Good video. Didn’t waste a lot of time with useless stuff. It straight to important info
The shoulder idea was cool, but I instantly thought of a second, smaller and uglier face
Me: I studied and struggle make a living..
This guy: I‘m gonna be a professional pumpkin carver… (💰💰💰)
Level 100 “and finally…you become a pumpkin”
I’ve never ever had so much fun watching a YouTube video as today. Amazing and inspiring
Great video. Very cool to get some ideas. Love the humor in the video and your laugh at 17:32 is silly lol. Awesome pumpkins. Wish I didn’t (wrongly) think I could achieve anything past the first two examples 😂
These are so so beautiful! I wish pumpkins were not so expensive these days. It’s either a dinner or a pumpkin.
Can this guy just release his toolkit as a set, so we dont have to go lookikg for these kits. 😂
Level 13 Skeletor goes to Mongolia
And James wonders why his family and friends stopped inviting him to carve pumpkins….
Level 0: Forgot to buy a pumpkin
I like to cut the bottom out instead of the top so I can set it over a lit candle.
I can’t find a lot of street sweeper pieces anymore but one alternative is the interior of a windshield wiper. I just take the metal insert out whenever I throw them away and make a new piece out of it. They’re much thicker but I use a diamond piece on a Dremel to shape them up.
Excellent instructions! Thanks!!!
Pumpkin carving gets you jacked! 🎃pun intended.

When people talk about a waste of food, look no further than the pumpkin
Of course the pumpkin carving expert carves the Platonic Ideal of a basic Jack o Lantern freehand with no draft lines in marker.
