    Every mile on a river takes you further from home than every hundred miles on a road.

    I hope thats a birchbark canoe in your pocket.... - I guess i should give some credit to Metal Mug

    I'm off to Dartmoor at 9am tomorrow, for a couple nights, then from there over to the RV for the weekend. Not sure about after the RV, but I'll be sure to check in when I get back to civilization to see if you have started, and how far it's coming along if you have.

    Dremel? don't swear at me LOL, I cheated a little with smoothing and used a belt sander, but only because I hadn't cut the piece parallel. I pinned the printout to the piece at the extremes of each letter, chiselled the outlines roughly with a 1/4" chisel, then carved each letter out with a craft knife.

    Started another forged file knife (this one from a four in hand rasp I wore out), and also finished making a belt buckle.
