Carving the Abbeygate in Bury St. Edmunds – Wood carving [ASMR]



Timber Anew

I’ve lived just outside Bury St. Edmunds in Suffolk almost my whole life and The Abbeygate is a stand out landmark in the town. I decided to do this wood carving because my home means a lot to me and there’s some interesting history behind this gate.

It took around 15 hours to carve this piece and then another hour or so painting it. I used a mixture of white spirit and polyurethane to seal the wood carving and then thinned down oil paints were painted over the top. It’s made from lime wood.

This was made live on my twitch stream, twitch.tv/timberanew. I stream my wood carving there four days a week, would love to have you come join sometime.

    I've gone with a more ASMR approach to this video, tried to capture the sounds of the wood being peeled, sliced and chopped away. Let me know what you think
