Green woodworking weekend - 26 and 27 May 2012

[Ian S]

Wooplaw Community Woodland (where the February skill sharing meeting was held) is having a two day green woodworking weekend, info here:

http://www.wooplaw.org.uk/?events=green-woodworking-weekend

Spoon carving, bowl carving, furniture (ish) making, all sorts of stuff, and an opportunity for a sneaky bushcraft meet?

You can make a shavehorse and/or pole lathes if you want, and you can book this via the site above. We already have a couple of people interested.

We're also hoping for a visit and demo from a Horse logger on the Sunday.

It's a 55 acre woodland, and camping/hammocking is available for those who wish to stay over.

Please let me know if you'd like any further info.

Cheers

I was thinking of coming down to see the horse logging anyway. If there as few camping for a couple of nights, I'll be happy to tag along.

I'd like to come along and meet some of you guys don't know about carving the only thing I've carved is the Christmas turkey and I make a mess of that but it will be a chance to try some of my gear.

Any chance of camping on the Friday too?

Definitely.

Dunno who will be there, and Friday might be quiet, but there are bound to be people staying over. You can camp up by the log cabin, in the campsite or wherever else you get your tent pitched.

Just remember drinking water, because Wooplaw doesn't have drinkable water.

Cheers

That's what it's all about.

Come along, wander round, watch, join in - it's all good.
