I'm not an axe expert,but. I bought a Gransfors Wildlife hatchet. It is really well made. It arrived quite sharp,but, after having a go at sharpening and restoring two old axes I'm quite confident of referbishing an axe head. I can even re-helve an axe to a very reasonable standard. If I were to...

Dremel+little sanding drum = 10 minutes :) if that!

Ah! probably the best method, if a little slow :slap:

That looks really good. What did you use after the wire brush? Once you have put an edge on the axe and stroped the edge on leather with metal polish the edge/bevel can look like a mirror. It'll look awesome when contrasted to the "grey" of the rest of the axe head.

I know, I know:o :sad6:

:sulkoff: Oh! I see, I'm not really this thick - honest:lmao:

But, again, what is that occupied round house (and other odd buildings)? Can anyone spend the night there or is it private,but I can't see how it could be "private" in the middle of council owned woods?

Cheers Sapper. I've met Dai, he lives in Holtsfield. I didn't know the Church by the spring was called anold! That's an odd name? The first picture I posted of a round house is not the one Dai built just up from Caswell car park. If think people are living in the round house near Anold Church...

I should have added- In the picture, the edge of the axe appears shiny as if there is a flat bevel to the edge,there is not, the bevel is convex (only) and is shiny/mirror like further up the bit that can be seen in the picture. It's as sharp as a very sharp knife too.

I wouldn't bother with wire brushes other than to get loose or dusty rust off. I use a Dremel with a coarse little sanding drum. But, you can also cut a circle out of a piece of wet'n'dry and touch the spinning abrasive side on the piece to be cleaned/polished. I have found that with a big piece...

Well done Tadpoll. That didn't take long. What on earth is it all about? Is it private land? I rarely seen people in the "compound" what is it all about? Sorry now I'm asking more questions than giving answers.:)

So is everywhere

Swansea covers one hell of an area! It's "near" where I live yes....... I was hoping for the "areas" name! I can see I should have worded this better :Thinkingo

Can anyone tell me where this is? It is on one of me and my daughters regular walks near our house. No prizes:D

Haha. Just worked it out. Thanks. I right clicked on the picture. when to properties, copied url. stuck it here! Cheers everyone:You_Rock_

Cheers Stev. I read the 'how to' and didn't get it. I'm half asleep off nights still. Do I just add some magic symbols next to the link? thanks M

Nice projects:) Here is mine. £2.50 and a couple of relaxing hours work well spent.
