No worries, I got the stuff free, just fed it through the band saw. There's a patchy softness to it that means it turns poorly but with sharp tools it carves fine.
Im looking for some more of the bent neck gouges, I regret not getting them when I had the chance. I've plenty of normal straight in and outcanal ones but I find the bent ones a joy to use. I must sharpen them tonight to be honest, I was a bit lazy and bashed on with them when the hawthorn was being a bit tough.
I restored these Sorby goose necks a while back and apart from making a leather roll for them haven't touched them since.
To be honest I'm not sure if theirs a different technique for using them. Ill just have to bash some wood and see.
