1Wally 204 Posted January 29, 2015 Report Share Posted January 29, 2015 Haven't put as much on as usual so here's a few I'm on with. First is the Ally Scout I picked up off Flynndog today. It's brilliant but it's gonna take some finishing like. It's a perfect weight, you know you've got it in your hand but its not too heavy. Can't wait to get bands on it. Cheers Flynndog. Second one is a spalted Sycamore natural. I've been staring at it for a week and not started owt so today I went at it and started shaping it. This is about halfway done i reckon. After I've evened it out and smoothed it off I'm gonna get some wood stabiliser (hardener) into it in a vacuum, to give it more strength. Then I'll finish it as normal. It should be a nice one this. Probably put a pinky hole in the bottom too. Final one is a mini, (almost) PFS ergo. Made this out of a little Alder fork I had that was too small for owt else really. That just needs a bit of oiling. You can tell I like pinch grip catties 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
