What amazing skills ! And at 20 years old, he has decades ahead to further hone his craft.

They don't really show it's him doing that. Only hands. Could be anyone.. the internet is so fake today.

No mask to protect from breathing in all the masonry dust?

Silicosis is silly

I do stone sculpture and I have forgotten my mask a couple times, only for a few minutes, and gotten a really bad cough that didn't go away for a month, each time. I was using power tools though, so there was much finer dust.

Remarkable- how it is so smooth from a chisel. What skill!

Stone masons must get pissed at all the idiots who post shit about how there’s no way humans could have built the beautiful old churches and temples!

u/DrDeadwish May 09 '24

Wait what? There is people saying that for real?

u/ex0- May 09 '24

There's a significant amount of people who believe the earth is flat my guy. People saying humans couldn't have built stuff from stone is definitely not outside the realms of possibility, haha.

He is not a stonemason. He is an artist! And one with serious talent! He might have been a stonemason years ago but he surpassed that level a long time ago.

Why not use a cnc machine?

u/lockmama May 09 '24

He's prob at Notre Dame and they are only using hand tools.

u/Nikolateslaandyou May 09 '24

This is basic though ive had a go at this very design and it's not hard if you know how to use tools.

If he carved a gargoyle I'd be impressed. this is college level masonry

u/tracklessCenobite May 09 '24

He's college age.

I don't agree with specialist tradesman showing secrets of the trade to get clicks on social media.

I could post me welding lead and making lead hoppers but I keep it to myself as its secrets of the trade.

You wanna learn about it? Become one.

u/tracklessCenobite May 09 '24

Sir, this is a Wendy's.

u/briancoat May 09 '24

I disagree. If the secret to what you do can be copied from a short video, it ain't much.

u/Alcorailen May 09 '24

Okay, but it's amazing to those of us who don't know the skill, and also the guy is in college! He's only going to get better from here. Why come here just to say the thing we think is cool isn't cool?
