This week. I’ve made a shave horse.
Also used a draw knife for the first time.

Bob did help a bit only because he’d finished what he was doing on the house.

Much respect coming your way from P. Looks very professional he says. Bit of an overkill to sharpen your pencils though I thought
You won't be getting me doing anything like that soon but I'm well impressed SC. Have you had the snow everyone's talking about down here .....and the power cuts?

He’s been on about making one for year.(29-11-2021, 07:10 PM)Small chilli Wrote: This week. I’ve made a shave horse.

Only had a light scattering of snow on the hill tops and a few flurries but none of it settled. No power cuts (yet).
