Anyone got an crafty plans?

[Tony]

I'm planning on taking a range of crafty things to do at the Autumn Moot, but I'm not sure what I'm going to actually get stuck into. I'd like to have a go at some woodspirits, so if anyone that's going has done any, I'd appreciate some pointers.
I think I'll try a few carving things.
I've got a few bits of leather so maybe some leatherwork...

How about you? Anything you're planning on having a go at?

I've recently purchased a knife blank that needs finishing and scaling. Hoping for some guidance on that.

Can't make it Tony, but that walking stick session (go find, harvest and then carve) was excellent.

I've got nothing specific in mind, I'll be taking my carving and leatherworking stuff and see how the mood takes me (I'll be fresh off a LARP event, so possibly making some armour pieces)

Kim's doing some stone sparpening and I will be tablet weaving. Just "hanging" will still make it a fine, fine week for me.

Yeah, I hear ya Paddy, relaxing will be good!

I quite fancy some stone carving, no idea how to do it though!

I was also thinking about doing some cooking on rocks, not done that for an age!

Tony, sir, where you looking to make a replacement for "David", The Kiss" or something a bit more down market??

Thinking about trying to carve a small spoon....make a net... Make a small basket... And practice my bow drill...... Although I may need six months rather than 3 days

If I was going, I'd have a go at making a kuksa and perhaps a spoon, alas, by that time I'll be trying to drive my car again !!!

Umm, just a pattern on a rock

Is there going to be a central crafting location?

 

[Tony]

I was thinking of getting some tarps up so that different things can happen at different places or we get a big one up and work under that, if the weathers a bit naff we can set up indoors.
My intent though is to have a good area under cover (maybe more than one) so that there's always somewhere to do crafts.
We'll also have a central fire area under the big chute.

how does that sound?

What ever happens.... it will be grand. Not lack of interest rather "knowing" it will be grand.

 

[welshwoodsman]

Sounds good. Just thought it would be good to see what others are doing and get inspiration
