it!.......see what I did there!...LOL! I might have to do the torso and we could put them all together for a complete body! We could send it to DiResta to put his finishing touch and complete the colab!...LOL! Have A Super Week!.....Gus
It's great! You do it perfect on the outside, the nails, the nuckles, so realistic, but I was wondering why you didn't do it more details on the palm. Im sure you can do it more real if you want. But it was just a piece of advise, I love it!
Hi Lignum, My name is Jelle, I'm 15 years old, and I come from the Nederlands. This video inspired me to do something very similar. I have a few question though, and I would like to ask them to you, and I hope you can answer some: 1. What kind of wood do you use? 2. Do you actually use 1 solid block of wood? 3. Is the tool you use at 2.40 really necessary, and what it is called? 4. Do you have any further tips? I would appreciate it very very much if you could answer these, but I would also understand if not. Greetings, Jelle
This was leftover from spruce glulam beam.That tool is an ordinary hook blade and it is used for carving indentations. Dont have any tips, I'm a beginner in carving myself :)
I'm also a beginner, and I don't have any tools.. but since I did a wood katana with a sander and a blade, I'm pretty sure you can pull this off with a chisel and knife... it will take more work and won't look as good, but you can deffinetly pull it off! Greetings from brazil^^
I do sometimes, but natural wood looks best to me, I like slowly changing color and patina, I think It's a part of it's charm :D Its not meant to last millenniums like stone..
Drawing hands is already hard enough, so carving a realistically proportional one out in wood it's truly incredible. Great job
bruh, I can't even draw hands you're out there doing this. Incredible!
I'm not sure I could draw it either.. :D
Lignum is definitely in my top 5 favorite channels! Love your videos!!!
Thank you Jimmy!
He is on my top 2.

Wow, Thank you for your kind comment! Makes me motivated more than anything! :)
The hand that carves the wood, carved in wood. Beautiful idea. Beautifully executed! Love your channel.
Thank you Niall so much! I just saw a couple of your videos and must say I love what I see..
Excellent work man!

Oh, my... With a utility knife and one hook blade... I'm packing up my carving tools and storing them in the attic :-) Clyde
Yeah, I should really invest in some better tools..
Interesting choice of knife for the project.
i half expected you to used it a a push stick right at the end. beautiful work
Just amazing but not fair. You make it look so easy. Awesome work
Thank you Geoff! :D
Vrhunski posao,jako mi se sviđaju detalji na ruci.

So cool! I love the HAND carving :) I really like how you made that steel base. At first I thought is was just flashing wrapped around the wood, but that's way cooler putting a solid block of steel! Awesome job lignum!
Thank you Eli! I had to put some heavy weight on the bottom so It wouldn't tip over. It turned out more stable than i thought.. Almost like no spill cup ;)
If I hadn’t subbed a month ago when I found this channel, I would have subbed from this video

Thank you Gianluca! I thought maybe I'd scan this one and cnc mill a giant one from styrofoam for one of my future videos..
Nice work. These hand made videos are really great. You really master ways to work with wood. Impressive!
Your work and art is the best
Thank you!
Nice work! Cool to see hand tools.
Love the detail on this. Really cool looking piece!

Am amazed by the things you can do... DaVinci " engineer artist architect inventor" 🙌
Thank you very much, Glad you like my older projects! :D
I thought you would simply use the cnc but this is very very impressing!
I like getting down to basics every once in a while.. Relaxing..
Great work - Great video.
I was hoping the Kuka would carve this out, but this was also great!
:D Now this is a rare comment! I usually get the exact opposite!
lol, well if you used an X Carve or a regular CNC I would say the same.
Que obra de arte linda! Parabéns pelo excelente trabalho!
I carve stone... I really enjoyed your video
Thank you! I watched your vids! Great work! I might give stone carving a shot! :D
It's great! You do it perfect on the outside, the nails, the nuckles, so realistic, but I was wondering why you didn't do it more details on the palm. Im sure you can do it more real if you want. But it was just a piece of advise, I love it!
Wow! Just wow!
Now do the rest!
Awesome carving!
I wish I had the time, I would love to! Glad you like it! :D

Thank you Jayson!

Thank you!
This would make a cool sanding block as the hand could look like it’s sinking in quick sand but it’s just sinking in a sanding block
Gj 💪👏👏 saludos desde Uruguay
good job!
Thank you!:)
What wood did you use? Not lignum vitae, right?
Great
Here I thought my leg was cool and you end up posting this on the same day to shame me :D
...you should totally turn this into a lamp though haha
Jackman Works just watched your vid and thought the same😂
Ahaha, your lamp is awesome man! And thanks for the idea;)
Mb you would make a human head using a chainsaw or a hatchet for example? ;o)
Awesome work man 👌👏
Thank you!
Очень good

lignum
Thanks for answering :). Is such a hook blade necessary or can everything be done with a chisel and knife?
I'm also a beginner, and I don't have any tools.. but since I did a wood katana with a sander and a blade, I'm pretty sure you can pull this off with a chisel and knife... it will take more work and won't look as good, but you can deffinetly pull it off!
Greetings from brazil^^
Jelle Z you could invest in a dremel type multitool with all the burrs.the sanding bits would do this for you.
Great art, great images, but this music??
Awsome!
That knot would look so damn awsome if it was on the palm side :)
You are right, too bad it didn't show it self on the surface of the block..
Fantastic :) ॐ
Don't know. It looks like kind of magic to me ;o)
Beautiful!! But I'm very curious why you never put finish on your pieces. 🤔
I do sometimes, but natural wood looks best to me, I like slowly changing color and patina, I think It's a part of it's charm :D Its not meant to last millenniums like stone..
lignum makes sense..thank's for the response!
How much does it cost for both the arm and a leg?
fantastico¡
Looks like the scar from fight club..
Cool!
Thank you Hugo!
Must be Bobby Duke's brother, cause I want thayat, too.
