Loved the video! I really want to learn how to carve like this. I've been collecting all of the tools, but I still need an adze, and the knowledge of how to properly sharpen everything. Anyways, thanks for the video!
Another great video, thanks Jason. Can never understand why peeps want to do a thumbs down on a guy sharing his talent and skill so others can learn. Any chance you could post a list of the hand tools you used on this project ? Or did I miss that? Cheers from Calgary Canada.
I've been waiting for this and it didn't disappoint. Well filmed and very informative, I like your relaxed approach. Your tools look wonderful, did you forge them all yourself?
How old is the wood you're using? I'm trying to make my first bowl and I'm using a seasoned piece of firewood that I think is silver maple that I had lying around and I can't work the wood very well. My hatchet doesn't make deep cuts, and my gouge has a hard time carving. I'm not sure if it's my technique, the age/dryness of the wood or my tools being very cheap. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
The fresher the better when it comes to carving bowls. While the wood is still "green" or full of moisture, it is soft and carves much more easily than when it is dry. I do most of the rough carving green, and only the finishing cuts after it has dried.
Great job explaining and showing how to carve the bowl.
Thank you 👍👍
You are very welcome. We are working on a new bowl carving video showcasing several of our tools while carving a large cherry bark down bowl.
Beautiful sir!! This was very informative & interesting & look forward to more more of your work!!!
Great demonstration - thanks so much, Jason. I need an Adze now😂!
Man you must be able to bust out a bowl in like 20 minutes!
Can't wait to see what Isaac will smith haha
Really nice work ….. i need to set up some benches and shaving horse
so good, thank you
hi Jason. Love the video very knowledgeable. I would love to see a video on all your tools and where'd you get them. Keep up the good Content.
Hi. Came over from Liam Hoffman's channel. I'd love to see a run through of your shop/tools, you have some great old machines there! Amazing work!
No cabe duda que el oficio de trabajar la madera es el más relajante buen video felicidades

Мое уважение людям обладающим таким уникальным ручным инструментом. Но не это Главное! Главное в том, что они используют его по назначению!
I have no idea what you said!?

Most of the tools used in this video I made in my blacksmith shop.

Thank you so much for your advice! I’ll give it another go on a greener piece of wood.
Hi from Greece,
Mr Jason, I can't connect to your website?
I don't know what is the reason.

Who makes the big gouge you use on your bowls?
Thanks
They look like Swedish Hans Karlsson and Swiss Made Pheil gouges. Either are excellent..

Very good Jason! I'm about to carve a salad bowl from pecan. The tree was cut down on Tuesday so the wood is pretty fresh. Two days old.
