    Thanks it's lovely wood to carve slightly hard being as black birch is the hardest of the birches I was to but the outside knife cuts are almost glass smooth

    @palerider yeah they can be a pita to do especially if you've not done one before. Just takes sharp tools and the right piece of wood. Preferably green

    Here she is so far the bowl was carved into the bar side of the loge
