Yep. It's official. You can no longer call yourself a beginner woodcarver. This is literally the type of thing I imagine every time I see a hollow tree, or some gnarly roots while walking in the woods.
I find myself coming back and rewatching this video every so many months. Would love to see a video showing how some of these carvings have aged over the years!
This build reminded me so much of seventy five years ago when I was 10, watching my grand father building stuff like this. You remind me so much of him. He was a refuge from Italy before WW2. He also was super creative like you. Luckily I inherited some if these skills from him and my father. I have a hollow piece of a cherry tree that came down during Hurricane Irma. Been wanting to do something with it. Now I know what. Thanks Dough.
Wow! You're amazing. That's one of the best gnome house I've seen. I have a stump from a tree I had cut down last year a old black jack and waiting for it to warm up to start to work on it. I hope I can do a fourth as good as you have done. If I were your wife I'd steal it and put on my front porch. it's because of you that gave me the courage to start craving. Been watching few years now👍👍
Hey Doug 👋 love your Gnome house project ! I thought it was awesome! I know it's been 3 years ago, but I have to watch the video a few times now. It still impressive work. I'll keep watching your videos and watch your technics. Thanks for your videos they are a big help and enjoy them .
Most of us see a hollow log and that's about as far as our imagination takes us. You see a hollow log and see this^^^. Amazing vision and craftsmanship. Thank you for taking the time to share this with us.
You don’t need a TH-cam channel you need your own TV show. The talent you have is unreal. Just loved how you had all the gnomes watching you as you worked. This I think is over the top accomplishment. Thank you so much for sharing and you probably did this in a day as I know how you can’t sit still. Lol😘
That is absolutely adorable!!! I had my 11year old grand daughter stay over this weekend and I showed her your gnome door video. With a little tutoring, she was able to carve one in about 4 hours and still has all 9 fingers.
I love how you use your carvings as onlookers and characters in your videos! One of my all time favorite ones was when you floated the native man down the river to find his love in the lodge... Beautiful and sweet!
You bring out the kid In all of us. Grat video. I felt like I did as a child at Christmas unwrapping gift with the anticipation of seeing the gift and the end, that was just wonderful Doug.. Don't stop.
Magnifique! Vous avez une telle imagination pour créer un monde enchanté de créatures, toutes aussi jolies! Vous avez de la magie 🧙♂dans les mains, d'un bout de bois, vous faites naître des personnages! Félicitations, Doug, vous êtes un artiste! 👍👏👏
I found your channel last week. Your videos are such a joy to watch. I can hardly wait to get started! Tools arrive in 2 days. I’m crossing over from gunning decoy ducks. So glad I found your channel to keep my hands busy without hurting my wallet. My sincere thanks Doug.
I have watch so many of your great carving tutorial videos, that you have encouraged me to start carving, so thank you Doug. Your talent as an artist is wonderful, but the vision and creativity for this Gnome Home is absolutely brilliant.
To look at a hollow log and envision the end result is amazing. The talent to bring this vision to a reality is craftsmanship! Extremely well done Doug!!!
Beyond superb, it really is. You are one very clever and imaginative chap. I was smiling and chuckling away all through this, and laughed aloud at the two little red hats you pegged on the washing line... a lovely bit of detail, that.
Your creativity and skills keep amazing and entertaining me. What I love the most about your work is that it’s always done with a whimsical flare. I think that says a lot about your personality and why I am always looking forward to your videos. The editing was very well done. I think you have the makings of a up and coming director. You need a sequel to your little man in the boat making a delivery down River including the gnome house.
That’s one of the coolest projects! So many different disciplines and you’re an expert in all of them! The grandkids would flip out! Thanks for sharing your talents for us to enjoy!
Your genius never ceases to amaze me. My husband said I don't have all those tools sorry LOL. He does have some of them so we'll see how good we can do wth what we got. Blessings and much love
Jesus. What a superb, fantastic job. You are a truly gifted man. Such beautiful, nice ideas that complement a gift with your hands, capable of building almost everything, let alone to do excellent carvings. I became addicted to your videos long ago and this is getting more addictive as time goes, with examples like this one. Congratulations, Mr. Linker. You are a special kind of artist.
Doug you are defiantly one of the best i have ever seen . I really enjoy and learn a lot from every one of your video's. Thank you for sharing your talent
I want to leave a comment, but I'm speechless. You are truly an artist.
I can't agree more. Superior mix of imaginative art and quality craftsmanship.
That is exactly how I feel about this. This is amazing!!! Wow!
Why can't the world be as peaceful and just friggin nice as this guy. Thank you sir.
I have no words! One of the coolest displays of imaginative craftmanship ever, Doug. What a delightful 15 minutes you gave us. Thanks!
This 🙏🏼
Love the gnomes watching you work❣️
A masterpiece of imagination and skill,
Thanks Doug for taking us along on this epic carve and build🥰
Yes right
Amazing! Not just the Gnome Home, but the video editing to keep it so interesting to watch the progress.
Truly a professional.
Doug you ARE a wood spirit, I’m so lucky to have found this channel on my wood carving journey

Dude, there simply aren't enough superlative words to describe what you just did in this video! Fantastic stuff!
If I had all your tools and wood and your workshop ... I still couldn't do it. You are some kind of entertainment!
This build reminded me so much of seventy five years ago when I was 10, watching my grand father building stuff like this. You remind me so much of him.
