    Article: My take on a woodspirit carving tutorial

    What a coincidence! I bought myself some Flexcut tools over Christmas and started carving Wood Spirits. My efforts so far are amateurish and, I have run out of plasters for my numerous cuts to hand and fingures. This tutorial has been inspiring and of great help in planning the carving...

    Crack in Granfors Mini Hatchet

    Thanks to all who came to my aid and put my mind at rest. I thought that the eye was punched out of the hot billet but, it makes more sense when explained by all you makers out there. So I'll now keep my axe and my mouth "Cold Shut" and turn down the offer of a quid for the axe.:D Thanks...

    I recently bought a Granfors Mini Hatchet and discovered a crack propagating from the eye on the underside of the head. The crack only appears on the underside. The topside is clear. It may be a product of the manufacturing techniques or, it may be a result of a tighter than normal fit of the...

    How do i make a match case with shotgun shells

    Having selected two empty shotgun shells, preferably with deep collars. Trim the open end of one and, remove the collar of the other; this is acheived by gently heating the collar and sliding out the plastic case. You now have a trimmed cartridge and a cap that can snuggly fit on the open end...
