  5. Dont really get parties like them anymore, what sort of stuff did you play?
  6. Thanks. Let us know how you get on with your carvings Jen, tbh you cant really go wrong with the frosts and for the money you wont find anything as cheap, and post some pics of your work. All the best. Simon.

  11. Yeh I'll try and post a few on this thread if thats alright with you?. Simon.
  12. Got a few, but really like the Natanoko and gomtaro find the Sugoi blades to be a bit thicker and dont seem to cut as well.
  13. Hi Jen. Spoons are a great way to start and bowls and cups are good too, the frosts knives and crook knives are very good tools, I've done loads of spoons they are good fun and they make good gifts. Good woods to use are Birch and Hazel very easy to carve. curved bits of wood split in half make good shaped spoons if you remove the inner wood it wont split when drying out, or if you want a break leave it in an unopened plastic bag away from heat. Hope this helps.... Simon.
  14. Thats looking great.
  15. Well good that.

    Dead Elms

    very nice.
  17. True enough.
  18. Would be good to have a Facebook page set up for Arbtalk members.
  19. Cheers, it does take a bit of patience, relaxing though. Does look like a Ray mears type dwelling just needs a layer of turf or birch bark on to keep the rain out and a nice long fire in front.

  24. Cheers, it made a change from the norm thats for sure, also made a change not to wear my chainsaw pants. Might make one for my garden but not as big though.
  25. Spent this afternoon weaving in new growth on this willow archway, long process but nice to do in this heat nicely shadded underneath. some of the growth was very thick and had to be removed as it had never been weaved in since it was built about 3 or 4 years ago, never done this before so made a nice change aswell.
