    Made my first char cloth!

    So, small victory and all, but I tried making char cloth last night and succeeded. I made two lots. I was worried at first that the hole I'd drilled in the tin was a bit too big, but it worked out OK. One thing I did learn about that though is that in the future, given the opportunity, I'll...

    Buying kit to last?

    No worries ;) My fur hat arrived today (And early gift I clumped in with an order to save on postage) and it feels a hair too big. I am going to cut my hair soon, so maybe that will help keep it on when I am bent over to pick things up or whatnot. If not I suppose I will tighten it at the back...

    Are the 'crook' knives the carving knives? They look really cool and that's a skill that would be nice to learn as well!

    Buying kit to last?

    The last 2 replies are what I worry about, because I see them as conflicting. One argument is that it will do everything and mow the lawn if I ask politely, the other says it's a singular use item. I will check out the videos nonetheless.

    Buying kit to last?
