As the year draws to a close its time for this years Christmas project, I was going to do another Nutcracker this year however time has got away from me so that will have to wait until next year now. So here is the Christmas Gonk!
Made from Applewood.

Never heard of a gonk but I guess I’ll learn by the end of the video?!❤👍
Well, there are the Gonk droids from Star Wars...
Same
I watched the video till the end and have no idea what gonk is
@@magistaril8413 a Norwegian Gnome 🥰🥰🥰
being a Star Wars nerd, the title of the Video put me totally on the wrong track 🤣. Cute little fella! Merry Christmas
This is not the droid you are looking for 😁
So a Gonk is a Gnome in the USA! Technical difficulty a 10! Nice job, Matt .. and Merry Christmas to you and yours! ❤️
kzhead.info/sun/mtypfauxlqGteKM/bejne.html very good work
trust me, no American knew what a "gonk" was before watching this video lmao
Thanks Gina 👍
I like the vids where I have no clue what the title is, cos it's always a pleasant surprise at the end when we get to see the finished piece
So it appears that a gonk is more popular then his friends the gnomes and the hobgoblins. Who knew? 🤔 He is spectacular ❤️♥️ Thx for sharing your gift with the masses.
Thanks 👍
...I've watched others turn Gonks and some of them are beautiful...but you always take things over the top...this one is amazing!!!...very well done...🍻👍
Thank you
OMGOSH!!! How creative! I want one! ❤❤❤❤
this is the best Christmas virtual gift for me😊 Thanks a lot, Mr Matt! You`re really great master!
You're very welcome!
"There's no way Matt can turn a G... Oh! Wow. 😲
Thanks, Matt. I learned something, It's cute.
Glad you liked it!
I call that a gnome and I'm in love! It's so damn cute! 🥰
Hi Matt I love the Gonk it is really awesome we'll done. Have a nice Christmas. Amanda x
Thanks, merry Christmas to you too
Cute as hell. That said, incredible amount of waste for that tiny hat. Impressive.
Okay. That is amazing!!
Super tare 👍👍👍👍👍🍯
👍👍
This was fun because I had no clue what you were making until about 20 seconds before the video ended.
I came for the GONK!!!
👍👍
I was wondering what a gonk was. I was not disappointed.
👍👍
Simple and Beautiful 👍👍👍. Thank you for sharing. Be safe🇨🇦
Thank you! You too!
Beautiful gonk Matt. I first heard of gonk’s last year when I was turning gnomes. I guess gonk’s is a a good name for them.
Thanks Jack
I love gonks...they're my favourite decorations 😁 love how he looks like he sat a little to close to the fire so his butt is burnt, but that's what makes him extra special 💙😁
Thanks Heather
Great turning AND you solved the toughest part of the assembly for me! I always used hot glue around the edges and sometimes it can get messy. Your spray adhesive will now be my go to method. I also turned my Gonk in one piece including the hat but I like your method because of the contrasting wood/resin...adds a lot of possibilities. 👍👍👍👍👍
Thanks Larry, the spray adhesive is very good, just needs to be left for a couple of mins to go tacky and then straight on 👍
Thank you Matt.🙂 Now I too know what a gonk is!😄 Very cool, funny and cute! Nice job!!👍 Again, blessings and Happy Christmas! 🎅🎄
It is so cool
Thanks Logan

Got to love a Gonk, got a few on our tree. Merry Christmas Matt to you and your family, including the online family of fans!!
Thanks 👍
Very clever, nicely done. Thanks for the inspiration as always. Happy Holidays from MT
Thank you! Cheers!
Best Gonk I've seen!
I thought those were called gnomes? I prefer Gonk!!! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻❤️❤️❤️
One story is Gonks are more covered in hair and invented in the 1960s by Robert Benson. Another is they date back to the 1300s, either way I like them 😁
My Daughter has many Gonk`s, but none are as good as yours Matt. Just wish I had your talent mate. Merry Christmas to you and yours.🎅🙂
Thanks, you too!
I love content that makes me wish I had a skill

Nice piece. One question, was the Dremel to the rin to give it a slight wave?
It was, wanted a slight lift above the nose
it spin
👍
Very cool. What would it cost to get one made
This one's on my Website, link in description
Matt. When you clean up the burl do you ever use water also?
Not normally Mark, I know they do on a commercial level, but they also sell the burls by weight and not size, so when the get them wet..🤑
I expected a gonk droid
One day possibly 👍
Gonk meets troll
👍
Gonk droid?
👍👍
what is the red liquid u poured?
Epoxy Resin
Don’t know what a gonk is but it look absolutely beautiful great job and I love your work
Thank you! Cheers!
There's literally no wood left wtf 😆
Comment number 1👍

I love your work but your laithe practice does make me wince a bit sometimes... I'm genuinely surprised you haven't lost a knuckle yet. But I do love a good Gonk.
you probably take more time cleaning than crafting.
I have a good hoover 👍
