Matt, as I’m still learning how to carve I’m checking out every channel I can find and without question, you are the best teacher/carver out there on TH-cam, THNAK YOU!
Thanks from Australia! Just started power carving a little late in my woodworking career and that stippling effect will finish up a cheese platter I just started working on!
Very grateful to have come across your videos ,I'm an artist and recently disabled from work picked up on both wood and stone work as I am Rune reader and to stubborn cause I try to self teach glad I was able to obtain some knowledge from you and ease my frustrations thank you
I just got my foredom sr motor and 6 handpieces along with foot and table controller. I got my saeshin strong 202 micromotor with foot pedal. My nsk presto handpiece arrived this week and got my filter regulator stand and foot control setup for it this weekend. My razertip sk woodburner with 3 handpieces to start out and neon transformer lichtenberg and mot lichtenberg machines for my woodburning tasks. And about 300 different bits burrs stone etc for all the carvers. So my carving and engraving setup should be pretty complete. Will add to my knife making and opening up many other possibilities. Thank you for your inspiration. You are very talented and i appreciate you sharing your knowledge. It is a great help. Keep the videos coming please. Oh and thanks for making me spend so much money in the past month. Lol
Thanks for sharing your knowledge. It really helps newbies like me gain confidence when my small simple things start coming to life because somebody made the effort and took the time to reach out and teach.
Thank you for althrarythums this video popped up. I wondered how to do stipple properly and I did not know what it was called. I had stated doing stipple on a walking stick project.
New sub. Armed myself with a Dremel engraver, my old dremel rotary, big box of bits and making one hell of a mess👍 I have an interest in sign writing, pinstriping etc. Really enjoy your videos and even managed to pull off a few ok items. Have a huge axe that I’m going to tackle.
The burr kit listed in the description does not have the size bits you show in the video. Can you provide information on the small/med/large ball burrs please?
Of all the videos I've been watching on carving you are the most informative and enjoyable to watch and learn from. Thank you! Where can I purchase more carving bits
I'm probably overlooking it, but what size are the burrs that your using on that stippling; also do you always use the same 3 when you stipple? I''ve tried some stippling after watching your video and I think i may have used a too small of burr and wen too deep.
Did you burn the stippling or do anything other than stain it to get that darker look to it? Also, have you ever done two tone staining? I want to stain all but the lettering on a project, but I'm worried about it bleeding over. Yes, I'm a noob at this whole playing with my wood thing. I find it extremely relaxing.
i defenitely have to start some wood work.. that is amazing!!! One question: how did you get the wood of the axe that dark? which oil did you use? (1:19)
First of all, I understood you just fine, but I'm a southerner as well. Love your videos and have learned a few things to add to my designs. Would be nice if you had someone who could "zoom in" on some of what you were showing. You did a great job working with what you had. Burr sizes, and maybe a buying source would be nice, but then that's what Google is for. What's your favorite way to transfer your image to the wood?
Thank you! I appreciate it! Yes, I need to get some more lenses. I’m shooting in 4K so a lot of it is already zoomed in when I post edit. But I will try to pay more attention to this on my next video and try to make it closer for sure. I appreciate the feedback! I should have a rotary burr ebook coming out soon. I also have a few links below to some burrs :)
Hello, I just recently got interested in wood carvings. I haven’t done one yet but I’ve watched your videos over and over and I think I’m ready to start. When I click on the Burrs you have in the description they are not the round burrs - will you pls say what “size” burrs you are using? I know you used 3 round ones - is there only 3 sizes? BTW - I have subscribed with the bell. Your videos are “THE BEST”.
You mean I got the bell??? Hahaha thank you VanNessa! I appreciate the kind words! Yes, those burrs are different shaped. I need to update my links. There are many size burrs. I recommend some cheap round carbide burrs from dremel. There obviously some better ones from other companies but the dremel ones are very accessible. If you haven’t yet be sure to subscribe to my website at www.corneliuscreations.com for upcoming power carving blogs!
You made me start with power carve :) yesterday i bought my first dremel :) Thank you so much! I tested my dremel with spruce wood and i think it is way to soft. Especially carving smaller things and symbols is very demanding with spruce i think. I tried to carve some words (i planned to carve arround them to let them stand out) but i totally failed with those holes of the letters ( e.g. the two holes of an "B") Maybe i drew the outstanding lines to thin (2mm,/ ~0,078 inch), so they broke. What kind of wood do you suggest for powercarving??
A lot of wood will work besides Pine. You are right, sometimes softer woods are harder to put smaller details into. Since it was really your first time you need time to get used to it. I would start with something bigger first then start getting into the smaller detailed stuff. Once you start "Grasping" the technique you will start to understand border width and how much to take off. People use basswood for carving usually. So glad to hear you are getting into woodcarving!
Thank you for the information :) At the moment i try powercarving on an other kind of wood which i found in my garage. I don't know what it is actually but i guess it is pinewood due to its red colour. It is a little bit harder than spruce wood and it works very well for now :D I just need to get the right feeling with the different milling cutter bits but your videos helped me a lot! Especially your video about the fingerpose of the pinky helped very :) And you were definitely right when you said it is better to carve only in one direction, not back and forwards. Thats what i'm working on now :) up.picr.de/32511364ru.jpg
Right on! I’m relieved to hear your using a fordedom and getting professional results, the 400 XS is a $700 (at its simplest package) system that I was hesitant to buy. Thanks for answering me!
I am going to start and try to wood carve with my Dremel but would like to know the number of the bits i see you use in your demos. i see the sizes on monitor but seem different live. Can you show what number bits you use for stippling and carving?
I hardly use the dremel bits but I will try to get a Rotary burr guide out soon. I remember being overwhelmed when I first started and I’ll give you a piece of advice. Use what works. Mostly everything will work, but some better than others. Through doing this you will learn what is the best burrs for your projects.
Your work is really awesome but the music is far too loud. I don't understand why you even need music while you're talking... If you're just carving, fine but it's not needed at all while talking. If you feel like you must have it make it BARELY perceptible. It would give you a much more professional effect.
Matt, as I’m still learning how to carve I’m checking out every channel I can find and without question, you are the best teacher/carver out there on TH-cam, THNAK YOU!
I appreciate the kind words my friend! I’m just teaching as I go!

So glad it helped!

Great info! I have not purchased a dremel yet, but want to pimp some hawk handles soon.
Right on!
Would you use the same approach on a flat piece or would you use the same but size throughout? Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for sharing your knowledge. I just bought a couple cs tomahawks and can't wait to start working on them.
Right on!
Done, done, done love it.

Great video, your voice reminds me of Jeb on Green Acares
Haha, thank you!
Cornelius always good dude
Thanks man!
Nicely done
Thank you Jim!
Is the foredom SRH motor the same as the SR motor? I'm wanting to get a 25h handpiece but I didn't know if you could use a square shaft on a SR motor
I'm probably overlooking it, but what size are the burrs that your using on that stippling; also do you always use the same 3 when you stipple? I''ve tried some stippling after watching your video and I think i may have used a too small of burr and wen too deep.
Which burs are you using? The amazon set listed does seem to have the ones you used in the video
These were bought on eBay. I use multiple burrs but the ones I have listed are recommended
Man you do some amazing work
Thank you Jeff!
how do you get the stipeling dark
I like that thank you so much that helps a lot
Glad it helped you!
Did you burn the stippling or do anything other than stain it to get that darker look to it? Also, have you ever done two tone staining? I want to stain all but the lettering on a project, but I'm worried about it bleeding over. Yes, I'm a noob at this whole playing with my wood thing. I find it extremely relaxing.
Great work sir! Beautiful..Jesus smiling on your creation!🙄..i learned thxz blessings.
Thank you Matthew!
Cornelius Creations Weaponry your welcome
What burrs do you use ? is there a good make to get ?
I use all kinds, My favorites are dura-grit and foredom. I have some links to some cheaper brands above also that works great :)
i defenitely have to start some wood work.. that is amazing!!!
One question: how did you get the wood of the axe that dark? which oil did you use? (1:19)
Thanks man! That was Jacobean stain
Great, thank you!
May you be that kind and give me a link. I searched on amazon, but didnt found anything which is called Jacobean stain
oh, now i saw that you already posted the link 2 months ago. It is Minwax Stain➡ amzn.to/2GOISY2 isnt it?
First of all, I understood you just fine, but I'm a southerner as well. Love your videos and have learned a few things to add to my designs.

IT is amasing, but how Do you make the steel?

I am hoping you will go over different bits or burs or whatever they are called
I am actually creating a free guide to it here pretty soon you can download!
.Is this available yet?
You made me start with power carve :) yesterday i bought my first dremel :) Thank you so much!
I tested my dremel with spruce wood and i think it is way to soft. Especially carving smaller things and symbols is very demanding with spruce i think.
I tried to carve some words (i planned to carve arround them to let them stand out) but i totally failed with those holes of the letters ( e.g. the two holes of an "B")
Maybe i drew the outstanding lines to thin (2mm,/ ~0,078 inch), so they broke.

Very cool
Glad you enjoyed it!
Love the easy to follow instructions. Are you using a 400 XS?
Nope the Foredom SR series, glad you liked it :)
Right on! I’m relieved to hear your using a fordedom and getting professional results, the 400 XS is a $700 (at its simplest package) system that I was hesitant to buy. Thanks for answering me!
So I commented previously that I was carving a 30-30 stock. Well it’s done. I want to show you but how do I post pictures?
I seen it and it looks awesome!
What the machine best sir foredom or dremel? Tnx and god bless u..
Depends on budget and what you are using it for.
My first visit and I subscribed. Thanks for the info. I'll be back.
Glad to hear that! Thank you!
Hey bro what type of wood is used in for tomahawks? Thanks in advance.
Mendell Jackson Hickory is the most common wood for axe/tomahawk handles. Ash is also a good alternative.
Luv it
Thank you!
How do u stay steady
practice
You are good
That might be debatable lol, but thanks man!
I am going to start and try to wood carve with my Dremel but would like to know the number of the bits i see you use in your demos. i see the sizes on monitor but seem different live. Can you show what number bits you use for stippling and carving?

Mostly everything will work, but some better than others. Through doing this you will learn what is the best burrs for your projects.
I cant get the stippling thing! What am I doing wrong??
Just keep practicing you will get it!
lol i watched some of this earlier .......ive stippled and didnt even know it lol lol
Right on haha
We'll forgive the grammar in exchange for the excellence in wood carving. Thanks!

Music to loud . otherwise good video .
Hey there! Thank you for the feedback bro! I have recently got some better speakers so my mix should be a bit better now.
Whoa! Music level WAY too loud
I thought I had it low, I will watch this next time, thank you for the feedback.
It looks like termites got to it.
Nice video. It would have been a whole lot better if you hadn't had that silly musical track in the background competing with your voice.
Hey there, thank you for the feedback, this video is quite old now and I have changed them up a lot :)
Your work is really awesome but the music is far too loud. I don't understand why you even need music while you're talking... If you're just carving, fine but it's not needed at all while talking.
If you feel like you must have it make it BARELY perceptible.
It would give you a much more professional effect.
Thank you for your feedback Roger! Since this video I’ve got better editing speakers and have made my music quite a bit softer in the background.
@@CorneliusCreations great job!
I didn't mean to be too critical, but your skills are amazing and I hope to learn a LOT from you!!!!
Are you a preacher or a youth pastor?
What would ever make you guess that?? 😉
Great work
Thank you Spencer!
Awesome!
