Sticks from the sticks


A couple of pics of the much talked about Winding Sticks, as promised. They still need a sand and polish but thought you'd all like to see the work in progress. With both bench and block planes now flattened and sharpened, I've started on the next project: bread boards! Planing technique is definitely on the up (see what I did there?) though far from perfect.

Away from the workshop, went to Exeter on Saturday - via Okehampton (oh, and Waitrose!)
Not that I went looking for Waitrose or anything but there I was driving through Okehampton en route to Exeter and suddenly there it was. Right in front of me. Well, it would've be rude not to. Spent far too much but the Jackson Estate is helping me through.
