Hazel spice container

[topknot]

Hi,

I made this spice container from a bit of Hazel.

How i made this was to drill out the Hazel with a speed bit to make the container then drilled the top with a small wood bit to meet up with the inside . The bottom was sealed with a round piece of Hazel then pinned in place. As to the top that was done with a knife .

Great work , I usually have left over bits of seasoned hazel from when I make walking sticks, and now I have a use for them other than whistles and practise woodspirits

I made something very similar to that a while ago, use mine as a needle case though

Swine!
As long as you stuck to leather and fabric I had aspirations of getting as good as you at making things...
Now you raise the bar again by making that beaut of a WOODEN impliment...
I have to face it... I will never match your skill levels!

So very true ...but I had aspirations if not hopes......
And the b*gg*r of it is - he is such a nice bloke too!
I could accept the situation much better if he was a twonk.....
Slim, charming, generous ... and all that skill too ... it aint fair!
