Leave the shavings there mate - they'll draw the damp air away from your tools. And soak up spilt cider!
If you stretch out both arms to represent all time on earth, then with one stroke of a nail file you could eradicate all human history, and 98 per cent of all human history was spent in the stone age.
Thanks Matt lol.@ Klause, liking the stringy things too
There's no brew without fire.
Ive got a knife on the go, I'll post pic's when I'm done but, though I've done a few before, I must admit I'm pretty excited about this one! Fingers crossed it all goes to plan!
I went up the woods a couple of days ago, ended up staying for over 5 hours. I spent most of the time carving a spoon from a piece of curved birch. Its been worked abit since these photos, and im now waiting for it drying so i can sand it and oil it.
Now this is the first ive done any carving in over a year, so be kind. Il post some more pics when its done.
