  • It really doesn't look difficult until you try. I've been learning that for weeks and still can't get a straight line. What I was captured by here is the way he sticks the chisel on top of the pinky. Most unusual but the outcome is fantastic. Gotta try this way.

  • @TheBoqu This way gives you more control over the chiseland makes it far less likely to slip but you would need really get used to it because it is painful at first.
