Must have satisfying to cobble that together

Your probably right. I don't do facebook at all or any other social media, I do remember when arbtalk was busier, but still enjoy it as is ( excluding some tedious members who have almost gone away now) . Don't really have anything to compare to. Hpoc.co.uk seems alot slower than it used to be also. Fb sounds balls, from what I hear on here, although slagging off peoples boots does sound pretty tempting.

Not really familiar with the to.ber your using, but certain woods split worse than others. Latch cedar and sequoia are very stable, oak can be bad especially if carved from the round. I guess your climate will dry it out pretty fast as well. After carving try and let it dry slow. Keep in shade, and in cool if possible. Oil can help slow the moisture drying out, but ultimately trapping moisture in to slow drying/reduce cracking, brings its own problems, black staining, mildews etc. Some folk use decking oil, which usually contains antifunguscides etc. Personally I don't like using they chemicals, and not overly keen on the colour of alot of them

Holy smokes. Wonder when it will get here or be reviewed....

Pigeon? My guess anyways
