Update: Ring has been finished! Will post a picture after I've popped the question - just in case Dan is snooping on here! Mark was so lovely, gifted the wood from Dan's knife to me for free - and the ringmaker's were awesome too! All that's left is to plan something to say... 4 days to...

Update #2: deposit paid for the ring! Design has all been finalised, just waiting to receive the wood graciously donated by Mark Hill, to then get that inlaid in the palldium ring! Went to three more jewellers today to get sized (he's still a size P :D) and to have a look at some more rings...

Hahaha! I do have a sister, I'd like to think she's as cute and soppy as me, and would go to this length for her partner of choice - but at the moment she's a moody 15 year old, who has no interest in boys unless they can help her revise for her GCSEs! Thank you for the good wishes!

Update: Mark has a piece of wood from the exact block he sent Dan in 2013! I may well be able to get a ring made not only out of his favourite wood, but out of the exact wood he used to make his first knife, that ignited his love of the outdoors! So excited! Will keep you guys updated - next...

Hi guys, thanks for your replies so far: just a general point, regarding him seeing this - fairly certain he knows I'm not into bushcrafting, therefore in his mind I'm unlikely to ever set up an account here - so that bit of secrecy will hopefully be successful! Also with his Masters degree uni...

Pretty sure of the answer, we've been talking about getting engaged/wedding venues/similar for a few months, and he's the one who mooted the idea of me proposing due to it being a leap year! We're also both of similar mind when it comes to elaborate anniversaries - this way...

He's not been on here in quite a while, I'm hoping uni and work will keep him busy enough that he doesn't feel the need to do anything 'bushcrafty' for a little while! Pure hope, basically haha!

Hi all, New here and to BC in general.... have to confess, I'm on here for purely selfish reasons and don't really know much about BC. My boyfriend, Dan, who has an account on here - he's called Georann I believe? - is really outdoorsy and has introduced me to rifle shooting and lots of...
