Hi Alex, i started following your school sinds yesterday, and i like it a lot.
The takes could be better detailed i think, i mean better close ups of your work.
I think it would be best if the close ups came from above.
It is now for me sometimes difficult to follow your hands and the fine cutting you are doing.
It is no critic but the definition of your work would be much better and attractive for the schoolboys and girls.
Greetings,
Marinus Lodewijk
Thank You Marinus.
I am getting better and better daily 🙂
I agree with Marinus. I spend a lot of time looking at the back of your hands. Especially in this particular video.
Great tip and nice look when using the knife with straight angle and then cutting down the surface of the leave to make it look with more presence
👍🏻 Thank You for your Comment!
Do you strop your knife while doing a carving? I haven’t seen you stop for that at all. If you do, how often do you strop?
I do, but not as often. It all depends on the steel of a tool. In this case, the steel is excellent and holds the edge for a long time.
